But the real question is has he learned Karate? Machida beat his ass and made it look easy. I wouldn't worry about Shogun at this point. I'm pretty positive Soko will have one more fight by years end and I'm guessing it'll involve Thiago Silva or Keith Jardine.

Soko IMO has earned his way back onto the live PPV card and will have to fight a name next. Shame Tito is not around any more as I'd love to see Tito vs. Soko.

Soko shut up why you can. Right now you are a fan favorite so don't be calling out other fan favorite fighters especially ones that could most likely smash you.

Soko doesn't have Machida's TDD so I see this one being a GNP affair and ending rather quickly.

I honestly don't know what type of TDD he has. His fights are too damn short. Regardless of who would have won I would have loved to have seen it.

True. Machida choked him out on the ground so I think Tito could have taken him down. He beat Nakamura but didn't look particularly impressive in it.

Normally I'd hate trash talking like this, so out of the blue, but...

Fuck I would love to see this fight. This fight would be fucking great - I'm hoping they make it. Two of my favourite fighters going at it. Still want to see Shogun vs. Liddell though...Damn, this would be great.

I don't know how exciting the Soku/Shogun fight would be. I think Soku/Chuck would be a more entertaining fight. Soku wouldn't have to worry too much about takedowns and and he has the power to KO Chuck. I'd be more excited to see this one.

He got his ass kicked on the ground so he has been training?? What kind of crap is that? Shogun has been training on his back his whole life and not the Soko has been training off his back for a couple months heś going to beat Shogun?? Now thats a joke. I think the UFC should make Soko vs Shogun and have Machida vs Chuck. Those fights make more sense to me. Shogun will loose to Chuck and I dont want to see him go 0-2 in the UFC. Im not sold on Soko at all. He has good stand up but has real no movement in his steps or head movement. He fights a good striker he is going to get KOéd.

Shogun wins this fight and gets some momentum going and knocks Soko out of the top 10.

I'd still like to see him fight Santos, I just don't see him catching Shogun, and it's over for him on the ground.
