Dont' over react guys!!!

Soko said pre-fight he was practicing a lot of Kung Fu in the Jungle and Machida said he should be practicing Karate in the Jungle instead. Nothing racist intended :-)

lyoto said maybe he should go back and train karate in the jungle [instead of kung fu]

just a bad interpretation me thinks

I understand English perfectly, thank you. I just wasn't aware of Soko's comment about his training in the jungle.

I would love to see Machida vs Chuck or Jardine but I dont think he should fight Tito. Tito has been in the fire many times and wont freak out if he is taken down. I think Tito will hold Machida down and win a decision. Tito is bigger and stronger and has great wrestling skills. Machida beats any stiker in my opion. I hope people give Machida his respect and that he keeps winning his fights.

WAR Machida!

Well maybe whenever Tito is done playing around on The Apprentice he will accept the fight against Machida. Knowing Tito, he will think that Machida is not on his level and not accept the fight therefore dodging another fight.

He needs to stop coming up with excuses and start fighting how he used to. Either way i think Machida would still beat him. We will never see the old Tito again.

How is Machida racist. Those were not racist comments.

He was just commenting on all the shit Soko said about training in the jungle an all that shit.

don't know if you have noticed but Anderson is black lol, and he is good friends with him and Anderson is the head of there camp.

I gave him the benefit of a doubt (see my original post a page or two back) when I mentioned it. I ddin't understand why he kept saying what amounted to "go back to the jungle" to Soko after the fight. Knowing now that Soko mentioned training in the jungle before the fight, it makes sense now.

This was already cleared up, no need to keep dragging it out.

MACHIDA = NOT RACIST
