In three days, Chuck Liddell and Tito Ortiz will square off for the third time at The Forum in Los Angeles. Their unexpected trilogy has drawn a mixed reaction from the MMA community. Golden Boy Promotions' Oscar De La Hoya would have you believe fans have waited years for this, which is simply not true. Liddell is 48, and hasn't fought since 2010. Ortiz is 43, and lost the first two meetings convincingly.
Liddell wants to prove he's still got it and, frankly, never lost it. It's no secret his decision to retire in 2011 was heavily influenced by Dana White, his friend and the president of the UFC.
And for Ortiz, this is a chance to rectify what he's always seen as one of the greatest wrongs of his career. The way Ortiz sees it, the UFC favored Liddell during their rivalry and stacked the deck against him whenever it could.
