Constantly?

This was not a screw job. He did not do enough in this fight. I'm a big machida fan he was screwed with the Phil Davis fight and rampage, but not this he really wasn't there in this fight

He landed one punch in 15 minutes

@Weghweh Hwewehwhe they've been fighting for such a long time now, so many fights. I can't believe how great they still look for such a lengthy career.

@Weghweh Hwewehwhe They did fight in 2014. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UFC_Fight_Night:_Machida_vs._Mousasi

@Weghweh Hwewehwhe They did fight earlier several years ago. Machida won that one

Mousasi was never given the attention he deserved in the UFC

Not Mousasi’s case. He left himself willingly

Cala a boca seu afeminado.

@@abumarcus9521 a rare case, but they offered him a better deal so I might understand that!

Mousasi is a boring scared fighter..entire three rounds , he never came forward

mike beltran is the man

He stole a moussasi 's bout years ago, in moussasi vs keith jardine

@Weghweh Hwewehwhe . . . flawless . . . victory .

Asterix won

I like to think he goes back to forging battle axes and war hammers after he ref's fights.

what would be different i would have fallen asleep? it was a 2-minute scuffle...

casual

i love big butttts

k c Loving on big butts is productive.

great way to put it. but sometimes these matchups have to happen and watching them being technical can be great to watch & study

Absolutely true. Not that I would expect any fighter to walk into punches just to press the action but COME ON...at some point you gotta be able to make something happen. This waiting game for the opponent to make a mistake is only making you tense up and then, when those hands need to go, you freeze or you overcommit, so yeah I think you should be able to fight more than just one style. Machida is who he is (and I hate that type of fighter) but for a fighter of MOusasi´s caliber it was just lame to not make adjustments

Watch their first fight

Yep just like Woodley vs Wonderboy, total waste of time.

Exactly. Most of the time, this happens. Every now and then you'll get a finish out of the blue, if you're lucky.

Nobody wanted to be the first to make a mistake.. however I credit Machida for taking that risk with the head kicks, even though he then lost balance and had to pull guard.. he still landed more shots from the guard and nearly submitted Mousasi..

00pp000

Nick C HAHAHAHAHA NO.

How is a guard gay? I don't see what's wrong with his guard

@@konoha1993 you dumb 🤣

@@bosco2.087 i wouldn't say he's dumb. Just a little clueless tbh lol

GAY GUARD MOUSASI

First two rounds are heavily debatable. Whoever you pick that "won", those rounds won by razor thin margin. 3rd to me was clearly machida. He landed just as many sig strikes, landed more on the bottom and put gegard in serious danger at the end. Up to that point what could be called a solid strike from gegard on machida was the best of the fight and it wasn't a knockdown or anything just a solid shot. I'd say 29-28 Machida. I feel like he won either 1 or 2 and to me clearly won the 3rd.

@@Vegeta68041 How could Machida win the first two rounds? always going backwards throwing kicks to just keep distance, Mousasi had control of the octagon and better strikes.

The third round is not clearly Machida either. The things that score points is kicks, shots that land and ofcourse a takedown is a big scoring point as well. Machida landed a bit from the bottom the first few seconds, but that wasnt anything substantial. he was just taken down and put some pressure on him but by tapping him a few times. Also at the end.. the quiotine.. isnt actualy a thing that scores points unless he taps. Which he didnt. Then all it is is just a position.. wrapping his arm around his head. thats not an actual scoring card point.

Looked like 2-1 Mousasi to me. Won the first two; Machida took the 3rd.

So where was the 10-8 round? I don’t think you understand how the judging works it’s impossible to call this fight a draw that’s not how it works

Lol

Wahahahahha

that's a rare insult.

Art Hillis Dude wtf. Accurate comment.

This fight sucked michael venom page & finishers only

Although Machida almost had the submission. He barely had anyvstrikes. Fell down like 3 times. Took some combination punches to the head. The Other guy did more. Machida waited till the 3rd round ti rev it uo, but then it dies down pretty quick and was back to the xhess fight. The other fuy git on top but is clearly not a grappler ir submision expect and so Machida gotvthe jujitsu choke, but the clock ran out.

I called the fight for Mousasi but 30/27 is ridiculous. Gerard landed more significant strikes/damage but Machida was never in any real trouble.

Mousasi was more dominant all rounds. Simple as that

@@SuperCucko Yeah this is my problem with 10-9 vs 10-8 judging. I can totally see gegard getting 10-9 for the first 2 rounds. But machida just plain put gegard in more danger at the end of the 3rd and clearly won the 3rd with good strikes, more strikes from bottom and the super close sub compared to good strikes and one takedown that absolutely nothing was accomplished with besides getting clobbered and almost subbed. So the clear 3rd for machida is a 10-9...because to get a 10-8 the other fighter has to completely be dominated the whole round but that's worth the same as gegard barely outstriking machida in the first two? Like I see gegard winning by round. But I feel like Machida won the fight. Machida was never in any danger besides being slightly dazed by a good shot but not knocked down or anything 10 more seconds he might of subbed gegard. I hate fights like this.

@@GinoNL Lol that's criminal to say gegard dominated all three rounds. He got one good strike in and one takedown. Besides that all he did was barely outstrike machida. Machida got a few good head kicks, clobbered gegard on the ground while gegard strugged to land anything after takedown and almost got the sub.

Your right but these two in this fight basically just cancelled each other out. I do love strategy but this had a little too much.

Said no one ever

Lima just Shadaap and faak off you pussy

@@nicolaschophi4080 in english please

Not fun at all, pretty lame actually

Its funny. No run into his fist.

you are the type of guy who love watching ngannou vs lewis

@@Silent43192 not really. much less chess in heavyweight..... more of a timing game than anything.

Lyoto is still the best

É uma lenda mais luta muito chato

I don't know about the not wanting to push Machida, but i thought he won as wel 2-1. I don't understand the scoring. TBH, i think Mousasi was kind of surprised also.

🙄

Ya so original

@@rastamon5969 your sarcasm is seething lmfao.

Lyoto "The Sleeping Dragon" Machida

Definitely not a fire-breathing dragon in this fight.

P mim ele venceu ! E passaram a mão.

Cause he got ragdolled and lossed the belt before this fight. Raphael Lovato is a monster.

@@too_sturdy Give me a break, that juicehead won on rounds that he controlled, but Gegard beat his ass, dropped him, and almost finished him twice.

I had it 1st and 2nd round for Mousasi

JON-SAB MOTO -Same, but 2nd was close as well. Either fighter winning would’ve been fine. That 30-27 judges card is the only negative thing

Machida did fall to the ground the 3rd round. Its cuz the other guy lacks jujitsu, grapling and submision skill. He had combos and was the agressorvfor all 3 rounds.

@BIGMONEYJEFFAFA MAchida had the better strikes (including kicks) and the better ground game in round three. The first round was a slight edge to mousasi, the second was very close.

Honestly who cares. Machida didn’t do any damage in the ground. A few weak slaps. The choke wasn’t a real effort, he was just running out the clock since he was on bottom.

The thing is Mousasi didn't have control on the takedown. He was on top, but Machida was consistently striking, consistently moving as to keep Mousasi from getting into mount. It was all Mousasi could do to keep Machida from returning to his feet, but he in no way won that ground exchange

It's for the old school MMA fans, these guys are legends.

Its highly technical, both are very good fighters

@@czardavid6710 obviously but you're not gonna bring in fans by showing them this fight. It was hilariously bad. And I love the sport already.

@@timoteojuans1964 It wasn't "bad". You just thought it was boring, probably because you don't have an appreciation for these particular fighters, know their styles, histories, etc. Was the action a bit slow? Yes, but that doesn't mean it was a bad fight.

@@yugen I appreciate Mousassi a lot actually he's an excellent fighter. But that wasn't the issue. The issue was their style nullified each other and it was boring. And my point was that Bellator shouldn't have made this a showcase fight for the sport because it isnt going to bring people into the sport.
