WKR Predicition: Shogun will fight Machida

For those keep track of WKR's prediction-o-meter this is the third major prediction we are making this year.

The first was that Diego Sanchez would get a title shot by the end of the year.

The second was that Michael Bisping would be the number one middleweight contender if he beats Dan Henderson (not the best prediction but I am sticking with it).

Now there is a third prediction. That Mauricio 'Shogun' Rua will fight Lyoto Machida for the light heavyweight title.

With the announcement that Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson and Rashad Evans will be TUF 10 coaches the likelihood of a Machida-Jackson fight has decreased so much that WKR feels confident in predicting a Shogun title shot.
