It's tough to win rounds on the cards when you are a counter striker and just stand and try to avoid punches to wait for your shot. Rogan was right in that it was Rampage pressing the action the first 2 rounds and 10-8 rounds are rarely seen. If you scored the fight as a whole Machida won, but scoring by rounds he didn't do anything in the first 2.
