Anyone else shocked about this UFC fight ? I know I was. I'm not a huge Liddel fan, but I thought he would beat Evans for sure.
Evans knocks Liddell cold at UFC 88
By Kevin Iole and Dave Meltzer 10 hours, 30 minutes ago
ATLANTA – Complete coverage of UFC 88 from Philips Arena:
Light heavyweights: Rashad Evans (17-0-1) def. Chuck Liddell (21-6)
How: TKO, 1:51 Round 2
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. – Kevin Iole
