                    <p>UFC Hall of Famer Chuck Liddell spoke recently with FOX Sports Marc Raimondi, and discussed UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones.</p>


"The Iceman" loves Jones overall game, and his elbows, but says he is not impressed with Jones' punching power. Liddell, 44, noted that he did not find his own punching power until he started training under John Hackleman, when he was around the same age as Jones is now.

"I think I would have been a horrible matchup for him," said Liddell. "I would have walked through his punches and he wouldn’t have caught me with anything."

"I think it's too early to tell if he finds his punching power -- a good straight, a good hook -- then we'll see. I mean, not only score with it, but hurt somebody. Then we're talking."

"I would have found a way to hit him, and I hit too hard."

Fellow Hackleman student Glover Teixeira fights Jon Jones Saturday night in the main event of UFC 172, live on PPV.

Right.  Jones is always hiding from the top guys like Shogun, Rashad, Rampage, Vitor, Gustaffson, and Machida.

Yawn.  So tired of hearing from has-beens about how they woulda done this and that back in their prime.  News flash Chuck:  your prime was over ten years ago.  Try living in the present and being respectful of the current champ.  You are a UFC employee now, try showing some professionalsim for chirst sake.

I think it is the same thing that keeps a lot of guys hanging on way too long.

Just can't let it go...but who can blame them really? I am sure they experience some highs that no one else will come close too. Be tough to leave that behind for me too. Phone Post 3.0

They're fighters,abd he was the top light heavyweight of his era bar shogun and wand,of course he would say this. Phone Post 3.0

Jones resume speaks for itself I don't think Liddell would have done it easily, would of been a great fight none the less. Phone Post 3.0

Wholesome - What a bunch of fags. Chuck Liddel was one of the greatest fighters to ever live, he has every right to comment.
And he's not even saying anything redundant, he said he would have beat jones in his prime (i agree and have always said this) and he wonders if jones is going to find his power.

So in my humble opinion the two of you running your mouths are bitches... OOOOOHH i just went there
lol @ you 2
bet you feel stupid

faggots
Hahahaha you must live a sad life.

Have my vu friend. Phone Post 3.0

what about the guy who beat his ass twice in his prime.chuck was the number 4-6 best lhw in the world in his prime.

Jones doesn't take Chuck down not would he hold him there.

Chuck lands.

End of fight. Phone Post 3.0

Chuck didn't stop becoming a fighter the moment his career ended. Chuck will always be a fighter, and the mentality you need to survive in that world is that you can beat anyone. In your head you need to be number one, and you need to truly believe it. Chuck will always believe he's number one. Why would you be surprised by a comment like this?

 

Everyones opinion here the past year or two has been so one sided. No one even thinks about empathy for a second. "I you don't believe 'x' then you're just wrong and dumb." 

Lol has Chack been using Columbia's finest export again

FUCK YES

Jones has never been dropped or even wobbled.
Why do you assume that if Lidell landed it would be "goodnight"? Why didn't Rampage get slept instead of beating the fuck out of Chuck X2 Phone Post 3.0

How on earth was anyone supposed to tell your post was a "joke"?

It's true... Liddell had some of the best take down defense in the division. He would have murdered jones Phone Post 3.0

You guys are delusional lol, Chuck was great in his day but Jones would kick his ass no matter what version of Chuck showed up.

Prime Chuck with crazy bunny eyes? That Chuck?

Jones would run away from that fight worse than Tito. The fight would never happen.
