Thread: Chuck Liddell vs Tito Ortiz 2

He's not the best ever but I wouldn't say that he isn't great. He's definitely not unstoppable though.

I agree...you need someone that is full of confidence to fight Liddell...you can't be timid and back down, even when Chuck is pressing you because we seen time and time again that means you lose...is Rampage the answer...maybe, he has one up on Liddell and knows that he can beat him...take a look:

Rampage hardly shows fear and presses when pressed by Liddell...People have too much respect for Liddell and don't show enough confidence while fighting...Liddell warrants respect, yes, but not to the degree that his opponents have been giving him...

Sure, Rampage beat Liddell. But, so did Jeremy Horn and Randy Couture. Look how the rematches for them turned out. It's been over three years since we saw Rampage beat Liddell. It should be a great rematch. But, so far, only Jeremy Horn has brought Liddell into the fourth round. Props to Tito Ortiz for getting into the third round.
