|  Shinzo Machida, Lyoto Machida's Older Brother, Plans to Fight for Zuffa in 2010
Bloody Elbow - Pound-for-Pound the Best in Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) Commentary, News and Community Quote:
Two Machidas in the UFC? - Shinzo Machida, Lyoto Machida's Older Brother, Plans to Fight for Zuffa in 2010:
"Actually, I just fought MMA to test myself, because Lyoto was already doing it, but in 2010, fighting in MMA will be one of my goals..."
"I think the 70-kilogram (155 pounds) class will be a nice category for me... It can be the WEC, UFC … let’s see"
Shinzo (1-1), although relatively inexperienced in MMA, has been the number one Shotokan fighter in Brazil for several years, and currently has a brown belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

Would be a VERY nice addition to the UFC LW division, name marketability, and if he proves to live up to the name, he could be a reason for BJ to stick around LW a little while longer. I cant wait to see what Shinzo can do in the octagon.
Who'd be a good debut match for him?

i hope to god that he doesn't turn out to be like fucking ninja rua. shogun is the shit and ninja just play sucks and always chokes when its time for the big show.
i wish him luck though. but coming from a japanese family, doing karate since he was young and being a brown belt in BJJ already counts for something. hope he kicks ass like lil brother the dragon

Most fighters want to fight in the UFC. But he's gonna need more then a last name to make it.

well he's 1-1 in mma with one first round tko due to soccer kicks and one first round loss due to a guillotine, so there's not really much to be made of him until we see him.
a fight with caol uno maybe?

Lyoto said that Chinzo has a much more agressive style, so I think there wont be marathons.
I think he needs a better record than 1-1 to enter the UFC (however there were people that entered in UFC with a 1-0 record with a win against a nobody), but who knows, maybe if he will be so succesfull as his brother, maybe in 2011 we will even have Chinzo vs Penn

Look at Jorge, Rich kept him in the UFC for a long time,and their not even related. This is what will happen. Ed will tell Dana that Anderson will fight, but only if Machida fights on the same card. Dana will agree then Machida's borther shows up instead of Lyoto,lol.
