Chuck Liddell vs Cro Cop Fantasy Fight

[Hydrated RDA]

This is a breakdown between s prime Liddell vs a prime Cro Cop.
Size Advantage: Although Liddell is a LHW and Mirko is a HW, the size is actually pretty even. They both walk around from 217-227 and are both 6’2. So there is no really size advantage.
Striking Advantage: Although Mirko is a more polished striker, he’s been KO’d/ out striked by grapplers/Wrestlers (Kevin Randleman, Fedor, and Gonzaga.) While Liddell isn’t as technical striker he’s still a solid striker that’s very explosive and powerful. Mirko’s chin was a bit suspect in his prime. While, Liddell’s chin was great in his prime. I’d give the striking advantage by an edge to Cro Cop but I could see Liddell catching him.
Wrestling Advantage: The wrestling advantage is tough for the reason that although Liddell is a better wrestler, but I don’t know if he’d be able to take Mirko down because of Mirko’s great TDD. I’d give the advantage to Liddell by a slight advantage .
Prediction: I see this fight going similar to when Randleman KO’d Cro Cop. I see Liddell pressuring him, and catching him clean KO’ing him.

This isn't the first time i've read someone talk about this match up. I'm as baffled as i was before that people think Chuck would stand any sort of chance.

I think it's possible for Chuck to win I just don't see it happening like 80% of the time.

Chuck is fucked in this fight.

In his prime he only lost to HW champions and he obliterated 205ers moving up.

CC got outstruck by Gonzaga, Kongo, Mir and Schuab in sanctioned fights. Just lol at putting him in the same sentence as Liddell.

The only fantasy here would be whatever is in Chuck's head after he gets KTFO

Lidell went over to pride in hopes of him vs wand, but never got past page.

In that time frame mir ko flatlines him.

Later in their careers it’s tougher to say, think chuck might have been able to catch him.

Assuming we're taking the best version of both, Chuck die

 

[Fedor>Cain]

Prime Chuck couldn't hang with rampage....but he gonna fuck with prime cro cop?

I mean Chuck would have some chance but not IMHO a good one, I think with his style Crocop would brutalise him with kicks without much pressure, maybe finish via livershot.

Having watched these two in their primes from start to finish I think it's safe to say Cro Cop would take Chuck out. Too precise and technical for Chuck to handle.
