In a dominant performance, Lyoto Machida finished Chael Sonnen in the second round after badly stunning his opponent with a flying knee in the first. The second time around, however, ‘The Dragon’ did not allow Sonnen to recover after rocking him with a flying knee once again and finishing the fight with ground and pound. On Twitter, pro fighters reacted to the fight.
Can’t help but think Chael said something in Machidas ear at the end of that round when they were clinched. Machida started smiling #Bellator
