i really like machita.. especially after he beat rashad. But after his first fight with shogun... i was hoping it was just new champ jitters. it seemed like he played defense a lot in that fight, but in all his other fights he didnt. I am really hoping that this one goes much better then the last.

Also, i hope matt "meathead" mitrione gets knocked the F out.

Shogun may take this. He was damn close in the last.

Close?

Did you even see the match? He did what Edgar did to Penn. Didn't destroy him but was far superior in almost every round. But in the end, unanimous decision for Machida.

Unless Machida starts getting agressive, Shogun is going to steamroll him.

I have to totally agree with you there. I am a big fan of Machida, his fighting karate style is pretty awesome but he clearly lost that fight against Rua. Hopefully this time around he can prove that he can beat Shogun.

I still haven't seen the Edgar vs Penn fight, but i was 100% sure that Penn was going to mop the floor with Edgar. What a surprise did i get when i read that Penn had lost, i was disappointed just to read that he lost, i can't wait to catch the fight on cable.

I saw the match, Shogun was robbed. I said 'close' as in Shogun could have beaten Machida, if it wasn't for the judges.

Seeing how the last one went, Machida will up his game as well for this one and the match may end just how it did last time with Machida getting the unanimous decision even though Shogun was only marginally better.

its seems like machida is a "GOOD" champ. What i mean by that, is that the voting in his fight against shogun seemed to be swayed by how easy it is to like him and want to see him on top. im sure that the judging is supposed to be fair and all, but that fight could have easily gone either way.

I felt the same way, at first. But as I and many others have said, watch the fight again on mute, and you might see a different outcome. I love Rogan but he was very vocal about everything shogun did, and not so much with machida. But if you watch it on mute, for everything machida threw (kick/punch) machida responded.

I didn't feel like Shogun got robbed but I understand why people picked him as the winner the same way I didn't think Penn got robbed but understand why people say he won that fight.

I think the LHW division is the most stacked division and regardless of Shogun winning or losing their rematch we are going to see the belt switch hands a number of times this up coming year. I am so glad that Shogun is finally showing some of his earlier brilliance in pride. I honestly thought his loss to Griffin was a sign that Pride was just inferior but hanging in their with Machida like he did made me forget all of that. I can't wait till Jackson gets back in there and hopefully we will see Anderson Silva move up so he can get some competition.

I don't agree at all, this was way better than anything else from UFC lately.

The following matches were all very good and definitely worth seeing:

Shogun/Machida (epic!)

Stephens/Stout (good slug fest)

Belcher/Cote (Belcher is awesome)

Doerksen/Lawlor (upset + Lawlor!)

Davis/Goulet (nice finish and a needed win)

Only the Koscheck fight was a thumbs down for me. Meathead looked good and the fight was pretty funny even though Kimbo never had a chance.

Press conference confirmed, both Kimbo and Daley are done in UFC

did anyone see daley hit that bitch after the fight? (**** you koschek... habs are beating pittsburgh and our boy is going to own you again after the next season of ultimate fighter). i turned away and missed it.

I thought the PPV overall was alright, canadian boys didn't fair too well :( I really thought machida was going to win, how do you screw with a guy who drinks his own urine? Props to belcher though, that was impressive. I though cote had that one for sure. Stout/Stevens fight was pretty good too.

Daley gone - I can understand that. Maybe a suspension would have sufficed, however, it is understandable, that there is no place for that kind of behaviour in the sport.

Koscheck - The trouble is, he would have probably got in to some trouble is Daley hadn't acted like a fool. Sure, fire Daley for what he did, but I don't agree with the play acting by Koscheck. Again, no place for it in the sport. The guy is a fool and I can't wait to see GSP kick the crap outta him!

Shogun - Got what he deserved! Brilliant performance and after his last 3 fights, a very deserving champion. So, how's about a Forrest Griffin rematch? :p

The rumors about Shogun's injury were incorrect, but he was not 100% for his fight against Lyoto Machida. Shogun came down with Apendicitis a few months before the fight, and had to undergo major surgery. The procedure was kept under wraps, but Shogun confirmed it on MMA Live.

According to UFC sources, the UFC was prepared for the worst case scenario. It was rumored earlier this week that the company had Randy Couture ready to step in to fight Lyoto Machida incase Shogun could not fight.

:o

    • Chrome has history of being the browser everyone uses because Internet Explorer sucks, not realizing that Edge changed that, but people got into the habit of using Chrome. I use Brave and I've never been happier with a browser. It does what it is meant to do and gets out of the way.

    • Microsoft launches Godot Sample to streamline Xbox PC game development on the engine by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft today announced a new endeavor that aims to make it simpler for Godot developers to get their products into the Xbox PC ecosystem. Dubbed the "XBOX Godot Sample," this is a new public reference for developers using the open-source engine. This is set to serve as an example of how Microsoft GDK, Xbox Services, and PlayFab can be integrated into their projects. The sample is available now on GitHub as a working example. This covers key features in gaming projects that developers may need to release their projects on Xbox PC, with everything from matchmaking and game sign-in to gamepad compatibility with Godot being covered. This release is being called the first step in giving Godot developers the tools to bring their games over to Xbox PC, with more changes to come based on feedback and issue reports. However, the company was clear that this is not related to bringing Godot projects to Xbox consoles. The engine's open development model stops it from accessing console SDKs due to the requirement of NDAs and legal contracts. Here's how it explained this Godot sample project's focus: This is a source-only sample, not a product. It's MIT-licensed at the wrapper layer; the GDK and PlayFab dependencies still require their own installs and license acceptance, consistent with our other XBOX samples. There is no set update cadence for support or maintenance. We’ll watch the repo, monitor issues, and iterate where it makes sense, but this isn't a commercial release. That said, we’re excited to hear your feedback and see any community PRs, as we evolve this together. This is the first step in bringing Godot for XBOX on PC. We plan to evolve it over time based on what the community tells us is most valuable. This sample is built specifically for XBOX on PC. It doesn’t include support for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One. If you’re already building for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One, please talk with your XBOX representative. If not, you can get started by signing up here. Game developers can find the XBOX Godot Sample by heading to GitHub over here. Documentation on how to get started with Godot for building an Xbox PC project can be seen here.
