Manager Ed Soares Comments on Machida-Rampage Scoring Controversy

Filed under: , ,

There were already some who questioned the outcome of the UFC 123 matchup between Quinton "Rampage" Jackson and Lyoto Machida in the seconds after the official decision was read in Jackson's favor. Jackson opened the door for controversy even further when he admitted Machida "whipped" him in his post-fight comments (which by the way, he later recanted).

Machida seemed to take the decision without much protest, but he and his manager Ed Soares clearly believe that at least two of the judges erred in scoring it a split decision for Jackson.

"Lyoto thinks he won," Soares said on Monday's edition of The MMA Hour. "After the fight, he didn't have any doubt. He was convinced he won the fight. It was a big shocker to him, too."
