Machida fought exactly like he always does, the difference here is Lyoto had a dangerous fighter infront of him with a granite chin and a nuclear bomb for a right hand. Y'all are just mad because Machida fought smartly and wasn't knocked out.

No he "fought" even less aggressively then normal due to his opponent being just what you listed. Dangerous, great chin with knockout power. So he refused to "fight" at all. He didn't "fight" smart. He didn't fight at all. He didn't want any part of a fight and he made that very clear.
"I had to win tonight," Schaub said. "The last two fights I lost, I fought with my guts rather than my brains. But tonight I needed to win this, so I used my brain. I know people were expecting a slugfest, but I've been working hard on my BJJ and thought I could sub him. At one point, he was talking to me on the ground saying, 'Come on, dog, let's stand and give the fans a show,' and I said, 'Sorry, bro, I gotta win this fight.' And he said, 'I hear ya.'"
I don't blame him but I am a little bit peeved cause I had a small amount on Johnson.

White thought UFC 157 was "one of the biggest moments in all of sports". Okay. doesn't make the top ten women's sports stories of this year I think. Event really didn't seem like that big of a deal, overshadowed times 1,000 by Danica Patrick this weekend.

The porn star ? what did she do or swallow ?
NM I am thinking of someone completely different lol.
and i actually have to agree with Dana, if the fight between Hendo and Machida was the headliner a lot of fans would have been pissed because that fight was fucking terrible. Ronda kind of saved the ppv in that sense

You'd have to be pretty cynical not to recognize how momumental that fight was, doesn't matter how you feel about Ronda or WMMA in general the fact that headlined a UFC PPV is a big deal.
Danica didn't even finish top 5 after starting in the poll. Thats a bigger story than the first ufc womens headliner fight? How so? Honestly, i don't get it. You are the only person i've even heard bring it up.

Really, if Rondah wasn't budz the Diaz's, I flat out call you a liar if you claimed you gave a single shit.

Footnote in history. Should the show be around in 50 years, a Jeopardy question. Big for our sport, but not much more than a blip on the radar elsewhere. Dana forgot about that bubble he mentioned a few days ago.

It's big for WMMA. WMMA is smallest of fish in a huge pond of sports.
