The on again, off again dream match up between former UFC light heavyweight champion Chuck Liddell and former PRIDE FC middleweight champion Wanderlei Silva could be on again at UFC 79 on December 29, according to John Hackleman via FightNetwork.com.
Here’s the snip:
“We thought [the next fight for Chuck] was going to be Shogun, but now instead of saying ‘no’ to Wanderlei [Silva], they’re saying maybe…. We’ve wanted Wanderlei all along. When I told Chuck [it was still a possibility], he was almost as excited about it as when he found out he was fighting Tito [Ortiz].”
Hackleman — the long-time trainer for the “Iceman” — mentioned that Liddell has already resumed training less than two weeks after his upset split-decision loss to Keith Jardine at UFC 76: “Knockout.” It was an outcome that seemed to derail the 205-pound clash between him and “The Axe Murderer” once and for all.
Fortunately that’s not the case now that Shogun is on the shelf because of surgery to a knee that he injured prior to his losing performance against Forrest Griffin.
In addition, Silva expressed an interest in fighting Griffin after he dismantled his friend and former ChuteBox training partner. However, Griffin sustained a serious facial gash from a well-placed Shogun elbow during the fight that will most likely not be healed in time for the New Year’s Eve weekend event.
And even if Shogun and Griffin were healthy this is most likely the last opportunity to pit Liddell and Silva against one another. Why mess that up … again?
Even though it may have lost its luster a bit with both Liddell and Silva coming of back-to-back losses it is still an extremely marketable fight. Especially in Las Vegas.
Put simply, most fans have waited years to see it and still want to see it.
It would be a fine addition to card that is shaping up nicely with two title fights and a number one contender heavyweight eliminator bout.
Let’s just hope that if Liddell-Silva does happen that it makes the pay-per-view (PPV) broadcast (sarcasm).

1st post WHOO HOO!!!!
I sure hope so.
“Let’s just hope that if Liddell-Silva does happen that it makes the pay-per-view (PPV) broadcast.”
Whats that supposed to mean?…I’m not getting it..This fight has anticipation of a war, that could be televised for free and MMA fans would still pay for it..So i honestly don’t get it!…lol
This would be dynamite regardless of them both coming off two losses. They are both pure strikers with reckless regard for themselves should be exciting anyway you look at it washed up or not.
Make this damn fight official already! Comming off of 2 losses, there is no one I would rather see chuck fight at this point in his career then wanderlei Silva. I dont care if they are both comming off of loses. This match has been talked about for about 5 or 6 years now, and Im sick of talking about it and dreaming about it. UFC aquired Pride… so give us this freakin Dream match up.
Its the freaking Axe Murderer vs. the Ice man for crying out load, who doesnt wanna see it? Especially if its not even the main event. This fight could possibly happen on New Years eve in Vegas on the same card as the Welterweight title between Serra and Hughes, the Lightweight title between BJ Penn vs TBA, Noguerra and Kongo… I mean come on this wouuld have to be one of the most intriguing cards in history of the UFC.
I would pay to see this fight if it was headlining a pay perview aas the main event, now if its on the same card as two title defenses and Noguerra vs. Kongo… its a no brainer I think…. Make this damn fight official.
The only way that I wouldnt want to see this fight is if they can get a fight signed between Henderson vs. Wanderlei at the November Newark New Jersey pay per view. Other than that I will be thrilled to hear this fight added to an already amazing card at UFC 79!!!!!!
Come on Dana, you been talking about this fight forever, enough talking and make this shit official!!!!!!!

Sarcasm. lol!
This fight HAS to happen. Just for the sake of making it happen.
Man, i dont wanna drive myself nuts thinking about “what could have been” ..argh.
2 guys who need to prove they still got it.
Chuck more so than Wandy i would think. Since his losses came in the Octagon (and more recent for that matter thus still in a lot of people’s minds) …
Make it happen Dana! i’ll pay!
$$$$$$$

I thought it was funny!!!
Just make it happen!!!! .. this blog actualy pissed me off when i read it….. im tierd of always dreaming… just make it happen!!!…. im tierd just thinking of it…talking about it.. arguing about it…
Think fight would be sick! You add it to the UFC 79 card which looks to be the best card of the year already and it would make anyone’s day.
Hughes vs. Serra
BJ Penn vs. Sherk(hopefully) or Stevenson
Liddell vs. Silva
Big Nog vs. Kongo
Koscheck vs. ?
Lister vs. ?
That would end my year perfect and be a huge money maker for the UFC. There are 3 main events and maybe 4 on that card.
The only problem is Dana needs to get to work on that UFC 78 card. That card is looking weak right now. I would love to see Tito vs. Henderson and Houston vs. Rashad on that card!
Nice!
I don’t care that both are coming off 2 losses! I will pay to see that fight alone!
I think they will have to match these to up..b4 time passes them by.. Chuck vs Wandi.. Is a good fight wherever it goes.
the winner could fight Henderson? maybe.
[quote]Liddell has already resumed training less than two weeks[/quote]
So Chuck’s already starting party again? Good for him. Have one for me Chuck!
you all know this fight will happen in dec, i feel bad for jersey getting a crappy card and this event in vegas will be the best ever wish i could take the time off near a busy holiday god working sucks!!!
I just don’t know why Liddell wanted to fight Shogun, makes no sense after Shogun lost horribly to Griffin, it was not even a close fight. What Liddell would gain by beating Shogun, that would just put Shogun way back on the bus and the other way around. Liddell fighting Silva makes absolute sense, even if Liddell looses he will get close to a million bucks and takes a year off and come backs once the division settles down.

ROFL!!!! your killing me
Im done with this fight already. Obviously it would be pimp. But I am also sick of talking about it, hearing about it, and arguing about it. Im not counting on this fight because Im sure something will happen to prohibit it from happening. If it does though….. Wandi all the way.
Im sick of chuck’s belly. (which keeps getting bigger and bigger)
I still want to see this fight, and I don’t care how many losses either of them have. It would still be an exciting fight, so who gives a shit if the outcome doesn’t have the implications it would have had a year ago?

Actually his gut got smaller for his match with Jardine..and i think it will be even in better shape for this fight if it happens

Yes. Just stop taking the fun out of the damn thing and set it up. UFC is starting up more and more with this crap, enough talk…just sign the fight and fight. This league talks too much.
Liddell is a bad match up for Wandi, Wandi is old school Muay Thai fighter, Chuck is hybrid backstepping hard punching kickboxer. So if Wandi try to bullrush him for a clinch and knees, his grill will eat a right overhand to the lala land. So if Wandi smart he will use Jardine strategy and use work from outside, either way I hope this fight lasts to the 2nd or 3rd round, quick KO would suck ars.

Maybe that was the problem. His gut is like Samson’s hair. He needs it to win.
This fight should happen regardless of current wins or loses because both of them are stars
I don’t care about losses or records. This will be a fight plenty would pay to see. They should make it happen before people lose interest. They aer still 2 of the baddest men on earth and it would be great to see then fight while they still have skills. Make it happen!!!!!!
I think that either way, who ever wins this fight will put them back into contention . Who ever wins this fight will give the fighter the boost that they need to fight at title contention again . As it stands both are pretty shit at this point . ( go liddell)
They are both coming off two losses that is why this fight is perfect but I’m not getting my hopes up to soon because Dana White has talked and talked and talked about this but it has never happened. Hey Dana make it happen you got my forty bucks!
Why not! Fans still want to see it. I want to seeWanderlai fight Tito again also.
UFC or a media site they are buddy buddy with like Yahoo should do a poll to see if fans still want to see this fight. An overwhelming majority of people have posted comments all over the internet saying they still want it. I’m sure results would reflect that. Maybe Dana & company will listen. They’ll do it if they think they’ll make enough money off it.
This fight is a no-brainer.
The Tagline for this match should be
“2 Fighters, 2 Straight Loses Each, 7 Years in the Making.”
I mean if that does not get you pumped up I dunno what does!
I mean come on, this fight has had every turn, and every bump possible.
Okay, Chuck is coming off two straight loses, against Rampage and… Keith Jardine. Silva is coming off two loses to Mirko Old Cop and Dan Henderson.
If Chuck wins, it boost his poster boy image right back through the roof.
If Chuck loses, ouch people might not like Chuck anymore. Maybe he will learn not to appear in Movies and crappy rock/country music videos.
If Wanderlei wins, he gets more fans and more air time for defeating Chuck.
If Wanderlei loses, so what?
MAKE THIS FIGHT HAPPEN.
With this being said, Wanderlei is confirming through his website that he is hurt and must retire before his fight against Chuck Liddell!
*rolls eyes*
No doubt it’ll be a great fight, but is anyone struggling to get as excited about this. Just wish it would have happened this time last year. If only it could have been these two in London, oh well.
Who cares if Chuck gets killed, just hurry up and put this fight together…
they should let the fans pick some fights in 2008… have 24 fighters (all the best).. and have a dream match voting system…. fans make the fights and then fans vote for them…and the fights with the most votes will take place on such a date…
IM just gonna go ahead and say MAYBE NOT!!!

Thats actually not a bad idea. Have like a contest and the one winner gets to picka match as long as it is approved by the UFC. I like that idea. That has some cool potential.
I also want them to do celebrity UFC. Remember when Rogan was challenging Wesley Snipes? haha. I prayed long and hard for that fight to happen. Also…. once they get tag team cage fighting, its all over. lol

JOHN, I’m with you 100%. Except for one thing - I can see your East Coast biased showing wanting to see Hendo/Silva III in NEW JERSERY, more than Liddell/Silva I. Since the tickets for New Jersey go onsale tomorrow, I don’t think they’ll be adding Henderson to the main event, at least not in time. Even if they could get Hendo/Silva signed today for NJ, I would prefer them not too. I would sacrafice seeing that fight live in person in order to be guaranteed to see Liddell/Silva. This fight has to happen.
After Chuck lost to Jardin, it looked like all hope was lost. But now, Shogun needs surgery, and Chuck needs an opponent. Also, Forrest would gladly take on another Chute Box member in the Axe Murderer, but his horror movie sized gash won’t be healed in time, so Wandy needs an opponent for December. It looks like all the stars are finally aligning, and we will get to see Chuck The Iceman Liddell vs The Axe Murderer Wanderlei Silva!!!
good news
lol, sorry for all the misspelling, I did that pretty quick…
Jardin
Wandy
I dont’t care that they both are coming off of two straight losses. Both of them still have fighting styles that will make for an exciting matchup. Plus, despite where they are ranked in the world right now, this will still serve to shed some light on the whole Chuck vs. Wandi arguments that raged before the Pride takeover.

They actually did this in PRIDE.
WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN. IF IT GETS TO THE PPV CARD. THATS A DUMB COMMENT. IT DOESN’T MATTER IF THERE WAS 5 TITLE FIGHTS, THIS FIGHT WOULD STILL GET THE MOST ATTENTION. TWO OF THE ALL TIME GREATS. HOPEFULLY IT FINALLY HAPPENS.
If it doesn’t happen, it’d be the best fight that never was.

You’re DUMB. It was sarcasm.
I see no reason why this fight shouldn’t happen. It’s a win-win on all sides. Great for Silva, to introduce him to a wider American audience. Great for Liddell. Great for the UFC. Great for PPV. Great for the fans. I don’t see any reason for this fight not to happen.

Did you guys ever hear of this thing called SARCASM???
Or if you read a few comments, you would have seen there there was 1 dumbass before you 2 that thought the same thing. And Mania clearly says that he was being sarcastic.
When I read the statement, I laughed. You guys read it, and got all upset thinking he was serious.
There sure are many, many, many ways to weed out the dumb ones on this site…
If there is one person who i am sure of taking roids coming from pride..it is most definately Wand silva. Dudes head looks like Barry Bonds. Also someone look at his fights in Pride. Juiced out no doubt
LETS DO IT!!!!!

Zero hour has arrived!
The dream match up can finally happen. This is so right on so many levels: This is the fight that will re-kindle the spark or the trigger to start the next Ice Age for the Iceman! Congratulations are not quite in order but close to the genius that puts this fight together, it’s been too long a comin’!
Wanderlei by brutal KO!!!!!!!!!!!
uc CHUCH HE STOLE 1MILLION DOLLARS FROM US AND THE UFC AT A BARE MINIMUM!!!
PLUS HUIS PERCENTAGES OF THE PPV’s AND ON AND ON
I’M SIK OF CHUCK
HES a HAS BEEN
SO IS WAND>
WAND ’s CHIN IS THIN AND SO IS CHUCKS PINK SLIPPERS STOP PAYING MILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO SUCH STUPID ONE DIMENSINAL FIGHTERSSS!!!
WHAT SUCKS IS THAT I LIVE IN NYC, DA BRONX AND UFC 78 IN NJ
absolutly sucks!!1
even with tito vs ???
TITO SUxs
NO ONE WILLL BUY THIS CRAP!!
Fans have been wanting this fight, you would think after all of the others upsets, they would make sure that this fight would happen.
Could still be a good fight for what it’s worth at this stage. It still should have happenened at least a year ago.
I’m not really sure why Dana would put this fight together…Would he really want Wandi to lose his first fight coming in to the Octagon and lose all that street cred….Could he maybe be the next Cro Cop??
On the other hand..Would he really want his golden boy Chuck to lose three in a row? If he loses 3 in a row…I think he passes go, doesn’t collect $100 dollars (in this case a few hundred K, for back pedaling and throwing a few hay makers) and doesn’t get the get out of jail pass. I see Chuck fighting Babalu for the 3rd time next summer in the old man’s, washed up league.
Ufc 78 main card Michael Bisping Vs. Rashad Evans
I wonder if Michael Bisping Vs. Rashad Evans is the actual main event how much would that bring in. well According to ufc.com Michael Bisping Vs. Rashad Evans 78 main.

I would not watch this fight on free tv. Two of my least favorite fighters. Get ready for a fight between the two most protected fighters(Huerta questionable) in UFC history. I want both of them to fight someone in the top ten and get smashed.
im not to thrilled with this match up
We will see a different Chuck Liddell, for sure! He better bring it and learn from his fight with Keith Jardine if he can manage to kick Silva’s as* then he would cement he’s BACK. Now if Silva kicks Liddel’s as*, it’s over for the Iceman. Pride FC needs to represent with Silva.
FUCK IT! For the sake of the fans- PUT’EM IN THE CAGE!!!!
Just Do It!!!
2 losses each is perfect drama. It will be a war, can’t wait to see it!

Sorry guys, had to give big ups to my spot.
It was meant to be, chuck 2 loses, wandi 2 loses. Dang blast it put them in the cage! Heck put em in a back yard. LOL. just kidding. But seriously, I’m going to expect these two to fight in december. Chuck all the way!
If this match does not happen we will truly see what a R-E-T-A-R-D dana white actually is.

I hear ya. I have some respect for Dana I think he’s made alot of good decions on fights, but he has to make this fight happen.
LOL @ the guy who said Houston Vs Rashad, im sorry but Rashad is a fuckin joke, I know Houston hasnt been in the UFC long but he would DESTROY Rashad.
Tito Vs Henderson wont happen for a while if ever, considering Henderson is injured, Tito WILL not fight again until he fights Rashad = Dana Whites own words.
This is Titos last fight on his contract, another loss or bullshit draw and he might not even be resigned. Im a Tito fan but he hasnt done shit in the past what 2 years now.
Wander Vs Griff would be the shit, AFTER the Wander vs Chuck fight.
Oh and when Wander fights Rampage, hes gonna get his ass beat.

haha its true man, Chuck himself has said in interviews that he trains at night, so he has so much energy and goes clubbing a lot. He lives in Vegas, is disgustingly rich, and parties like a rockstar. Im a huge Chuck fan but he parties 2 much dude, thats why he hasnt been himself.
Look up some of chucks recent interviews, he himself says he parties a lot. Yeh he trains hard but eventually the partying will get to you.
Look at the video of him training for his Jardine fight, hes doing a stupid row machine on like level 27 or some BS, and Jardine is climbing sand dunes and doing all kinds of crazy ish, I knew Jardine was going to win, and I hate him.
This is to much of a money match up for the UFC to pass up. The fans want to se it and it will be big money for the UFC. It will happen it’s just a matter of time.

Well put!!Either that fight or Couture/Fedor
Lets imagine if boxing never had ali v foreman rumble in the jungle?!! Wee if ufc does not put liddell v silva its missing out on one of the greatest bouts ever in mma bar none! Dana dont be silly, these guys are getting no younger so get the fight signed, get them in the cage and get a great fight happening! Whoever loses will not be disgraced at all, i cant believe the amount of guys saying things like… chuck is over, hes past it. What a load of crap!! Go and watch beach volleyball then and stop talking dump. thats why mma is so exciting, every fighter has a style and not all styles match up well, doesnt mean that guys are rubbish at all, CHUCK will be back, mark these words!!!!!!
why just many people losing belief on chuck,saying he’s done,he’s washed up,he needs to retire,& then many people still treat wandy on top his game regardless of also coming of from 2 straight loss, is it fair for chuck that also coming from 2 straight loss?
the 2 losses of wandy compare to chuck is much worst, chuck got ko’d but still concious,& the other loss was came from desicion, but wandy’s 2 straight lost is by Knockout (cold) completely unconscious.
i think its still one of the biggest fight for me & excitied to watch this 2 ko artist bang against each other,
because this is a do or die for both of these fighter,
they both cant afford to lost,one of them must redeem himself,
then the loser will be completely out of track & maybe never have a chance to get a shot fot the title..

wanderlei’s 1st loss was against cro cop in an open weight tourny.silva was the lightest guy in the tourny,and he absolutly destroyed 265lbs “fujita”. so he got knocked out by the bigger cro cop,alot of guys have.point is you didn’t see rampage or hendo in this heavy weight tourny did you!wanderlei got knocked on his ass with a spinning backfist by hendo,that fluky shot could happen to anyone,if the guy throwing it is lucky enough to land it. chuck’s looses were alot worse.to think he was the favorite in both fights.he got picked apart by jardine and there is no-way that fight should have been a split decision.jardine was the true unanimous winner. so silvas’ looses and liddells’ looses where very different and i’d say chucks’ looses were worse! i also think WANDERLEI kicks chucks’ ass into retirement! then he goes after hendo,destroys him, then he goes on the hunt for rampage,and beats the shit out of him,for the 3rd time!
the 1st time i saw chuck liddell fight i thought this guys a great fighter,i like him. before this i saw wanderlei silva fight,i said,this guys a crazy mother f’er and he can fight, i really liked it,the whole persona thing. so even though i like chuck,i’ve been a wanderlei fan for a few yrs longer. then i saw MINATAURO,and he’s calm,peaceful,and a hard working great fighter. i became a fan of his as well. i think he’ll submit kongo. i think wanderlei will knock out chuck,then go after and beat hendo,after that he’ll destroy rampage for the 3rd time!
liddell wins by split decsion or knock hopefully knock thats the bottom line. The reason why silva’s going to get knocked out is because he always comes forward you cant do that agaist chuck watch the randy fights…prediction chuck wins
If chuck loses i think it’s time to retire there is nothing else for him to prove he has the record for most wins in ufc and he is a former light heavy-weight champion..
Other predictions
serra over hughes- knockout
Fracklin over the spider-knockout
the man iac over the truth- knockout or decion
If it did happen
randy over fedor- stoppage
