I'm basing it off the same thing the judges were, watching the actual fight not the post-fight stuff like fightmetrics.
Most of the kicks Rua threw Machida was throwing counters for in the first three rounds. IMO Machida definetly won rounds 1 and 3, and probably won round 2. Shogun won rounds 4 and 5.
I get the people who have Shogun winning 48-47, but the ones that have him winning 50-45 is just stupid. There is absolutely no way he lost round 3.
