Shogun did beat Machida, not by wrestling or BJJ but by strikes after all. I think Shogun will have to come up with a new strategy next time, probably along the lines of what you described.

I think the line on the fight is pretty fair, though. Shogun was finished by Forrest, struggled vs Coleman, and was fortunate to catch CHACKing With The Stars with a lunging left hook that he'd never land on Machida. I just don't think Rua has shown the quickness or technique to get a clinch/ground-and-pound game working vs. Machida, at least in recent years. But, maybe he'll surprise me.
