Chuck Liddell will retire as the UFC LHW Champion

Dana will continue to send him world class fighters to fight and he'll do what he does best.. .knock the &#$* out of them. Nobody will beat him, and eventually he'll get bored, retire, and move on to acting or something.

Tito, Forrest, Rashad, Babalu. ....all losers compared to the Iceman.

Wanderlei Silva.. .bring it on! HE WILL LOSE HORRIBLY!

Seriously, who can beat the Iceman? Don't say Rampage, because that was 3 years ago, and since Chuck has improved enormously, while Rampage's skills have declined. So Chuck would knock him out too.

Hes great, but he even said he will keep doing it for long as he can, Hes 36 (I believe) and at an all time Prime, He could potentially beat any fighter in the world right now. and with a few years left in MMA, who knows who he will fight or be brought in to fight him.

I think he will retire as champion, but not because of lack of talent. I think he will eventually get all the matchups he wants before he leaves the MMA game

I mean no disrespect to the living legend (Chuck), but I think he'll start to decline pretty rapidly after he hits 37 years old... Remember, he's not Randy... Randy is/was a freak...

I'm not saying Rampage could definitely beat Chuck at this point (although I think its possible), but Chuck certainly hasn't changed much in 3 years. He's shown absolutely NO indication whatsoever of evolving. I'm not exactly sure where you're seeing him "improve enormously".

And Wanderlei "LOSE HORRIBLY"? Both fighters could win that match in devastating fashion.

Why don't you stop Trolling?

i want to see chuck and rampage fight again..cause rampage basically raped him...then silva raped rampage....so silva and chuck need to fight......i love chuck to death..but i think silva would score an early knockout..

^^^^^ word. i dont get how chuck has changed his game.... he even said he fights every fight the same no mystery that he just wants to stand and trade punches.

people that make threads like this make me dislike chuck.

he is good but damn get off his nuts

As long as Wand hunts him down with movement and timing without rushing into a counter he could give Chuck hell.

Remember Wands striking skills get better when he feels threatend and thinks about what he's doing, if anyone thinks a guy who's fought Cro cop and the heavy hands of Mark hunt is gonna get Ko'ed in 1 rd by Liddell is on crack and dosn't know shit about striking.

Did he beat Crocop or Hunt?? NO HE LOST.. that doesn't mean shit. Just because he stood and exchanged blows with those two HW's, doesn't make him a better fighter, anybody could do that.

But what that did show is that Wanderlei Silva can't stand and strike with a World Class Fighter like Chuck. The only chance he has is to take the fight to the ground but he'll get knocked out trying to do that.
