dude marijuana in general is harmless
of course inhaling burnt plant matter is go to fuck with your health but once you cancel out smoking it
its COMPLETELY HARMLESS!!!
if it was legal we would be eating the pot not smoking it
take a tip don’t believe everything the government tells you
and if your a smart stoner you would be using a bong or a vaporizer
FOR YOUR HEALTH

i smoke pot too, but you guys make me laugh when you say its harmless
oxygen is harmless, weed can cause lung disease, including chronic bronchitis and emphysema, anytime your inhaling smoke, no matter what kind…its bad for your lungs
smoke is not supposed to be going in your lungs, the smoke from the paper, the smoke from the herb itself, it afects your lungs, its not harmless, your talking about the overdose death rate, thats something different

You know, i dont really think thats gonna happen, Lyoto is to elusive for that… Tito is a great wrestler, and he couldnt even take Lyoto down.Lyoto did take Ortiz down and pounded tito on the first round, plus its not like Lyoto doesnt have any skill on the ground either, remember hes also a bjj black belt, and probably has learned how to sprawl and scramble well…the only way i see it man, is that Rashad just needs to keep his calm, and dont chase Lyoto, punch or shoot when lyoto steps in.

he would side step it

One thing about Rashad in his standup is that he has fast hands, so he could probably be able to get in a few good shots on Lyoto is he goes close quarters combat. And on that note, if he does close quarters, he can set him up in a clinch and perhaps get him into underhooks, and then get him into a half nelson or something to get him onto his back and gain side control in order to ground and pound.

Dude, havent all the other fighters Lyoto fought tryed to close in on lyoto, and never ever even succeded? whats the matter with you, even if Rashad close on lyoto, theres just going to be evades and counterings by lyoto..but you are right about the standing part, however, Rashad needs to keep distance and counter lyotos attack, when lyoto steps in, thats when rashad tryes to shoot or punch..just like Efrain escudero did on phillipe nover..but i am afraid its easier said than done.

I’m a big Evans fan, but I think this fight can go either way, so I don’t mind if Lyoto wins it, since I like him too. Anyway, here’s my view in order for Rashad to win. He will have to use his boxing skills and close in on Machida, and not fight at him in the distance. He will stand more of a chance in the pocket with Machida in standup, and get into close quarters combat with him, and then also use his wrestling skills while he’s at it, and then try to pound on him, and even get to the back

Lyoto Machida is going to smash on Evans
17 Trigunflame // May 14, 2009 at 1:18 pm
I’d like to see if Machida could backpedal fast enough to avoid my car.
18 Blindjohn // May 14, 2009 at 1:18 pm
Or you don’t know about fighting.
19 tmanturner // May 14, 2009 at 1:18 pm
i have to say before i go into machida an evans… joe couldnt really finish his answer could he lol he just kept goin off on to different stuff an then returning to machida takes no damage haha.
i do see machida winning this tho, i think the longer the fight goes the more chance he has.. evans will go in aggressive an just get tired trying to knock him out or go for the take down…. machida will be taking his time an like ppl say he will move back an think of te best way to win
20 ConConShareef // May 14, 2009 at 1:18 pm
All real MMA fans know that an intelligent fighter is better, Joe’s hit it “right on the button”. I have Machida winning this one because he’s been so impressive in his last few fights but Rashad has one punch knockout power so it’s gonna be dangerous for Lyoto the longer it goes on.
21 chrisc485 // May 14, 2009 at 1:18 pm
I have to agree with Joe on this one. I’m the same way. I love watching smart fighters, not just to brutes punching each other in the head. I can walk downtown and watch that shit for free. The last Anderson Silva fight I though was great but the crowd booed…. WTF. Sure sliva didn’t KO the guy, but thats what made it sooo good. Silva seen that the other guy was much better on the ground and stayed away from it. It was only smart if you ask me. I can tell you I wouldn’t fuck with thales leites
22 shuilker // May 14, 2009 at 1:18 pm
Machida will own Rashad, Machida has never even been knocked down. Goodnight Rashad
23 mynameisnasty // May 14, 2009 at 1:18 pm
