Edwards goes to the body with a kick. Machida continues to chip away low. Fabian rushes in with a flurry and pushes Lyoto up against the fence. Machida reverses the position and then drags Edwards to the floor. The British fighters scrambles right back up to his feet. Lyoto Machida forces the clinch again and pushes his opponent up against the cage. A couple of good knees land for the former UFC champion. Edwards reverses the position and lands a knee of his own. He drops for a takedown but it is not there. A big combination now from Fabian and Lyoto Machida is rocked. He floors &#8216;The Dragon&#8217; with a punch and then puts him out cold with ground and pound!
