Agreed. I just feel this fight is really going to come down to what happens once we reach the championship rounds. Rashad won't be finishing Shogun, so if the Shogun that came in shape at fought Machida for 25 mins shows up, I think he can outlast Rashad. Once Rashad tires and either A) cant secure the takedown or B) can't maintain it, Shogun knocks him out in the late rounds
