TJ De Santis scores the round: 10-9 Liddell
Mike Fridley scores the round: 10-9 Liddell
But in Round two, Rashad Evans connected
After trading blows, Liddell was gets hit while throwing a punch and went out cold and motionless. Liddell was on the canvas motionless for several minutes before getting ‘awoken.’
Analysis from Yahoo:
Light heavyweights: Rashad Evans (17-0-1) def. Chuck Liddell (21-6)
How: TKO, 1:51 round two
Key moment: Evans, after not having landed many strikes, suddenly connected with a punishing overhand right that knocked Liddell out.
Analysis: Liddell made the same mistake he made when he lost his light heavyweight belt last year to Quinton “Rampage” Jackson. He went to throw an uppercut and Evans caught him with a booming overhand right. The win will zoom Evans to the top of the division and places him squarely among the UFC’s elite at 205 pounds. Liddell has lost three of his last four and there at least has to be thought if he’s come to the end of the line of a spectacular career.
