| alexander vs. machida... the buck stops here
i hate houston alexender (not like "wish him harm" hate, like yankees fans hate red sox hate). i wanna se him fight a guy that wont fight his fight and machida is that guy. i think machida would silence him. opinions?
i've been negd for my use of the word "hate", so i am sorry and i needed to clarify.

its not like Sakara wasnt a fighter who could test Houston. almost everyone picked Sakara to win. i am one who doesnt really care for a boring counter fighter like Machida. i would go out on a wim and say that Houston would KO him also.

I think this match would be interesting. I haven't seen Houston go more than 1 round, and with Machida he's either going to go 1 or 3. We'll be able to see his conditioning and his composure (after chasing Machida around the octogon for 3 rounds).

I dont think that Alexander is that great either, throw him a grappler and he would be done I think. Machida, Nakamura would do the job no doubt.

That would be the problem, Machida doesn't engage very much. It would be a stalking for 15 minutes. If I wanted to watch that I could just turn on How To Catch A Sexual Predator or some other NBC program.

Houston vs Machida....wow dangerous fight for Alexander and i think once Houston stops into the octagon with someone who will not brawl he will be woken up with surprise And Machida is a guy that would pick him apart very slowly....the only thing i beleive Houston has a huge advantage is when he pushes his opp. up against the fence.
Also as an added note.. i would like to houston go past the first rd...and see how he is..i think he was gas goin into the second rd or even deeper..

The guy has a 5 round decision win under his belt. Maybe you guys shouldn't be questioning his gas tank until you see it happen. Not saying he's the best conditioned guy out there, but I have no idea. I think with his explosiveness and power he can give alot of people a great fight.
