| b4 the first fight lyoto was immersed in the whirl wind which came with bringing the belt home. Parade's, interviews, leaving the training facility because of the buzz.
Much different circumstance here, for the past however many months, Lyoto has been hearing how he did not win that fight, how Rua should be the champ, he's heard it from the media, he's heard it direct from Rua.
Now I don't doubt that Machida maintains a high level of focus no matter the circumstances, but I do think that to some extent he will have a chip on his shoulder coming in, and I have to believe it's an advantage he did not enjoy in the 1st fight. | |

| To me that shit is overrated! They both will try extremely hard cause it is for the title and I expect both to have plenty of motivation. | |
