it's the beard. More importantly, how did Machida look against Mousasi? If he completely outstruck him for five rounds that's all kinds of impressive.

e: UFC 98 was my first non-recorded UFC event, so I'm super down with Machida and Edgar. Machida Era Forever.

Ok. Accept the possibility that Anderson Silva's chin and shin had turned to mush just before the first Weidman fight. If that's the case then he's previously only been tested by Mark Munœz and Jessie Bongfeld.

Under these circumstances the new, improved, handsome, fearless and fearsome Dragon is going to take him to the loving cleaners. In fact, you could make the case that this was all some elaborate House of Cards-like masterplan of passing the belt from Silva to Machida without having to engage in combat with each other.

Nobody is saying any of that it's just that Machida is a pretty drat good fighter and presents a very different stylistic challenge than Anderson.

accept the possibility that styles make fights, maybe
