Henderson is a KO specialist and has never been knocked out. He has more experience and great takedowns and ground game. How would he get KO'd? "

Also Lyoto has never so much as lost a round, and Hendo doesnt have the speed. "

Lyoto has beaten good people too. Also Newton sucks he currently has a record of 14-13, Bisping really isn that good ethier, he fight nothing but cans. "

Ok, those have decisions that aren't really impressive and 2 of which yu even said aren't that good. Now if you want stats then here:   
 Crezio De Souza (TKO)  Eric Smith (Submission)
Bakouri Gogitidze(TKO) 
Renzo Gracie (KO)  
Akira Shoji (TKO) 
Shungo Oyama (TKO) 
Murila Bustamante(TKO) 
Kazuhiro Nakamura(TKO) 
Ryo Chonan (TKO) 
Akihiro Gono (KO) 
Wanderlei Silva(KO) 
Michael Bisping (KO) 
 
Way better stats than Machida and not even all of Hendersons wins either.

Hendo doesnt have the speed. "

" @KO-Kid: u also forgot to mention some notable losses that hendo has and lyoto doesn't have any some of the fights that hendo had was alos easy giveaway victories as well "

I like Hendo, but I would definitely give the edge to Machida. My question though, is Machida good enough to fight from his back if Henderson were able to get the takedown? Everywhere else though,  Machida outclasses Henderson IMO.

Machida.

Lyoto will make Dan drink his pee
 
...And look at that pic of Lyoto, it looks like somebody wants a sip...

" @Cross82:   lyoto is a bjj black belt himself has plenty skills on his back pending that the he even goes on his back @KO-Kid: false, hendo's record is 25-7the reason hendo has more victories is b/c he been in the game longer thats all "

" @KO-Kid: doesn't give him any clear advangate here tho lyoto does have enough experience and skill set to win this "

" @KO-Kid: possibly however highly unlikely "

Hendo is a great fighter, but I cannot see him defeating Lyoto, Lyoto would probably KO Hendo, nobody really saw Rashad hurt, no one ever really saw much happen to Rashad, and Lyoto destroyed him. Hendo loses and if not by KO, then by unanimous decision for sure.

Hendo would look like he was moving in slow-motion. I love Dan Henderson, but Machida would embarrass him. What is Hendo going to do, hit him with the BRH? The mere notion is absurd. He would have to rely on his wrestling, and we have seen how wrestlers do against Lyoto.

" Probably all the guys Lyoto has knocked out our previously undefeated fighters with untested chins... Rich Franklin"

Youtube it Korg.

No need to. You're saying Rich Franklin has an untested chin. That's what I'm laughing at. 
 
@KO-Kid said:

That's where I stop reading what you have to say. "

I said it was untested when Lyoto knocked him out.

That's still inaccurate. Just because someone hasn't been knocked out, does not mean their chin hasn't been tested. Case in point: Fedor. "

" Machida hasn't knocked out anyone with a great chin"

" @gunswordfist said:

" Machida hasn't knocked out anyone with a great chin"

What are you basing this on? Franklin has a great chin. I would say on Hendo's level, since Hendo was unable to KO him. Rashad also has a good chin. "

"how do u measure this exactly? "

" @capall said:

"how do u measure this exactly? "

In gallons, I believe. Litres if you're using the metric system. "

I don't know why people are placing Hendo on a greater level than Rashad or Franklin, I know Hendo beat Franklin, but it does not mean he is vastly superior, Hendo has never been knocked out and neither had Silva or Evans before taking on Machida and down they went, so who is to say Hendo would survive the same assault? Tito barely managed to get by, but was shut down the entire fight and pretty much did nothing. 

I hate to say it cuz Henderson's one of my favorites but machida
