  3. Alex Says:

    GO LYOTO!

  6. Rodrigo Says:

    Lyoto you have the best fighting style in the ufc and thats why you are going to win the remach.

  7. Dr. MMA Says:

    LYOTO!!! KILL!!! KILL!!! KILL!!! Leave the decision to your FISTS & LEGS…not to the judges! Make them pay for doubting you! Just something you might want to notice carefully that happens during the fight…Notice that Shogun IS actually scared of you when you pressed him, that is, if you continue attacking after his one counter move. I see that consistently throughout the fight. F*** the critics! You ruled the fight! The Machida Era is here to stay.

  8. Jesus Says:

    This will make Lyoto an even better fighter. Lyoto will be the clear winner in the rematch.

  9. Sérgio Minehira Says:

    Lyoto, novamente eu postando aqui no seu site…
    vai descansar e quando voltar, estude o shogun… estude-o sua luta contra ele, pense numa forma de derruba-lo com mais facilidade e não esqueça q ele também está pensando que vc está pensando o ponto fraco dele, assim ele pode se antecipar… então… abra a mente de possibilidades… vc é o melhor pra mim.
    Abraços
    Sérgio Minehira

  11. Liana Says:

    Lyoto is my hero and he won that fight fair and square. Can’t wait for the rematch and more of his fights to come!

  12. seba Says:

    im sure lyoto will make shogun pay next time around. he will leave no doubts in the rematch, if that is all shogun has then he should start training even harder.

  13. Danny Diep Says:

    go lyoto knock him out first round!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  14. samurai Says:

    This fight with Shogun will make you and teach you to become the future BEST from here on forward Lyoto!…..now u know yourself better after that fight. I know u have the samurai spirit and you will learn how to deal with Shogun’s Mauy Thai striking the 2nd time around. I will be looking towards your future battles and I will be cheering you on.

  15. Mychal Says:

    Lyoto your the best cant wait until the rematch

  16. Prof Benito Olmos Says:

    Caro Lyoto,
    Primeiramente parabéns por sua soberba performance. Poucos entendem o que você realizou durante a luta: controle da distância e tempo contra o mais formidavél adversário de sua ilustre carreira. Como se isso não bastasse você frustou todas as tentativas de levá-lo ao solo com maestria. Em minha humilde opinião o seu condicionamento foi o único detalhe que não estava perfeito mesmo considerando o ritmo e a quantidade de golpes absorvidos. É indubitavel que tecnicamente você possui os melhores treinadores possíveis começando com seu pai. Concentre-se na planificação de seu treinamento com mais rigor e você desfrutará de um longo reinado.
    Um abraço e bastante saúde e sucesso!!!
    Prof. Benito Olmos

  17. Hyo Sang Yoon Says:

    I’m a hugh fan of you Lyoto and the you definitely won the fight. I gave you 1,2,3 and 4,5 to Shogun. Even though Shogun came out with a good strategy, that wasn’t enough to beat the dragon. Go Lyoto!
    I hope you knock Shogun out in a rematch.

  18. killingfrost Says:

    Agree with DJ JSTORM and Jeff, Machida’s entrance music for the next match should be ” Your the Best” By Geraldo Esposito- KK movie soundtrack!

  19. From everywhere Says:

    you have the spirit man !
    you give lessons to a lot of people by your way of fighting and your personalty, beyond the UFC and the sport in general. You have that other haven’t.

    You surpass the competition and in fact represent the MMA at your own.

    People believe in you, and care of you

    Never give it up (i know you won’t), and keep improving. we are pride of you. And thank you for the power you give to all of us by your existence …

  20. adam Says:

    your superior is that why you looked so busted up show him what your made of what like u did in the first fight your a joke i didnt know your got busted ribs an a busted up face from “just chopping legs” you tried to knock him out you say if you did then an your the apparent champion then why didnt you actually he looked fine when the fight was over i cant wait to see him knock you out you dont have the power

  21. sam Says:

    lyotos the man

  22. Hyo Sang Yoon Says:

    Adam. just shut up and wait until they fight again.
    We will talk again after the rematch.
    Lyoto will win again anyway though.

  23. Jawn Says:

    One word: Bullshit

  24. mark Says:

    Lyoto said he’s going to patch the wholes in his game. Shogun could win the rematch or he could have just created a monster.

  25. riccardo Says:

    to fight one must have strength:50% physical AND 50% mental and u obviously have both…many fighters don’t have this, shogun will up his game plan, but u will up yours with what you’ve taken from that fight, he found an opening in this fight, which was your legs…he knew he couldn’t hit u with his fists, so he had to find some other way to attack and that was your legs…try and dominate shogun’s legs this time.mentally, shogun is not up to par, but u are; use this to your advantage! good luck and God bless in your next fight!

  26. bruno Says:

    What i saw was that you sometimes stroke Shogun strong, but he is like Matt Sera, he will never be rung, and finishing him will be always difficult. This is not the only way to win a UFC figth, even if it’s a very honorable. others ways : wound him enough that referee will stop ( as Georges Saint Pierre does with Matt Sera ); submit him. Usually, you finish wave of punches with a high kick, Shogun defends with his arms, so if you do high kick each time he tried to reverse you, back to the rope, one good kick ( maybe midle) should be enough (need only one). A chance that legs protections are not authorized, even Shogun wouldn’t definitely win. You’re the best. Does the fighting spirit be with you.

  27. faustino Says:

    he won end of story machida rocked his world! cant wait for remach, go machida!!!!!!

  28. Chris Says:

    I have watched the fight several times, and I am a big fan. I would have to agree the opinion of the fight was swayed by the announcing as well. I have watched the fight without sound and it makes a difference. Did you take more damage than in past yes. Does that mean you lost the fight no. Train Hard and prove all the doubters wrong. Dont listen to everyone leading up to the fight and work with Andersen Silva . Your the Champ and wish you the best.

  29. nathan Says:

    I’m tired of this shogun situation. Machida clearly won in a close fight and if it wasn’t for joe rogan it would be clear!.

  30. Lucas Says:

    Sou carateca há 15 anos. Fico feliz por estar representando espetacularmente essa arte marcial. Mas, acho que vc e seus treinadores deveriam repensar sobre a opinião de vocês quanto a sua vitória contra o Shogun. Foi uma luta muito dura para os dois. No entanto, o Shogun apresentou uma estratégia fantástica minando suas pernas. No final do 5 round vc já estava com dificuldade para caminhar. Portanto vc não pode acreditar que vc foi mais contundente que o Shogun.
    Como seu Fan, gostaria que mudasse esse seu discurso e desejo boa sorte na revanche

  31. Carlos F-Feo Says:

    Oss sensei!

  32. Baku Says:

    Finish the fight the way you did to Rashard. This is not only for the fans, it also to shut haters mouth.

  33. Ismael Says:

    I think showgun won that fight, and if they were to have a rematch, showgun would win again. Showgun is a much stronger and faster fighter.

  34. marin Says:

    You are gonna get killed lyoto, shogun is not gonna be playing this time, you FUCKED UP.

  35. peter Says:

    yeah lyoto go forward show for the world the power of shotokan karate ( nihon karate kyokay oss ) the spirit of the samurai never fails, ever take shogun down

  36. beth Says:

    Shogun won the fight and it sucks that Lyoto got the decision. I like both fighters so I didn’t care who won and it was pretty clear that Shogun was robbed. If Lyoto had any integrity, he would have given the belt of Shogun and asked for a rematch.

  37. Kleiton Ferreira Says:

    Machida não é somente um lutador, é também um ícone, uma resposta à desesperança e ao medo de vencer. Nunca pensei que naquele ambiente de selvageria e luxúria, um homem (ainda mais brasileiro, para reforçar nosso orgulho) pudesse mostrar disciplina, técnica, arte (não se esqueça: M.M. “arts”), velocidade, concentração, coração, amor e vitória de uma maneira não espetacular. Foi difícil conter a estática de meus pelos quando ouvir aquelas palavras: se você tem um sonho, siga em frente, é possível. The Dragon is not only the Champion, is a life style too.

  39. Carlos Henrique Nogueira Says:

    Lyoto,admiro seu estilo dentro e fora da arena, só não acho legal sua preocupação excessiva com os fãs e com o aspecto comercial q sua carreira está tendo. Acho q estas coisas atrapalham sua concentração. Aliás, tive a ligeira impressão q Maurício Rua preparou-se com mais cuidado para a luta.Parace q estava mais concentrado. Digo isto com a autoridade de quem torceu por vc, apesar de também ser fã do Shogun. Mas quem assiste a luta não tem idéia do q é estar no octógono, sei disso. Espero vê-lo ainda melhor na revanche. Abraço.

  40. Kleiton Ferreira Says:

    Concordo perfeitamente com o Carlos Nogueira. Essa é a hora de esquecer todo o ambiente de marketing e se concentrar. Nada de autógrafos, fotos, comerciais e o blá-blá-blá da mídia. É sempre bom lembrar que a vida imita o cinema e digo isso porque, enquanto Rocky Balboa (Rocky III) treinava o seu marketing, o desafiante Clubber Lang treinava sem parar… e olhe no que deu. Por isso, essa revanche é sua. Mostre que o Dragão ainda é o campeão.

  41. Ruben Says:

    Shogun who?

  42. david Says:

    lyoto is the best he will beat machida again

  43. cane Says:

    yeah what the one guy said if shogun could have won the fight he would have actuly finished it but he didnt

    one more thing lyoto is to elusive to hit to elusive

  44. pablo Says:

    gracias por devolver el respeto por el karate creo que shogun no es oponente centra tu practica en nahanchi kata
    usa la cintura con la practica gira el torso con los movimientos y una nueva vision para ti.

  45. pablo Says:

    practicando asi podras tener nuevos angulos de golpe durante los combates.

  46. Carlos Junior Says:

    Lyoto é o melhor lutador do UFC. Uma pessoa de muita fibra que não tem medo quando entra no octógono. Um cara família, dedicado, focado e disciplinado no que deseja. Você será o vencedor da revanche. Concordo com o Kleiton Ferreira com o assunto do marketing. É necessário foco e concentração. Se você tem um sonho, siga em frente, é possível.

    Machida is the best fighter in the UFC. A person of a lot of fiber that has no fear when he enters the octagon. A family man, dedicated, focused and disciplined in what you want. You will be the winner of the rematch. I agree with the Kleiton Ferreira with the subject of marketing. It’s necessary focus and concentration. If you have a dream, go ahead, it is possible.

  47. Sebastian Says:

    I have watched the fight many many times, and still have no idea where did people get the idea that Shogun had won…
    I checked every single strike from both, everyone’s opportunities to finish the fight and i gave all 5 rounds to Machida.
    All they say is, Machida’s lip was busted.
    Come on… we all have seen really bloody and busted up fighters knock the opponent out, or submit him and make him tap…
    So. lets be neutral and watch the fight closely…
    Machida won fair and square.
    And i’m 100% sure he will win the rematch, and wont leave it to the judges…

  48. May Says:

    machida, marry me!!!!

  49. rafael guerreiro Says:

    LYOOOOOOOOOOOOTO TAMO CTG, BRASILIA VAMO LA TU É FERA CARA!

  50. rafael guerreiro Says:

    LYOTO KILLED matyas!!!! now

  51. matyas Says:

    demorO.PODE VIR OS DOIS!!

  52. Jun Fan Says:

    Go Lyoto!
    Circle to the direction his lead leg is in.
    He cant use his power leg then, easy!.
    You won the first fight, now beat the doubters, you are the future of mma and long may you reign!!

    Rain the Pain!.

  53. Rich one Says:

    Shogun didn’t earn his title shot and doesn’t deserve a rematch. Lyoto needs to crush him with the power of the burning dragon if a rematch occurs,anytime we have a decision it always leads to speculation.Submission ,ref stoppage ,ko or tko will leave no doubt in anyones mind. Lyoto a true champion with respect and humility. We love you in Australia and can’t wait to see fight again soon ,I’ve got tickets to ufc110 in Sydney Cant F***** wait
