"I've seen him. I've watched tapes of him fight. I can't stay up. He's so boring I go to sleep, man. It's hard. No disrespect, he has a real awkward style. He does karate, but he knows Mixed Martial Arts. But he does karate to keep away, he stays like eight feet way from his opponent. He's got the record for being punched the least out of all MMA fighters, and that's because he's never there for you to punch him."
-Quinton "Rampage" Jackson talks about Lyoto Machida on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson (video below - app users video available at MMATorch).
Penick's Analysis: Rampage must not have been watching Machida's fights with Thiago Silva, Rashad Evans and Mauricio "Shogun" Rua. Sure, Machida's had some boring fights, and Jackson was playing it up for the talk show audience, but he had better not be thinking that's how the fight will be next Saturday or he's in trouble. But, as always in his public appearances on shows like this, he remains entertaining.
