Default Liddell got knocked the eff out

Rampage Jackson, Pride fighter, melted Liddell with a right hook to the jaw. Game over.

I thought the same thing Samarta. Liddell looked fat and lazy like a beer drinking hillbilly, and proceeded to get his ass busted. I dont think that lazy hook would have knocked most guys down, especially cage fighters. Ridiculous

The second fight of the night with that Houston guy was unreal. That guy has fast hands, he reminded me of the Bernard Hopkins when he was young. Vicious combo of punches

These guys dont wear gloves, they are really fist protectors. So what appears to be a nothing punch hurts a great deal. If you put those same types of protectors on heavyweight boxers instead of gloves, they would kill each other.

This sport is absolutely brutal. Yet it is interesting as styles of fighting clash and one is never really sure what will happen. That Rulon?Gardner kid who won the gold in Greco-Roman wrestling has gotten into this. He looks fat but he is so strong. And he has actually learned how to punch. It should be interesting to see how he progresses.

I don't disagree at all....this sport can be brutal....but Liddell is supposed to be the toughest sob the sport has to offer and he goes down with what looks like a glancing blow. Then when he goes down it looks like he goes to get right up and then all of a sudden he's helpless....then it gets stopped and he's all p'd off....the whole things smells a little bad to me....

I did not see the fight so I will go with your assessment. And this sport will be in trouble if they put up a big PPV fight and people think it is set up. I have only watched replays and so I get the cherry picked fights. What I have seen is brutal. Especially the fights from Japan. Guys just put to sleep or bleeding all over the mat. Submission holds that would crack me in half.

Oh yes. I saw Butterbean fight this guy about half his size who climbed up on him like a spider and grabbed his arm.. immediate submission after he secured the fat arm properly.
