I will make this short and sweet...

I told everyone on this site in 2 different articles that there isn't a guy in MMA who can beat the Spider.

Both polls, Machida was the only guy people thought could do it.

I said "no way"...but the fight will never happen so it doesn't really matter...

Well, Shogun, being a good Muay Thai fighter showed us that a good Muay Thai fighter could give Machida BIG problems...so if Machida wins the rematch, then put Brandon Vera next in line!

But, if Machida loses the rematch, then we will finally get to see the proof...as Anderson Silva (the BEST Muay Thai fighter in the UFC by far) would demolish Shogun (as he would Machida, but they refuse to fight each other).

So I guess all I'm saying is really...I told you so.   LOL!
