1993, the first UFC competition was held in the United States. Eight genre masters competed in the octagonal cage to compete for the championship. Times are progressing, and fighting is also evolving. In today's MMA octagonal cage, the gaps and technical shortcomings between players have become increasingly smaller, and MMA is more like a competitive sport between players. However, among them, there are still many contestants who retain their distinctive characteristics, such as the karate master of Matsutado genre - Machida Ryuta !
machida Ryuta
machida Ryuta is a Japanese-born Brazilian player. His father, Yoshizo Machida, immigrated to Brazil from Japan in his early years and got married with a Brazilian girl. He eventually gave birth to the brothers Ryuta 3. As a karate, Kazumamamada opened a museum in Brazil to accept disciples, and his three sons were even closer to the water tower and received the true teachings of his father. Unlike traditional karate, Kazuma Machida added many practical martial arts skills in his teaching class, which made the three brothers Machida win consecutive victories in the karate competition. For a time, the reputation of the Machida family spread like wildfire. As the second son, Ryuta Machida has the highest talent among the three brothers. He won the Karate Black Belt at the age of 15 and also won the Brazilian Sumo championship. Later, Japanese wrestling legend Antonio Zhumu saw the potential of Ryuta, took him as his adopted son, and brought him back to Japan for training.
In 2003, Long Tai won his first show and began his MMA career. With his solid karate skills and physical conditions, Longta has always been in the battle with many world-class players and has gradually gained fame. In the end, he attracted the attention of the UFC and was attracted by the octagonal cage. In UFC, Long Tai is even more like a fish in water. While his karate-style play makes his opponent complain, it also refreshes many Western audiences. Some even believe that no one in the octagonal cage can keep up with Long Tai's elusive pace.

Along with his record, Ryuta also ushered in his championship battle. In UFC98, he KO Rashad Evans, who had never lost before, and took the UFC light heavyweight belt and stood at the highest peak of the world. Later, Long Tai fought with the famous general "General" for two more games, and finally lost, and was defeated by guillotine in the game challenging "Bone" Jones. However, the nearly 40-year-old Long Tai still maintains a super competitive state - in the game against Randy Cotour, he used a crane-style forward kick and KO Captain America on the spot, making Randy retire with regret.
Karate Fore-Shu
In addition to rich fighting skills, Long Tai will also give up the final shot after knocking down his opponent in the game, and will also bow to his opponent after the game is over. Such a humble and low-key oriental warrior temperament has attracted many UFC fans.
Now, Ryuta Machida, who is 40 years old, has joined the BELLATOR league and hopes to challenge the championship at the end of his career to put a perfect end to his career!
