It just seems like people are enjoying the fact that we are witnessing the decline of a great athlete. Shogun at 185 could be a force but can he beat Silva? It also seems as if a lot of 205 guys are dropping down (Bisbing,W. Silva). He may be better off stay at 205. I really like Machida but I like Evens too. Should be a great fight. - ediesle Tue, 21 Apr 2009 20:16:27 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2494 no one's diputing chuck isn't a great fighter I think he is, it's the hype around him that kills me. he was the face of the ufc, but with rogan and goldberg commentating chuck this and chuck that, it's easy to jump on the band wagon. i mean i train now but i know chuck can still knock me out, but in this game luck doesn't exist. it skill and skill alone. although shogun at 185 would be factor but that's just me. hoplefully machida wins against rashad. - Aries Tue, 21 Apr 2009 15:01:01 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2488 chucks 40 sohoguns 27 i hope shoguns not wash up at 27. stop hate'n on chuck the guys a one of the best of all time - ediesle Mon, 20 Apr 2009 20:51:31 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2482 It seems Chucks chin is weak. When he was in his prime he could shake off hard shots. I hate to say it but he may be done. Dana should give him one more chance against Forrest,(who dosnt possess one punch power) If Forrest KOs him its off to the pasture. - DDavis2kool Mon, 20 Apr 2009 12:03:12 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2481 i've never seen chuck knock out a good striker more than once. i think the only striker he knocked out was alistarr overeem. randy, babalu, randelman, tito, horn, all grapplers. but aganist strikers like rampage, vitor, wanderlei, shogun he just can't finish. - Aries Mon, 20 Apr 2009 12:01:57 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2480 the shots shogun landed were to the temple. from the angle in which the video is shown it looks like the back of the head. i had to watch it a couple of times to make sure. i too agree that with chuck's big power he can have devestaing ground and pound but i'm not sure of his mount or half guard to pull it off, we've never seen it. and why is everyone so disapointed to see chuck lose and say rua was lucky? chuck looked the same as always hands wide forgetting his legs could get kicked. but i think his stance is wide because of his karate backround, like machida. not saying they're the same fighter, just that there is some similarities. - Aries Mon, 20 Apr 2009 11:58:16 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2477 Shogun looked ok, but chuck clearly isn't what he used to be. Rua will fall, just wait and see. - moose Mon, 20 Apr 2009 10:55:53 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2476 ryan ervin you're an idiot. Do this sport a favor and pick up a different one. Shogun is the most well rounded Light Heavy Weight in MMA and he executed a flawless gameplan. Liddell has zero head movement, he doesn't keep his hands up, he doesn't block punches and when trying to avoid strikes he moves straight back. Chuck's opponents during his reign as UFC champ were hand-selected including undeserving title shots for Jeremy Horn (A 185 lb MW) and Vernon White. He's a legend and has done great wonders for the sport but people need to understand that he's also the product of brilliant UFC marketing, making people think he actually was the best in the world and was fighting the best opponents however the fight just before his fight with Tito at UFC 47 that really launched his career, he was brutally beaten by Rampage in PRIDE. Liddell was supposed to breeze through his side of the tournament bracket and face Wanderlei Silva in the finals (assuming Wanderlei made it). However, Chuck got destroyed by Rampage and then later that night Rampage got destroyed by Wanderlei in the Finals. This was Chuck in his prime getting destroyed by Rampage 4 years before his prime. - MMAnoob Mon, 20 Apr 2009 09:02:24 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2475 i was there, it was great when he got K T F O and and at least p of the crowd went silent while we cheered chuck into retirement...its over iceman, thanks for coming. - giants Mon, 20 Apr 2009 06:45:45 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2471 WoW sum ppl are to sensitive lol ....... - satanswingman Mon, 20 Apr 2009 00:55:08 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2470 [b][i]Man I remember when Randy came outta retirement and fought Sylvia (who held the belt at the time)and I was one of the only guys who said Sylvia wouldn't win, well we all know what happened there. Damn I won a shit load of cash that night. Chuck's just in a slump right now but unless White forces him to retire he'll be back but you have to give credit when it's due and Shogun gets his props for this win.[/i][/b] - Porsche930_Pilot Mon, 20 Apr 2009 00:46:01 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2466 Chuck was the better fighter. He has been for a long time. Hes a natural fighter that is why. Just because he dosent go to the ground doesnt mean he hasnt evolved. Its that hes better at knocking them out to the ground. To me stand up is more of a fight not wrestling around on the ground, scared to get hit. Not to say you cant fight on the ground, its just that hold on to each other crap that IS NOT a fight. Show gun appeared to be much bigger but was dominated by Chuck. In my book he didnt win that fight. Fowl shots and the chuck wasnt nearly knocked out. - ryan ervin Sun, 19 Apr 2009 22:32:51 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2461 I said intelligent, respectful talk. keninhod2 do not be antagonistic.

Chuck Liddell helped create the UFC that exists today and Shogun Rua has a stellar record. Both are putting their bodies on the line to do what they love and give a good show for the fans. Let's clean it up, the trash talk is unbecoming.~Trika - Trika Sun, 19 Apr 2009 18:54:34 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2458 Shogun was pure lucky. In the after-fight interview he admitted it. That punch was so flukey. Lidell would annihilate him in a re-match! - brettsky2002 Sun, 19 Apr 2009 18:41:26 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2454 SHOGUN is back comming outta 2 knee surg. and 2 years outta fightin of course he was now gonna do well against colman but i garantee dat he will b as good as he was in pride. - Meezy Sun, 19 Apr 2009 15:43:22 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2453 One of those "hammer fists" looked awfully close to the back of the head!! - ryabby4ever Sun, 19 Apr 2009 14:42:28 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2451 when he had the belt they had him fighting guys like jeremy horn who had no right to have a ufc title shot. the ufc pampered liddel, he was there product and they protected him - younggun3 Sun, 19 Apr 2009 14:25:26 +0100 http://www.kfight.net/MMA-Videos/Chuck-Liddell-vs-Mauricio-Rua-UFC-97-fight-Video#comment-2449 goes to show chuck hasn't evolved with the sport, has top control and just stands? hear of ground and pound???? come on chuck we love you but mix it up its mma! - Pimpstar Sun, 19 Apr 2009 11:37:44 +0100
