Chuck Liddell on the Benefits of Cannabis MMASucka recently spoke with Liddell to get his personal opinion on cannabis in the sport of MMA. The rivalry became so intriguing that ESPN just recently made a “30 for 30” on their rivalry.

As the record stands today, Liddell is 2-1 against Ortiz in his career. Just recently, Liddell made his return to the cage after eight years off to again fight Ortiz. Liddell defended his light heavyweight title 4 times witch includes his second fight with Tito Ortiz. He accumulated a 21-9 record over his 30 fight professional career.

Unfortunately for Liddell, the loss to Jackson began a career downward spiral, as he went on to lose four of his next five bouts, three of them by knockout.Chuck “The Iceman” Liddell is a former UFC light heavyweight champion. He defended his title against Dan Henderson later that year, before losing it to Forrest Griffin in July of 2008. Yeah, he was out.”įor Jackson, his UFC career took off to new heights following the win. After agreeing that it was an early stoppage at first, Rampage changed his mind when he saw the replay. Jackson was ecstatic following his title win. After a feeling-out period of over a minute to start the first round, Jackson ducked under a straight left hand by Liddell and came up with a hard right hook to the chin, sending Liddell to the canvas where he was finished with strikes at the 1:53 mark. Goldberg: “He’s at the top of his game, and he has no plans of giving away his light heavyweight belt tonight.” Couture: “One of the amazing things we learned about Chuck about that first loss to Quinton, we’re just finding out now that he had an injury and wasn’t 100%.” He was nervous in his Octagon debut against Marvin Eastman, and if he was nervous then he’s really going to be nervous tonight.” Liddell entered next to a loud ovation from the crowd in attendance.

Rogan: “This is a big, big moment for Quinton Jackson. “Chuck ain’t going past the third round.” Rampage entered the cage first, wearing his larger-than-life chain around his neck. “I’m going to knock him out in the third round,” he said. “That’s my last loss,” he said, “and now I get to avenge it.” Rampage was unperturbed. In the pre-fight lead-ins, Liddell was firmly focused on avenging his loss to Rampage. Unfortunately for Liddell, Rampage duplicated his knockout when he challenged for “The Iceman’s” UFC belt in the main event of UFC 71, only this time he did it in the first round instead of the second.

Even after Quinton Jackson defeated UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Chuck Liddell at Pride Final Conflict 2003 with a knockout, few felt that he would repeat the feat in a rematch four years later.
