He is a former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion. He is currently ranked as the #5 light heavyweight fighter in the world by Sherdog & Yahoo! Sports. The son of a Japanese Shotokan karate master, Yoshizo Machida (町田 嘉三 Machida Yoshizō?), Machida utilizes a karate striking style that implements a wide Shotokan stance and an elusive strategy.

On May 23, 2009, Machida won the UFC light-heavyweight championship from the previously undefeated Rashad Evans by knockout in the second round. Machida subsequently lost his title, and his undefeated streak, on May 8, 2010 when he was knocked out in the first round by Mauricio Rua in their rematch. Machida was named one of the Top 10 Most Superstitious Athletes by Men's Fitness. He is the only Man who holds a victory over former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Rashad Evans.
