Does any one think Tito will stay in the UFC if he wins. I am pretty sure if he loses he will sign with Elite xc? By tyhe way I think if Machida makes it to the late second round Tito will gas and Machida will K.O him :)

Tito's gone no matter what. And hopefully it's to HDNet. Cuban's no dummy, with Randy and Tito on the payroll, he goes from new low level MMA organization, to a top teir promotion, and will finally have a draw to a crowd more than just the hard core MMA fans.
Machida is the man. Such an interesting style to watch.

That's just amazing.
Does anyone else get the feeling Machida is being used somewhat to do Dana's dirty work? Have him stomp a few of the incoming "Pride guys" and now send Tito packing. I just hope he starts getting a little more recognition in the title picture at 205. He's been sneaking up most of the Top 10 lists around lately.
He could probably make the cut to 185, which is really in need of being shored up, but I'd hate to see him get stuck behind Anderson considering they both train out of Black House.
Speaking of, that camp is on point lately. They haven't had a fighter lose in something like 17 months. Two UFC belts, a WEC belt, and a guy in contention at 205.

Machida is an excellent fighter. He already knocked out franklin so he's definitely a beast...

I went to the last HDNet fights and it had some really great fights on the card. However there were a couple of fights on there that should not have even taken place. One guy was even dq'd for laying on the ground and refusing to stand up. It would speak volumes if HDNet signed Tito, I know they have a timid contract with Couture. Which by the way would be awsome if Fedor vs Couture finally happens..

the guy that laid on the ground is from my home town. He's done pretty decent in the past. Evidently he injured his foot in some of those kick exchanges.
Yea I was at that fight, I was wondering what he was doing flopping down there after the ref said not to a couple times :D

I heard he broke his toe. Looked like he just gave up.

i guess you don't think Machida is any good? or you're on of those REALLY big Tito fans that gets their heart broken when he talks shit and doesn't back it up.

no thats me, I used to alway go for Tito. There would be times when I would be the only Tito fan in the room. But he let me down the last 3 or 4 years. I think he did a good job as a coach but thats it. Im not gonna jump the bandwagon though and be a Lidell fan or a Rashad fan. I am looking for a new fighter to go for.

You can call him everything you want, He sells shows. Also I met the man and he was super nice. I met Andre Arlovski he was a super DICK. I met a couple of other mma fighters that were also dicks. Tito was a likeable guy.

I'm sorry. I thought the point of UFC/MMA was to win fights. I didn't know he had to sell shows, too. :p

I watch all the HDnet fights but man most of the fights suck balls. I think Tito already said he is out of the UFC after this? I hope Tito wins though.

I'm rooting for Machida.
Bigbird: Machida has awesome standup. He is very technical, and very precise. He picks his opponents apart.

I am not really bitching I did not know that the guy who got DQ'd was injured. I love to watch this stuff live. We did have pretty bad seats. The fights were not bad, I just think the talent pool will need to be deeper if they want to become bigger. Plus it pisses me off that Dish Network does not offer this chanel :(
