| Jeremy Horn shows how far Chuck has come
| |
| | I'll round out my list with Mirko Cro

| |

| "Rampage" Jackson in their long awaited

| we see this one. I predict the summer or
| |
| | Chuck Liddell beaten in this area. No
|
| fall of 2007. I think that Chuck Liddell
| |
| | matter how this fight ends, you can bet
|
| is a much better fighter now than he was
| |
| | that it'll be exciting. Neither of these
|
| when he faced Rampage the first time.

| Also Quinton Jackson is not the same
| |
| | ground and both of them love to knock
|
| fighter that faced Chuck the first time,
| |
| | their opponents out.
|
| unfortunately for Rampage, his skills
| |
| | So, the fights I'd like to see Chuck
|
| have not gotten better. Ever since
| |
| | Liddell in are:
|
| Quinton Jackson's first knockout loss at
| |
| | Chuck Liddell vs Mauricio "Shogun" Rua
|
| the hands of Wanderlei Silva he has not
| |
| | Chuck Liddell vs Quinton "Rampage"
|
| been the same fighter and certainly the
| |
| | Jackson
|
| second knockout loss to the same opponent
| |
| | Chuck Liddell vs Wanderlei Silva
|
| did not help matter any. Let's hope that
| |
| | Chuck Liddell vs Mirko Cro Cop
|
| Quinton has regained that edge that made
| |
| | Chuck Liddell vs Ricardo Arona
|
| him so dangerous in the first fight
| |
| | I'm 99% sure we're at least going to see
|
| against Chuck.
| |
| | the Rampage fight and about 50% sure that
|
| Wanderlei Silva, the former middleweight
| |
| | we will eventually see the Cro Cop fight.

| champion in Pride would also give Chuck a

| | Let's hope that the others are in the
|
| very good fight. Silva is likely the
| |
| | cards before Chuck retires.
