About Flyin' Hawaiian »

QUICK FACTS:

1. I am Bleacher Report's original Lyoto Machida fan.

2. Ever since UFC 70 when he defeated David Heath, I have been mesmerized by Machida's ability to use very basic techniques to make other world class fighters look like white belts. A lot of you...well, most of you...are now Machida fans because it's the "cool" thing to do. You claim that you were always a fan, but let's not kid ourselves. We all know you despised him until UFC 94.

3. BJ Penn is my idol.

"I [get] finish[ed] [in] fights!"

Looks like Stoker's packed on a few pounds - haha

"After I put a few boots to his flabby stomach, the ref would...uhmm....call me...uhmm...a douchebag wearing boots"

There's nothing more I'd like to do than lock up a Darce choke on this guy while whispering "hey buddy, I'm an MMA geek who sits behind a computer" - to which he replies - "gurgle, gurgle"

One more "E-MEEL-EEE-EN-KEE-O" and I would've had to shut it down.

Good stuff (where the fuck do you find this shit ?)

Hey man, everybody thinks that Shogun beat Machida. Here's my article on why I think the fight was closer than most people realize.

Contrasting opinions, other comments, and feedback are always welcome.
