No one was more excited by the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s official announcement that Chuck Liddell and Wanderlei Silva would finally fight at UFC 79 on Dec. 29 in Las Vegas than Liddell himself.
John Hackleman discusses Chuck Liddell’s disappointing loss to Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, who they want to fight next and when. Plus, you don’t want to miss what he had to say regarding the rumors of Liddell’s partying too much as well as why he doesn’t like the way Jackson is handling the win.
Chuck Liddell may not be Quinton Jackson when it comes to outrageous statements in interviews (who is?), but ‘The Iceman’ remains one of the fight game’s most fascinating figures, in and out of the Octagon, and a true icon of mixed martial arts.
“I know his plan is to try to tire me out and take me
long rounds and win the later rounds, but I’ll be ready to go – I don’t
think it’s going to make it to the fifth round – but I’ll be ready with
a lot of pop and ready to pound him in the fifth round if need be.”
