Shogun wins the 205lbs title
 

There was no thread so fuck it.

They haven't announced it yet but it would be a total screwjob if he didn't.

48-47 to Machida. SCREWJOB

WHAT?!?!?!?!?! MACHIDA FUCKING WINS??

What the fuck is this shit? Is Vince Russo booking this?

It was 50-45 to Shogun. 49-46 AT WORST

what a fucking shambles, fuck.

There is no fucking way they legitimatly scored the fight like that.

Fuck it, Machida didn't win two rounds. Not even fucking close

I stand by the title of this thread. Shogun is the champion.

Pretty shocked at the decision to be honest. I've been around traditional martial arts more than MMA and this fight really reminded me of some karate v Muay Thai fights I've seen. I loved the fight, thought it was a tremendous stylistic and strategic chess match.

Still shocked at the decision though. Thought shogun won unanimously, split decision at worst.

THE BIGGEST FUCKING SCREWJOB I HAVE EVER SEEN

Shogun won every fucking round!!!!!!!

O M F G I cannot believe UFC WENT THIS FUCKING LOW!

This is unreal. I cant belive this happend.

Read a report that Shogun spat in Dana's face after the fight, destroyed the announcer's monitors and then spelled out STRIKEFORCE in the air to the fans in the arena.

I also stand by the title of this thread. Shogun is the new fucking champ. After watching that fight, the sheer possibility of someone saying Machida won makes my brain hurt.

LOL

I'll bet sherdog is shitting their fucking pants right now.

another thing, how come to johnson fight was allowed to go on despite the fact he was like 6lbs overweight? i mean ok if they still want to fight but it seems harsh that guy gets a loss on his record when fighting a guy twice the size of him.

UNTIL SHOGUN IS AWARDEDE THE LH CHAMPIONSHIP...I'M DONE!
 

I will never watch or even keep track of another UFC fight again. Good luck in Tipsters. I'm fucking done. For good. I cant follow a sport that is rigged. This shit right here is rigged.

How could it have been a split decision? That would have still meant some moron out there though Machida won.

Only 3 people in the world thought Machida won that fight.

NOBODY in the press row had it for Machida by the way. Not one single person.

Legit worst scoring since Lewis/Holyfield 1 and those judges were appointed by Don King!

Biggest robbery ever.

Is there going to be a press conference tonight? I really want to see what Dana says.

It's not their fault. Dana White was standing behind Shogun ready to put the belt on him.

The California State Athletic Commission appoints all referees and judges. They are to blame.

I pray to God that ESPN and Yahoo report it as the biggest robbery to ever be seen on PPV.

This is unbelievable.

even the stuff machida did throw didn't look like it caused much harm though. i mean i can hazard a guess which of them is going to wake up sorer in the morning.

I've never felt this way about a fight . I can't believe that just happend.

ESPN posted on the main page that "Rua decisions Machida, seizes title".

It was fixed. I stand behind that. It was fixed and i will never watch another UFC fight again. I'm done.

Oh shit! Did I spoil this fight for all you guys???


Sorry!

Machida seriously needs to vacate the title. It's the only way he's going to save face. Granted it's not his fault, but people are always going to call bullshit on that win.

It's not UFC or Dana's fault though, it's the fucking judges. The judges aren't employed by UFC, they're appointed by the state...

Unless you're implying that Dana paid them off, then... Well, that would be utter fucking bullshit, and Dana would pretty much go down in flames.

If Krispy fucking deletes this thread, I swear. Rob, rename this shit.

I'm not saying I see it as anything other than a unanimous decision. I'm saying that I thought, at worst, Shogun would win a split.

Fuck him.

i would love to hear the judges reasoning. i think they should be held accountable for it.

it was so weird though. like when they announced it was a unanimous decision i swear machida's head went down.
