Crazy Footage Has Emerged of Chuck Liddell Punching an Insane Volunteer in the Face…
Chuck Liddell is one of the most recognizable and loved former UFC champions. ‘The Iceman’, alongside Randy Couture brought the sport to a new level and were true pioneers of MMA. With his distinctive mohawk, beard, and intensity, Liddell looks the part as well.
The former light-heavyweight champion is set to make a return to professional MMA, under the banner of Oscar de la Hoya’s new promotion Goldenboy MMA. He’s likely to fight Tito Ortiz, although nothing has been signed yet. Ortiz claims that they’re hoping to sell 500,000 pay-per-views. They probably will.
Liddell might be pushing 50, but he’s still a beast and keeping busy as well. Footage of Chuck Liddell punching one of the Dudesons in the face is going viral on the interwebs and it’s one of the most therapeutic things you will ever watch.
Crazy
How much money would you have to be paid to be punched in the face by Liddell? Enough for facial reconstruction anyway. The man has devastating power, with 13 wins coming by knockout. Of course, by the end of his career, he was the one receiving KO punches, losing 4 of his last 5 fights.
The ‘Iceman’ doesn’t even go full power, but it’s still enough to almost melt his poor victim’s face. At least he didn’t get punched by Francis Ngannou. He’d be out with a search party looking for his head in the desert.
Iceman
Liddell insists that he’s on his way back and will fight again. It will probably be Ortiz, but if it doesn’t work out then they’ll have somebody else on standby. He’s fought Ortiz twice, winning both times. It’s really the trilogy fight nobody needs, especially considering the last time they fought was back in 2006. It’s fair to say the heat has gone out of this rivalry.
“I miss it. I never stopped missing it,” Liddell explained to TMZ. “And I kinda hadn’t really thought about it much. And then when he brought it up and we started getting going, and I started training and I started doing stuff again, getting ready to try to take this on, it made me go, ‘You know what, what if he pulls out?
Am I not going to fight? Am I going to do all of this and not fight?’ Oh no, we had to have somebody backing up, and if it doesn’t work out with him, I’m [still] going to give it a shot. It’ll be somebody else, one of the guys from my past probably, most likely, and we’ll see where I’m at.”

Respect
While fans are divided over whether or not Liddell should return, at the end of the day, it’s his choice and he knows what he is doing. Probably going to make a whole bucketload of cash. UFC president Dana White isn’t happy that his old friend is making a comeback, but it’s the Iceman’s decision.
Hopefully, the fight is competitive when it does happen and that he doesn’t get injured. Meanwhile, Oscar De La Hoya is rubbing his hands together gleefully.
