Machida starts out so slow, that's what worries me about this fight.

Similar styles, but Machida is better at it than Rockhold. Luke is really good an CAN win this fight, but more times than not I'd take Machida to win. Surprised he is still an underdog and slipping.

Luke could win if he presses it early on.

Prediction: wrong Machida   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 3  

I got Lyoto winning this one. This fight should go 5 rounds but I'm taking Machida in the 3rd by TKO.

Prediction: correct Rockhold   wrong Decision  

This is a hard choice, as I want to see both fighters (as well as Jacare) getting a critical win here and potentially fight for the title.  Because of the height and reach advantage, I'm going to go with Rockhold winning a close decision victory; but, I wouldn't be surprised or disappointed if Machida won this fight.

If Luke and Jacare both win I'd like to see Luke get the shot, what with having beaten Jacare.

This made me change from decision to sub for Rockhold. Is Lyoto nursing an injury?
