"When you push him, he always moves to the same side. " This is probably the part of that statement to be focused on. Not the number of weapons. Number of attacks only matters because it makes you harder to defend against. Predictability in movement gets you killed. |

I think a lot of you are missing the point. And he even admitted "I'm gonna get a lot of heat now." heh. |

Are there even 5 fighters in mma with more tools than Machida?

ajl416az - machida consistently: That's what I got from it as well. At first glance it might sound ridiculous but there is some truth to what Bas is saying. In terms of what he throws, when he throws, his movements, etc, it's stuff that can be picked up on |

epic hero -.ajl416az - machida consistently: If Dan can figure out that puzzle, he's got this fight in the bag. Machida is good, but Dan is better.

Bas is an extremely biased guy. He will blindly back his friends instead of being impartial

Dirty Harry didn't have many weapons either.
In fact, he had only one.
A .44 Magnum.
And it will blow your head clean off.

LOL "Machida has a repetitive style". Dan is always so inventive and uncoventional himself. Barrel straight ahead, haymaker, lather rinse repeat. This shit goes both ways. |

You're right Bas. Machida has no power in his hands
It's just his counter right that's effective. That's it.
Well he can't finish you when he has you hurt.
But he's limited to his hands. No striking ability besides that.
Lucky kick, plus - kicks and punches don't make you a well rounded striker.
Please. His knees don't do any damage.
Being a good striker doesn't mean you have a lot of weapons. He has no way to get the fight to the floor.
That's just a gimmicky leg sweep. He couldn't take down a decent wrestler.
Takedowns are cool, but he can't finish you on the ground. No power in his GnP.
GnP is overrated. A truly dangerous fighter has to be able to submit someone.

rnunz -In a parallel universe Bas would be saying all Dan does is throw out the half arsed leg kick to set up his big right hand. For the record that's not my opinion but that of the Bas Rutten of Earth-2.

Unless hes willing to admit publicly that he has developed early onset dementia I've officially lost all respect for Bas based on this bullshit comment. |
