The Canadian Press has yet another great story. The nice thing about this story is that there are quotes from all over the place from Hughes, Liddell, and others about the upcoming fights. It is really a coupling of many sources, but a very good read and nice to see in a concise format (instead of reading every article on the web).

Chuck Liddell, a fierce striker with a greco roman wrestling background, will face the most feared fighter in MMA, Wanderlei ‘The Axe Murderer’ Silva. ‘UFC 79 Nemesis‘ gives us the fight matchup we have ALL been waiting for.

Lidelle Versus Wanderlei

Wanderlei is a black-belt in Brazillian Jui-Jitsu and absolutely loves using his knees to finish an opponent, but will likely not get close enough to Liddell to use that technique. Look for Chuck to keep Wanderlei at arms length looking for the knockout puch. Wanderlei’s best bet is to come in fast and furious, pounding Chuck’s legs a la Jardine to soften Chuck up for quick inside moves.

Chuck ‘ The Iceman Liddell’ says:

I think our styles will make for a great fight and I always thought I could knock him out. I like a guy who comes at me and forces the fight. I don’t think this one goes to a decision, that’s for sure. It might make it into the second or third round, but someone is going out sooner or later. I plan on sending him out in the first round.

Wanderlei Silva has been quoted as saying:

He’s a very tough guy. He’s the biggest name here and it’s a very important fight for me. I’m training very hard because this will be a very tough fight for me.
