After Alessio Sakara's one sided beatdown on Elvis Sinosic, I think that he is ready to start fighting the big dogs at 205lbs. Chuck Liddell better take notice. What do you guys think?
Chuck Liddell needs to quit using that weed eater he uses to cut his hair.
His chances are about 0
Elvis is absolutely insane to be fighting at 205 in the first place. If Evan Tanner, Rich Franklin, and Ivan Salaverry cut to 185 then for god's sake I think he can suck 20 lbs out of his lanky ass. Balls? Yes. But balls tip toeing on the fragile little tight rope over masochistville. you've got to keep that in mind with this last fight.
Didn't see the fight, but from the post fight pics I'm taking a wild guess that Sakara landed a few shots. Elvis is tough and he can take a shot, but Chuck is like slightly retarded when it comes to taking a shot. If Elvis didn't go out I don't think Liddell would. He got caught a few times against Rampage and Couture where I thought he was gonna be doing a Matua for sure. MMA striking and boxing striking are two different things, and it looks like Liddell along with Vanderlei Silva has figured out what the differences are.
Oh, and going toe to toe with somebody like Chuck is just stupid period. you may outpoint him, but you're not gonna knock him out, and he catches you once and you're a goner. Whats Sakara gonna do? Work the jab? Work the body? He's gonna get low kicked and god knows what else the whole time. If Chuck is getting beat on the feet he takes him down. Chuck's had to shoot a couple of times in the past few years and they were picture perfect and effective.
They are very slim, although, they could get better with more experience.
Alessio's punches are STRAIGHT and POWERFUL!
Good night Chuck!
This guy has better hands than Chuck. If Sakara has a chin I will give him a definite chance. Chuck can take a shot. And that fact combined with good cardio will win you alot of fights.
I agree case n point Chris Leben
