Which fighter would make a Lyoto Machida fight exciting?

Question

I can appreciate the out-fighter style like a Floyd Mayweather or Lyoto Machida, I just find it boring to watch.

They depend on there opponent to press the action until they can capitalize on an opening. It's more defence and counter strikes.

Imagine two Lyoto Machida's going at it. They would both just stand and circle waiting for the other to make the first move.

Who's next for Machida? What about Wanderlei Silva?

Answer 1

I hope its Wandy but I have a feeling its not going to be Wandy. The UFC probably wants to do Thiago Silva vs. Wanderlei Silva.

So I am going to say the winner of Liddell/Evans.

Answer 2

lyoto machida is anything but boring.he'll initiate contact when it's necessary.did u see the flying knee he put on tito.that was offense all the way.i think he'll take griffin for sure.silva i don't know about.he's very aggressive and has knockout power.

Answer 3

i think silva would destroy machida

Answer 4

a fight with forrest griffen.

if this match were to happen, i hope machida destroys him.

a fight with wanderlei will be good cause wanderlei is very aggressive and machida likes to wait for the right time to strike. maybe machida can check him with a straight since slivas punches are loopy.

Answer 5

Personally I like his style. But a good aggresor like Wandy, or Aleksander would make for a good fight. He usually is good at picking his spots when guys go after him. Another good fight would be Rampage! Any 3 would make for a good fight.

Answer 6

machidas kind of boring so a fast pace agressive fighter like wandy would make it a good fight
