Ortiz Lidell how many times have these two fought each other
https://mmajunkie.com/2018/11/tito-ortiz-believes-chuck-liddell-is-sandbagging-during-public-training-sessions
Quote: | The matchup between Ortiz, 43, and Liddell, 48 will mark the third meeting between former UFC light-heavyweight titleholders. Ortiz was stopped with strikes in the second round at UFC 47 in April 2004, then put away by TKO in the third round of the rematch at UFC 66 in December 2006. |
Is Dana looking for sponsorships from AARP? |

That fight will be for the Metamucil Championship.
Chuck looks absolutely terrible in the workouts of him I've seen. Tito might do some permanent damage to him. |

Chuck should NEVER be allowed to fight again or the commissions are an even bigger joke than we think. Top 5 worst fights of all time easily.
Ngannou BYKE with a big win though it may have been stopped early |

Ken Shamrock gets winner.
Ortiz vs Shamrock 4 - THIS ONE IS FOR ALL THE MARBLES.
In all seriousness that was god awful. UFC put on a pretty damn good show tonight. Man when Ngannous hits a b#####, game over. _________________ KOBE |

Like golf, this is the UFC Senior Circuit, I guess they need to do it, otherwise Bellator will host it..

Chuck Liddell looked like one of those old drunk Russians from that famed YouTube street fight video. I’d be willing to wager that all of us in this thread could beat him. Ice Man is right. Dude is STIFF.
Oscar De La Hoya should be sentenced to 1,000 hours of community service for that “show.” And here I thought Don King was without shame.
Tito, Tito, Tito. The only thing as sad as Liddell’s rigor mortus was Tito’s celebratory eruption.
Ngannou barely seemed to clip the top of Blaydes head and it was all it took.
He’s still dangerous but Stipe still got him shook. _________________ We back. |

I hope Oscar lost money |

Whatever amount Liddell wound up getting paid isn't worth the brain cells.
Tito hasn't KO'd anyone with strikes for 12 years. 2006!!! And guess who that came against? Broke ass Ken "Methuselah" Shamrock.
Maybe DLH can match Tito up with Randy Couture to avenge another loss. The Natural is 55 years old so he fits the age bracket.
Should change his name to the Hometown Buffet Bad Boy. _________________ We back. |

Can't imagine betting against Style Bender, given the circumstances: Silva's age, layoff & doping history. If Spider pulls out a W, his legend only grows but I just can't see how he can shake off the rust and turn it back. But I actually hope I'm wrong.
Hard for me to imagine Romero not finding a way to win that one. Paulo hits hard and all but Yoel has a bowling ball for a head. I think Costa may break his hand LOL. _________________ We back. |

Supposedly Silva's been promised a title shot if he wins and it's hard to say he wouldn't be deserving based on his past accomplishments and beating a young buck like adesanya would be another big one.
I think Romero's defense will be too good for Paulo. He was getting destroyed by Uriah's jab, so Romero should be able to outstrike him easily |

Tai Tuivasa took a pretty good L from JDS but damn, he and his camp sure botched that one. Dude landed exactly 2 front leg kicks and each one was as punishing as you'll see. All he needed to do was land one more and that lead leg would have been amputated.
Credit to JDS though. That guy is as smart as he is a great boxer. Stud. _________________ We back. |

I struggle with 2 things when it comes to predicting The Adesanya vs Silva fight:
1. I don't generally like to pick against Silva. Even at this point, he is still as dangerous as they come, and is still the most fluid striker I have ever seen. Even this version of him is still a dangerous opponent for anyone.
2. I have a slight suspicion that this fight is too soon for Style Bender. I know he's at the point where he needs a bigger fight, but nobody in the history of MMA would ever be able to look at Anderson and think "this is a good matchup for me stylistically" It's like Anderson fighting a younger version of himself, so Anderson will have a good idea of how to prepare against that.
Tough to pick this one, so I'm going with nostalgia and saying Silva.
Definitely agree on Romero though, too big and strong.
Really looking forward to Holloway vs Ortega. Max is one of my favorites to watch, and I think Ortega has a lot of potential too. If Max is 100%, I think he gets it done. His aggressiveness and his motor will be the deciding factors for me. _________________ Lakers, Chargers, Dodgers, Arsenal FC.

Max and Ortega should be a fun fight. I do find myself feeling that it's just T-City's time now. Factoring in Holloway's health is probably the clincher for me. The Hawaiian's height is definitely a positive for him because Ortega just looks big for a lightweight. Broad shoulders and never looks gaunt during his weight cut. It's crazy. I honestly don't know how he does it.
Ortega's boxing has been underrated and especially the defensive side. I like both fighters a ton but I just think that chin of Ortega's (Max has mostly been a volume striker) combined with his improving striking will eventually get this match to the mat and then, it's all over, "and new." We'll see. _________________ We back. |

Would someone PLEASE tell Dan Hardy to shut up?
He talks constantly, check that, he "babbles" constantly!
We don't need a constant description of what is happening, I can see he got a take down, I can see one guy has the other in a head-lock, sheesh, he is relentless and non-stop..

He also makes his analysis "personal" sometimes. How he covered Woodley vs Till showed his bias |

I have Ortega and Shevchenko winning as well.
Don’t know how Max will look after all the injuries
Bullet has already beaten JJ 3 times in Muay Thai. I don’t see this one going any different unless it somehow winds up on the ground |
