UFC light heavyweight champion, Lyoto “The Dragon” Machida makes his first title-defense against fellow Brazilian Mauricio “Shogun” Rua as UFC 104 Betting Odds’ main event in Los Angeles, California.
Machida has never been defeated 15-0. This may be his first time…his legs look weak and ribs may be broken…
5th and final round…
Shogun is landing very hard leg kicks. Gave body kick, elbowed the face, it’s over…
Both raise their hands at the end of round five…Judges score cards 48-47 unanimous decision Lyoto Machida!!!
WHAT!!!!!!!!!Boos all around..
The crowd boos as Machida is asked about the win. He says he deserves the victory, that each judge awarded it for him and that should be enough. Rua isn’t convinced. His corner told him he was ahead. He felt he was ahead.
I agree totally, Rua was robbed!
More celeb sightings in the crowd…David Spade, UFC Camp Chuck Liddell seen with Dancing with the Stars dance partner Anna Trebunskaya, Chris Tucker and Michael Clarke Duncan.
