MMA XL PRESENTS: HOW SHOGUN DEFEATED MACHIDA’S KARATE
Thursday, May 13th, 2010
Seven-time karate champion João Gilherme Bendly, was responsible for mimicking Lyoto Machida’s fighting style as a sparring partner for Shogun Rua.
In an interview with www.Tatame.com, Bendly said the following.
I memorized Lyoto from the top to the bottom so that I can impose myself in front of Shogun, because what he needed was the karates timing, the defense techniques of Lyoto. This timing is different and requires years of practice in Karate and thats exactly what he needs. I adapted my game to Lyotos and did what he does in front of Shogun to do this specific training.”
I think that Lyoto wont change much his style because its been working very well for him. You cant change ten years of practice in four months. I guess he will still be defensive since hes really good at it, counter attacking. He may work on this timing and be more prepared just as Shogun. But I think Shogun will win.”
“I think it will be like the last fight, the kicks from Shogun are certain and I think this fight will be aggressive, rather than the previous one.”
Here’s some of the footage.

Alex Ariza “Manny Pacquaio do take supplements”!!!!! PLUS a Background history of Alex Ariza
Monday, January 4th, 2010
“He does take supplements,” Ariza said. “Absolutely, he has to. This couldn’t be done without them. I’m talking about multi-vitamins, trace minerals. We take other supplements for his kidney and liver because Manny is on such a high-protein diet. I blend several different kinds of proteins. We do take those things without a doubt, but all of them — all of them — are perfectly legal. I make sure I stay with the same brands I have used for years to make sure there are no additives I’m unaware of. If we did anything wrong it would show up in Manny’s urinalysis and I am completely in control of what goes into Manny. He knows everything he takes all comes from me and everything he puts into his body is my responsibility. I take it seriously.”
