Stylistically, isn't Chuck Liddell the worst possible match up for Anderson Silva? Silva does nothing but come forward looking for ways to end the fight with his superb striking and accuracy and Chuck just waits and counters. Chuck is great at creating space and then he back pedals and sooner or later he will clip you on your chin. No doubt about it that Anderson is prob. one of the best fighters pound for pound easily, but Chuck Liddell has the power and strength advantage, while speed and accuracy go to Silva. I doubt Silva would be able to get the clinch against Chuck as well, as he is really good at avoiding it. He just pushes off the opponent and slicks in an elbow. I'd say Chuck by KO, TKO or decision, but then again Silva could easily do the same to Chuck. It would overall be a very exciting matchup.
