MMA HQ - Mixed Martial Arts News and Analysis

i dont know how someone can vote for tito come on the guys he is washed up he barely beat forrest and beat shamrock badly but who hasnt recently come on guys we all know chucks going to knock out ortiz then loss the belt to rampage

Tito will be the snake handler trying not to get bit every time he get’s too close. Unfortunately, if you keep grabbing a dangerous snake, you are going to get bitten. Round one will be boring, Tito trying to measure for a takedown without getting knocked out, Liddell guarding and striking when Tito get’s close. In round 2 or 3 Tito will let loose, (thinking he has a conditioning advantage for later rounds) and I think, personally, Liddell is going to land one of 50 punches and knock out Tito while Tito is going for a takedown. I think it’s that simple, Chuck is just too good at avoiding the takedown for Tito, however, I must say, Tito will put out a good show, he is young, strong, and his style is an opposite so it will make for a good show, but a bad fight for him.

tito is focused and ready, real strond and fit as a man can get, i think people will be suprized how tito can stand with chuck, but he will attempt many takedowns and im hoping one will work. Basically im looking for titos will and determination and his emotion to win this fight so someone can finally take chuck out of the number 1 spot.

I guess my predictions were pretty accurate. The fight went EXACTLY as posted….

Liddell wins round 3 by knockout. It was a good show though, congrats to both fighters, I was dissappointed in Griffins fight though…

tommyboy, i dont know how accurate your predictions actually were, i mean round 1 was very entertaining while 2 was dull. for the most part you were right (as any liddell fan like myself was), but i wasnt completely satisfied with this particular fight. i want to see a third fight between the two, but even more want to see a rematch with rampage, i want to see liddell come out on top. happy new years all. stay safe and dont drink and drive.

I think my prediction was pretty dead on, you are right the first and second were kind of a switchup but I think round 3 was as it was. I guess a third fight between these two would be good, it just seems to me that Tito is well conditioned, but not that great at martial arts. His style is too basic and predictable. I have to give him some credit though, he put up the best fight I have seen against Liddell in a long while, no round 1 knock out here. I think rampage will pose Liddell’s greatest challange. I think he has a good chance to beat Chuck, but Chuck is a great fighter and it will be good to see when it comes around. For now, I think he has put Tito in a box for a while, he wont get another shot for at least a year or two.

I actually was not impressed at all by Tito’s performance. Let’s not forget he was basically knocked out at the end of the 1st round and got saved. I do agree that his “warm-up fights” were a joke. He showed real rust against Forrest and the victories over Shamrock are completely meaningless. I think Tito is really done for good. He will continue to fight but will always remain more mediocre than the new blood coming in. He will never regain his title. Is there any possibility of him moving down a weight class? what do you all think?

tito will get his @ss kicked a couple more times, the UFC will drop him, and he will finish his career making adult videos with his worn out girl friend.
