Dana White highlights(I came in late)

Dana not dissapointed in chuck.
Rampage didnt look to impressive, thought it looked liked a sloppy boxing match.
Chuck didnt execute his gameplan.
Chuck and Tito are going to fight in march
Towel throw was right move.
Keeps sayin Chuck didnt have a good night.
Dana said he was never impressed with Vanderlei until the GP. He said Vanderlei impressed him tons.
He said that he was sitting really close too the ring and he never heard or seen anybody take a shot like Nog took that night. He has never heard anything like that.
Talkin bout UFC 45. "Tank and Cabbage is going to be a stand up war.....I hope."
"Last weekend was good for the sport, bad for me, but good for the sport."
He'd like to have a "Superbowl" Every year or two, UFC champs Vs. Pride Champs.
The next PPV will be available in the UK.
He wants Sakuraba for Janurary, Pride is kinda reluctant. Fujita wants to fight in the UFC, but Dana is not super intrested.
The bet was for Vanderlei, that didnt happen so it didnt happen.
Sylvia will probably fight Mir or Arvloski after the suspension for the title.
He cant talk about the 155 weight class, but its somthing big that has to do with BJ Penn.
He is praising Dan Henderson.
More UFC promotion, end interview.

Chuck Liddell
He doesnt know what happened. "I wasnt there, I dont know."
There was alot of pressure, but he dont want to put the blame on that, he hasnt figured it out yet.
He is fine physically, he is more abused mentally than anything.
Gonna take a few weeks off, get back on track.
He liked the new trainers and stuff, but he is going to go back to what he is used too. Learn new stuff away from fight time instead of so close to fight time.
When asked about people saying tito will do the same Chuck said get him in the cage and we'll see.
Everytime they get the fight with jackson, he just says he doesnt know.
Says Randy is stronger than Quinton.
Says Silva looked good, and he still wants a shot at him.

quick interview.

Chuck seemed like he was still out of it. Just kept sayin "I dont know." He also sounded like he just woke up....

Maybe it's the jet lag.....

"Says Silva looked good, and he still wants a shot at him."
This needs to happen.

I still say Chuck vs. Silva =dream match. Chuck just seems to get ****ed up when he ends up on his back.

I still think in his best shape and mentally right Liddell can beat anyone on any given night. TTT for the Iceman and him coming back better than ever.

I just can't get over the way Rampage was just absolutly handing him his ass at Chuck's own game. Also, if Chuck can't get ready for perhaps the biggest LHW matches of his career, when will he be able to? I don't think Rampage would lose to Chuck ever. Maybe 9/10 cause anybody can get lucky.

Randy seems to of stolen Chucks will to fight. Just like he did with Belfort before. Randleman was never the same afterwards ethier and Pedro Rizzo hasn't gotten back to a title fight since he fought Randy.

Randy seems to steal peoples will to bang.

That's an interesting point Creed. Some fighters have that effect on people. Kinda reminds of how Meldrick Taylor was never the same after he lost to Chavez.

I remember someone posting on sherdog about how Takayama's hotness has made people's career's slide after beating him, it was pretty funny.

Thanks for the overview kaps I had to leave before Chuck got on.

You always say this, I dont believe this **** for a minute. Vitor Belfort destroyed Silva after his fight with Randy. Are you forgetting that Chuck beat Overeem? This is the biggest crock of ****.....

I said this before. Liddell got rocked early and was in survival mode. He wasn't thinking about a game plan. He was trying to adapt to Jackson and survive
