Quick Thoughts On This Whole Chuck Liddell Thing
- Chuck Liddell Living it Up
I'm a big Chuck Liddell fan. After he beat Wanderei I really though he'd make a comeback and regain his title. I mean who were the other contenders at the time? Forrest Griffin? Rashad Evans? Those dudes would never be Light Heavyweight Champs right?
It's about a year and a half later, and two KTFO's later, and it's pretty clear that he's well past his prime. That and guys just know how to fight him now. Do I want to see Chuck retire? I think it would be best for him to. He could have a nice career suiting up for the UFC in the day and still partying like he always done at night.
Problem is he seems like he doesn't want to retire for whatever reason. His trainer is going around talking about "One fight left" on his contract. And Dana White has made his stance on Liddell continuing to fight very obvious. It seems the UFC is trying to sell off all Chuck Memorabilia and will probably induct him into the Hall of Fame.
I think the UFC might be going about it wrong. Just let Liddell mull things over for a few months and he'll probably decide retirement is the best route. Pushing it on him this way might turn him into the next Ken Shamrock.

Hey, I don’t know why someone who’s done what a warrior like this has done can’t simply walk out of the ring. It’s not fun to lose, especially in a sport where every fight is nails into a body that has to be ready for a total overhaul, except they really don’t make those for the brain. Hard men have a hard time walking away on a loss. Please, I’ll make him filthy rich if he doesn’t go back in, because he is a warrior…but I need him to talk about it in order for us to get rich. If he can’t talk, it’s a much harder P.R. job. Love talking about the science that is UFC/MMA.
if chuck liddell saw the goof that wrote he should retire he would slap him out like he was a little girl. i hate how spectators talk about fighters going into retirement because the just do not know! Just like the wanna be loser that wrote chuck liddell should retire.
Come on now , Liddel is up in age but does’nt mean he’s done. He can still dominate some of these young guys, with his cage experience and punching power, he can keep putting on great shows. I cant wait for his next fight!!
