Not close to the best fight ever but thats an opinion I guess. I dont like either fighter, especially Liddell. He's a drunk who the UFC protected and made to be a huge deal IMHO. Wanderlei is alright but I dont like him as a person. Alright fighter though.
I just cant wait and see who the put up against Fedor. M-1 Global is making his next purse 10 million which has to be the stupidest thing ever. The only way it could be worth that much would be Randy or Josh Barnett but I don't see either of them joining M-1 anytime soon. M-1 is gonna destroy itself I think.
I hope it is a good fight! The pride fighters have been pretty disappointing since coming to the UFC. I think Silva beats Liddel he is reeling from his back to back loses.

I think a lot of that has to do with UFC's insistence on making 'stars' out of their reality fighters... some are all right, but geez, they don't all need a special! Some really good international fighters have been pre-empted by Chris 'Talentless' Leben and his ilk...
As for Liddell, I never really thought much of his style (or lack thereof)... he has great takedown defense, but I've always thought a good striker could pick him apart without much trouble- the only thing he had was that ridiculous knockout power and his aggression once someone was stunned.
