was bs rua whopped on machida

on machidas twitter he has a link to one of the judges explaining how he won...Quote of the Day: A Judge's Defense of Lyoto Machida at UFC*104 - Bloody Elbow
The judge says “Lyoto made Shogun come after him….which in my opinion constitutes as effective Octagon control.” That is BULLSHIT... Shogun stalks Machida the whole fight, and then Lyoto gets credit for dictating where the fight will take place. Wow.

grappling, striking, aggression, and octagon control

that wasnt octagon control by machida, that should have been scored as aggression for shogun.

Great fight

ty

aye

even though i think shogun was robbed! i dont want 2 see an immediate rematch.. matter of fact i dont wanna see them fight again period!! machida & shoguns styles made 4 a horrible fight.. or should i say machidas unorthodox karate stylee made it pretty hard 2 watch! shogun in my eyes won all 5 rounds!

yea i heard he got robbed

Shogun Rua: The judges will say anything to justify their results at UFC blog for UFC news, results, videos, rumors, fights, pics and tickets — MMAmania.com

Quoteworthy:
“You just have to look at my face and his (Lyoto). I didn’t suffer one kick, only some knees but he has a rib broken neither get to walk and his mouth is stitched. They made some fighting analysis and I landed the double of hits. Will the judges say they didn’t see that? They will speak anything to justify the result. I feel pissed for my score (18-4), I prize a lot for it and I don’t consider this loss. I didn’t meet Lyoto after the fight but he’s a man I respect so much. He’s blameless, it’s judges’ culprit. Only them say the fight that way. I don’t blame Machida at all.”

Mauricio Rua fires back at recent comments made regarding the officiating for the UFC 104 main event that pitted the former PRIDE star against current UFC light heavyweight champion Lyoto Machida. “Shogun” appeared to be getting the better of the exchanges in their five round title fight; however, cageside judges Nelson Hamilton, Marcos Rosales and Cecil Peoples scored the contest unanimously in favor of “The Dragon.” While UFC President Dana White promised a rematch “as fast as possible,” questions still remain following the event as to the fairness and effectiveness of the current scoring system.
