Machado looks like he gets signed in the UFC, gets flash KOd in his debut, and then gets cut after losing his next 2 fights. Szaflarski…just stay off the burgers.

i wouldn't get too excited if i was Machado, he fought a guy that looked afraid to fight

Dana might give him a contract just due to HW needing bodies, but it won't be because of that performance

I do think Machado actually didn’t look as bad as people think. He was stringing strikes together very well and surprised me with his gas tank considering he went all 3 rounds and won the fight. He also has black belts in 3 different martial arts. Defo shouldn’t be in the UFC but he’d do great in a lower-lever promotion like PFL or LFA. Hell, he could even be ranked in Bellator.
