UFC 157 Post-Fight Press Conference Highlights Video

I watched the whole UFC on pay per view and I never saw Machida fight. I did see him in the ring with Henderson though, but never any fighting.

Hendo looked too old like Couture did when he fought van arsdale. Machida is still way too smart to get in a slug fest with Hendo. Machida clearly won every round IMO.

I had a totally open mind going into this card, but now it’s over and I’ve seen the “Main Event”, I have come away very underwhelmed and disappointed! Oh surprise… an arm bar. A 1 trick pony champion vs. competition that isn’t even on par! Whenever a fighter can’t be taken past the 1st round in 6 or 8 fights, then that tells you how deep the competition is. Not At All!

What really did it for me, was how some lesbian in the media just had to turn this thing into a sexual orientation event with he question of Carmouche about how important it was to have the “Lizbos” there to support her, yada yada yada. What a disgusting travesty that was in my opinion. Not because i dislike gays, but because it is a sporting event, not a gay pride conference and it had absolutely no place in the post fight conference! I’m disappointed!

I don’t know, round 2 Machida was backing up the whole round, landed like 3 strikes and you give him the round? I’d give Hendo round 2 just because Machida was running away for 5 minutes.

This is not Karate, it’s not about scoring points, or at least it should not be IMO

Lol at the guys saying Hendo should have one. You think Machida is dumb enough to stay in the pocket and trade with Hendo give me a break… He won and Octagon control is crap It should be called Control of the fight. Machida implemented his game and Dan didn’t…

Karate beat TRT that is all

cutu2bad, Can I give you a yellow card for your terrible use of grammar and punctuation?

Women’s mma has no talent, except for B level fighter Ronda Rousey.

All you idiots who thought Hendo won need to watch it again. Machida struck Hendo CLEANLY every time he came in with knees and strikes, while never getting hit cleanly even once. Some weak a.s.s leg kicks from a guy who generates NO POWER kicking is the only thing Hendo could do. Just look at the 2 fighters. Hendo looks tired and beat up in the post fight conference, Machida looks like he just had breakfast and had ZERO damage done to him.

Yeah, that’s really running all fight and doing no damage. Hendo charging in and getting hit or KNEED HARD and getting blocked to the ground is also called take down defense as well.

Go to fight metric and click the Decision/TPR tab. Fightmetric has Machida wining all 3 rounds based on DAMAGE and quality of strikes.

Hendo throwing worthless pitter patter and MISSING every single hard strike shows up in the decision scoring.

Look they got cautions for being playing it too safe and defensive in almost all martial arts, don’t act like it is some wild concept, they’ve been doing it for years in most martial arts competitions.

Machida would get cautions left and right if this was wrestling, judo or TKD.

BS Gene… they showed the punches landed and Hendo had a 28 to 5 advantage in body strikesm, which is calaculated seperate from leg kicks. Machida had advantage in head strikes 25 to 8 and takedowns were even and leg kicks were even.
