UFC 104: Machida defeats Shogun – Unanimous Decision
A UFC card that will be talked about for whiles to come wrapped up at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Lightheavy weight champion Lyoto Machida retained his championship belt in a controversial unanimous judge’s decision, after going five rounds with former Pride grand prix champion Mauricio “Shogun” Rua. In this five-five minute round championship match Shogun was able to control Machida like no other opponent has been able to do since his debut in the Ultimate Fighting Championships, attacking the legs and body of the champ. Machida answered back with kicks of his own and defended the takedown attempts of the challenger.
At the end of the twenty-five minute match Machida was awarded the victory, a very vocal crowd booed as the results were revealed and Machida as the champion was questioned by Joe Rogan,. A visibly upset Shogun was cheered for by the crowd as he stated that he and his corner thought he had won the fight but accepted the judge’s decision.
