How does Chuck Liddell win?

[the_alcatraz]

knockout power, aggression, good standup

I mean he is smaller than most opponents. He does not have the grounds skills that others have. The only thing he seems to have is his wicked overhand right he uses.. It just seems that other fighters would be prepared for that and take him right off> discuss..

He sends a couple hookers and bags of coke to his opponents room the night before the fight.

chuck walks around at 230+, same with Forrest...he's pushing 250 I understand. Basically these are HW's that realize that if they brutally cut weight, they can dominate the more natural 205'ers. But look at Randy, he's gotten "Better" now that he's gone up to 225-230. Dude still has his ridiculous cardio but now he's retaining his natural strength. I thought Gonzaga was going to bull him.......didn't happen, Randy was equal to him in strength.

Maybe I misheard, but I thought they announced Randy/Fedor after the silva match??

I'm not sure...

I try to do my best to keep up with the MMA scene, but I very well could've missed something.

I know Randy was pissed off at the UFC and quit fighting, and was just training guys at his camp in Vegas. Maybe they resolved their differences since the last time i heard anything

dude, Randy's not in the UFC anymore....he's in.....well....whatever that federation is called that has Fedor, Silva, Arlovsky and now Randy. No, Randy is long done with the UFC.

I know he's not in the UFC, He was trying to go to the IFL? i think that's what it was called.

Anyways, The UFC was suing Randy for breach of contract since he refused to fight the last 2 fights of his contract. Last I remember, there was an injuction preventing him from fighting until the lawsuit was resolved.

That could very well have been taken care of by now though....like I said, I do my best to keep up, but I know i've missed some things.

Also...as a side note..

I think Randy is a bit of a flake. I saw an interview with him a while back saying that he wasn't going to fight anymore because the UFC was the only place he wanted to fight, and since he wasn't fighting for them he just wasnt' going to fight anymore.
