By Kris Karkoski First I just have to say, I think this match should have happened some time ago when both fighters ruled their respective promotions. Now that that’s out of the way lets break it down. Chuck Liddell actually possesses a great style to combat Silva’s aggressive approach. Liddell being primar...

By Casey Trowbridge Coming off a close loss to Jackson at UFC 75, Henderson is dropping to Middleweight to take on Anderson Silva in March.

By Jesse Holland Jackson (like most main event fighters) made me look foolish by taking my prediction for a KO loss and flip-flopping it. So Dana threw us a curve and announced Dan Henderson-not Shogun Rua or Brandon Vera as the next challenger for the light-heavyweight title.
