Lyoto Machida the popular UFC performer would be very soon challenging the UFC light heavyweight champion Rashad Evans had a visit or in the form of Victor Belfort last Sunday. The match between Rashed Evans and Machida is scheduled to take place soon and its only better for Machida to get as much as training as he can before the fight takes place and what better person to train under than Belfort.

It was good for Machida that Belfort was in town and he had stopped in order to train. Belfort later said that he had some projects in Belem and a few good friends there and that also includes like Lyoto. Belfort also added that he and Machida decided on a collective training regime and he has tried his best to help Lyoto. According to Belfort Machida had a couple of days of hardcore and extreme training and he hopes that the training would do Machida a world of good. Machida had praised the styles as well as the techniques of Belfort who also happens to be a former UFC light heavyweight champion.

Machida praised Belfort’s observations and said that he can put severe detailing in every match that he takes part in and this puts Belfort in a completely different league altogether. Machida also promises to put every bit of practice that Belfort put in to him. He will be entering the title fight at 14-0 and for this he actually had taken essentially no sort of punishment in all of the six UFC wins. However his opponent Evans also maintains his undefeated streak and at the same time he ranks as the UFC’s Numero. Thus this is going to be an amazing fight indeed.
