I'm afraid Chuck, like Matt Hughes, cannot be beaten.

I'd love to see the fight, but I believe Chuck will knock Tito out.

Different weight classes, but I'd love to see Chuck Liddell fight Matt Hughes...omg...:eek:

Never that I know of...it's bloody and seems violent, but boxing seems much more dangerous to me...the refs in UFC stop the bout the second a guy can't defend himself or taps out.

How many times have you seen a boxer getting pummelled while he's out on his feet but hasn't fallen down yet?

I love watching the UFC on Spike.

I wouldn't use Matt Hughes as as example. Georges St Pierre whooped his butt a couple weeks back.

Not to mention BJ Penn was handing Hughes his ***, before he cracked a rib.

Some of them get pretty messed up but the refs will call a fight if the guy is loopy.

There has only been one death in MMA history in 1995 and it was boxer Jimmy Garcia.

I wondered what happened to Penn because he was dominating him.

Pierre is one of the most impressive fighters I have ever seen and one of my favorites.

Pierre and Penn would be a good fight.
