Machida bowing to lifeless bodies in the octagon is iconic

[nmeau]

It’s the gentleman finish that puts him in a league of his own

[bouncer]

Machida was always one of ths most respectful and classy guys

[MarineVeteran]

The fact that he bowed and showed respect to his opponent and not dance around mocking him like so many western fighters speaks volumes of the man he is.

[kookookatchoo]

Lyoto was a surgeon. Precise to perfection

[rossnieto]

Remember the head kick that retired Couture! Lyoto Machida was one of the most entertaining fighters to watch, phenomenal karate

[khaledwahaibi]

Japanese and Brazilian genes FTW!! He is one of the most respectful fighters

[TeemT]

Imagine getting knocked out by the same front kick twice.

[SaintMcFoye]

Lyota was my all time favorite fighter,
he was so much fun to watch.

[theophilus]

Yeah Machida was a beast, loved his fighting style, really showed how effective his karate was.

[butcrack]

Best run in UFC history. That dude was fun af to watch.

[markfairman]

Machida was a samurai man. Destroys you then bows.

[bobhoward]

The quality of the man shows in his formal respect for his opponents and the ring. His technique is fluid dynamic and quite well trained, " the way is in training "MM

[Randm__year_ld]

If I had a nickel for everytime Vitor Belfort got KOed by a front kick, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened twice.

[twhite]

Machida was always very respectful. A true champion.

[zero-theaveragegamer]

Finally some love to Lyoto.

He was one of the few true martial artists imo

[Djclness]

Machida is underrated. People forget that this man had an insane run.

[quintanaquintana]

That was beautiful.He was measuring him all the whole time

[ForeverWithTheValiant]

The bow at the end is even more masterful than the kick

[Er]

Machida opened my eyes to mma. He really is one of the greatest to do it
