Seagal: ‘Amazingly proud’ of Machida & Silva, says they are ‘like sons’

MMA Fighting caught up with Aikido Master Steven Seagal following UFC 129 to talk to him about Lyoto Machida’s spectacular front kick knockout of Randy Couture. This marks the second time in over two months that a fight ends due the kick (Anderson Silva vs. Vitor Belfort at UFC 126) and the second time a fighter credits Seagal for teaching him the kick.

Seagal also addressed the critics who claim he is taking credit for a kick he didn’t invent.
