Wanderlei Silva vs. Chuck Liddell - Drama

Chuck Liddell vs Wanderlei Silva

Will this fight ever happen? As Dana White says Who the F%$k knows!  Well the drama has been in full effect and this fight has potential to be the biggest UFC fight in history. So here is the latest.  So first off the drama started off ages ago, this fight has been in the making for years. Well finally we thought everything was now set for UFC 76 in September. But then Dana White comes out and says Wanderlei pulled out. Now there is talks of Chuck fighting Keith Jardine at UFC 76 instead.  Well Wanderlei says he never ducked Chuck or any fight ever for that matter.

MMA weekly reports Wanderlei saying  “I never said that I wouldn’t fight Chuck. I’ve wanted this fight for a long time. I received a contract with two options, I could fight in September or November. I have chosed to make this fight in November. I was the first to want this fight, but they kept avoiding this fight. Now there’s a lot of people saying that I have ducked Chuck. This is not true.” 

and then goes on to say

  “I want to fight Chuck in November and make a huge show, and make it the biggest show ever… I have no doubt it’s the most important fight of my life. I know Chuck is a great name in the U.S., we’ll have a great fight. I think I must be in my best shape, so I want to take this time to train better and be in my best shape ever.“

Dana told Yahoo sports that Wanderlei had no interest to fight Chuck anymore and never mentioned anything about the timing of UFC 76 or fighting in November!

So what do you think of this drama? Who is starting? Dana or Wanderlei or Chuck?? Maybe Dana is scared of Chuck getting knocked out again? But who knows!

    Dana is starting the drama. He knew Wanderlei was moving to the U.S. and needed more time to train Dana never mentioned it. He just said Wanderlei was too afraid to fight Chuck. He could have easily just had this match in November without any drama. He’s just trying to hype the fight up for November.

    You all are retards. they will fight it is inevidable, and if you know anything of the sport youd know that a fight can go two ways no matter who you favor. This is going to be a great fight regardless of who gets knocked out but untill than enjoy the anticipation of this awesome fight.

    wanderlie is the axe murderer. why would he duck chuck liddell.. Chuck Hasent won a fight against a good striker since….huh well never and chucks look in his eyes changes when he gets tagged a time or too and he looses confidence. silva will come in agressive pushing chuck and not wildly like babalu. But with devestating looping punches. silva wont back up. no one has approached chuck that way exept randy in there first fight and Jackson in there first and second fight… He is ruthless and exiting the only way chuck has a chance is if he catches silva coming in. But I see a lot of knees and clinch work and I would bet than silva has some damn good elbows on the ground.. But I doubt we will see any of that against chuck……………I predict a high octane fight with Wanderlei Silva swinging for the fences going forward and Chuck swinging for the fences going backwards….. Wanderlei Silva will win an exiting fight by KO in the first or second or the third of a bloody round war………………
