i would go with to machida he's stong enough to stuff hendo's take downs for three rounds and the angles he takes and body posture might give hendos stand up fits, he won't ko hendo so i say he takes it by split decision.
If it is for some kind of title and is a 5 round fight i think that would even be more in the advantage to machida his fights go to decision quite a bit so his cardio should be up for it.
5 of his last 6 fights have went the distance and been settled with the cards
