[edit] Why no matchup against Forrest Griffin?

I recall reading that Forrest doesn't feel that he is ready for Liddell at this point in time. -- Dan N.

Well, after tonight's performance, I think Forres is right on. Tito barely held on for two rounds. Jackbox1971 05:52, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] wasnt quite sure if the picture actually showed up

[edit] Wanderlei Silva matchup

Edited the latest information in regards to this last matchup early this morning (9/19/06, towards the end of Liddell's information). Seems like the matchup may still be underway. -- Dan N.

[edit] SILVA FIGHT ISN"T HAPPENING

It should be removed its false--Donnie from the mean streets of Boston, KY 02:29, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

It is still relevant, atleast to inform people it is not happening... by the year's end it should be gone until something more than speculation is on the plate Thesaddestday 05:27, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

?? It was a rumored fight to begin with, Dana jumped the gun and announced it under the premise that PRIDE would be closing shop after the yakuza scanadal...But yeah I guess it should still be in the article????--Donnie from the mean streets of Boston, KY 17:37, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Somebody vandalized the Personal Life section

Read it and you'll see what I mean.

[edit] MMA Fight record

1. Chuck Liddell has lost all of his fights via. TKO (his first loss to Horn was by passing out, he stated HIMSELF that he never tapped because he thought he could hold on until the next round. He didn't) 2. Chuck's TKO loss to Rampage in 2003 was actually due to Chuck's corner throwing in the towel, not by strikes. Watch the ending of that fight and you can clearly see a white towel thrown to the referee, who then stops the fight.

I'll change these 2. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by SuzukS (talk • contribs) 03:23, 18 February 2007 (UTC).

Might be interesting to mention Liddell's close friendship with FB stud Lorenzo Neal of the SD Chargers. They train together, and are close friends.

[edit] Good Morning Texas

Any official explanation so far as to his appearing drugged/asleep/mentally injured during this now infamous appearance promoting the film "300"? Let me say IMO I don't think he was on any recreational or illegal drugs, the UFC tests it's fighters and he came up clean (which also would probably discount non-prescribed prescription painkillers). However he DID appear to either be heavily drunk, suffering from serious sleep deprivation, or as some people are speculating suffering from some form of head trauma. Now I'm sure it was something simple (I'm voting sleep deprivation, I've heard those dudes between publicity stuff, training, and just day to day life end up with a pretty hellishly hectic daily regieme), however what was his camps or his sports governing bodies official response on the incident? That would be nice to put up here, since it would be a 'fact' we could link and would put an end to some of the sillier rumors that have circulated since.

[edit] Clarification of status

In the introduction it states that Liddell has received his purple belt in Jiu-jitsu. I assume because of his career that it would mean BJJ and not some other form; can anyone clarify?
