It will happen, but It should've been for the strap.

Wouldn't call him a paper champ, per say.

Tim Silvia was more a paper champ.

At least he defended his title against Monson without any asterisks by his win.

Even Lyoto knows he lost, you could tell it by the look on his face as he was going into the middle of the ring for the decision.

When asked if they thought they twon the fight at the post figh press conference:

Shogun said he won at least the last 3 rounds.

Machida said that the 3 judges scored the fight to him.

Not at all. Ricco was top5 when he beat him and he had several other quality wins. He never won a terrible decision.
