i love this guy… soo much passion!!!!!
too bad he had to take out my homie rashad for the title
He deserved every minute of it
heros welcome from machidas home country, while evans gets a big “told ya so, and bout time” from his. lol
rampage gona whoop this poser!
black hampster:
Rampage is not smart enough to beat Machida, his last fight with Jardine was horrible. Besides, Rampage has to get through Rashad first before he gets another title shot.
Errrr….what were they saying?
great scot , does this mean theres
going to be a national lyoto machida day
in brazil,karate is back on the map , baby
I agree with tilegendit…
He deserved every minute of it !
I love rampage too but machida would work rampage.
I wonder if the SPIDER, BIG NOG, WANDY and SHOGUN got the same reception when they won the tittles in PRIDE and the UFC. Lyoto’s a great guy.
HOW do you even think for a second that this guy is a poser?!!! Are you 12? He has been humble, gracious and passionate. The guy is living his dream. Why don’t you try and do that in whatever it is you do?
subtitles please!
Rampage punked out and opted to fight Rashad….
I think he’s a great ambassador for the sport, but think the little kids in guis would of showed up if he lost? Kind of doubting it.
Rampage is going to whoop him eh? Then why did he dodge a certain title shot to coach TUF to take take on someone who isn’t the belt holder? Doesn’t look to confident to me.
He deserves it.
Don’t feed the troll, guys…
This just shows how far the UFC’s come – This is an awesome site to see.
If only the rest of the world would embrace there fighters with such emotion and passion.
Man he deserves this!
So glad they made him a party
This is well deserved. The title is in good hands.
It’s well known that Brasilians will celebrate anything to form a parade.
shogun shall win
i hope he will hold the belt for a long time…like fedor in the hw-division! both are smart guys who can beat everyone in theire division….
Who gives a fuck. He won a fight…he doesnt deserve a holiday. How do you people even know, without subtitles, that these people are happy he won. They probably hate him and wish rashad would have won.
Shogun all the way, Shogun vs machida for title
Whoever asked for subtitles:
It’s a local reporter talking about how the people of Para’ (a relatively poor state in the north of Brazil for the geographically challenged) received him as a hero.
The biggest point (not what she said) is that not many great fighters come from that state as they usually come from richer regions like Rio or Sao Paulo (A. Silva is from Curitiba, Parana’ – another rich city in the south of Brazil).
Machida really had to overcome a lot to become a champion (though most fighters do) and put karate back in the map since the fall of Chuck Lidell and his Kempo Karate.
Where were the strippers!?
pretty cool. thanks bruno
lol yea right i was lookin for those awesome asses u always hear about
Black Hamster… are you the reincarnation of black gerbil?
Oh man, good for him.

I don’t think anybody is too confident of fighting him.
machida wont have the belt for long…i dont think his style will last
I just bought $20k in Karate stock.
just a diffrent feeeling. all props to lyoto!!! hold on to the title dawg! peace!!!
Cool story bro.
What a great guy. He’s smart, humble and talented. Hope he will stay as champ for long. Feel sad for Rashad though.
Black rodents rule this forum, lol
Why are they cheering? Fast marathon ever ran in the octogon? I agree with B gerbil this dude is a joke. They probally waiting for some money lmao.
It’s time for Machida to stop running from Kimbo and step up to the fight game.
Fastest marathon in the octagon?
I bet you were one of those talking about how boring he was too, until he KO’d Thiago, and kicked the crap out of Rashad…..weren’t you?
Cavemen can’t hold the title in the UFC.
Why are all the stupid comments from “black” people??? LOLOL
his fights were boring untill the last 2. i laugh when i here people say “o u were probaly one of those people who thought he was boring n now you dont” lol, yea cause he was, n now hasnt been.its pretty simple.
duh
I find people who say technique and masterful footwork are boring quite amusing. This is mixed MARTIAL ARTS. Emphasis on MARTIAL ARTS. If you want to see two dumbasses stand their and brawl like drunken idiots in bar, go watch the WWE. Lyoto is a true martial artist that uses his years of hard training and flawless martial technique to overwhelm his opponents. He’s the next generation of fighter that will raise the bar for the entire sport and flush out the old dinosaurs ala Liddell, Rampage, Coleman, and Shogun.
I’ve seen a hamster, titmouse, and a gerbil. Hey bruno, I think it’s time to feed the python.
