Let's see if Hendo can do better than Rampage did against Machida.

Come back after the Machida fight and revisit this post... It will pretty much even out...
Hendo got a close win over Shogun, gets destroyed by Machida...
Rampage got close win over Machida, gets destroyed by Shogun...
And how did Machida win that fight... Im hardpressed to find anyone who didnt give the first 2 rounds to rampage... Round 3 clearly went to Lyoto... the most eventful round clearly, but enough to earn a 10-8? dont know about that... and even with that its a draw...
Machida had just come off his KO loss to shogun, came out very tentative and gun shy... lost the first 2 rounds because of it... turned up the pressure in the 3rd... won it, but it was too little too late. He lost the fight.
