Chuck Liddell Will Be Back, and He'll Fight Anybody
Despite three losses in his past four fights, Chuck "the Iceman" Liddell says he's not done. "I'm not going anywhere," Liddell says. "I love fighting, and I'm going to keep fighting." Liddell told ESPN magazine that he's waiting to hear from the UFC regarding his next opponent, but that he plans to return in March or April. "I'll fight anybody, any time," he says.
Liddell held the light heavyweight championship title from April 16, 2005 to May 26, 2007, with four defenses. After Quinton "Rampage" Jackson knocked him out, the title belt has changed two more times, with Rashad Evans being the latest winner. "It's a wild division right now," Liddell says. "All of those guys are good, and Rashad deserves the title. But I still look at that list and think I belong at the top." He continues: "I'm a few fights away from a title shot. But that's always what I'm looking for--a chance at the belt."
