Media Chuck Liddell's delcline dont make any sense..

Rashad was an undefeated fighter when he KO'd Chuck, so no shame in that loss. Unfortunately, I do think Chuck received an irreparable amount of brain damage as a result
 
TBI can impact things like reaction time and coordination. I did a bunch of tests as was fucked up from concussions and they would have something show up on a screen and then you'd press the space bar or something. In my mind I was going as fast as someone could possibly go, but my reaction time was in the bottom like 10%. Probably still isn't great.

Then there'd be tests where you have to figure something out and type it in, like where a certain letter is amongst a bunch of other crap. I was terrible.

This looks like brain damage to me as he just seems to be processing everything extremely slowly.

Are you really trying to compare Liddell to Tyson?
Come on now.

In a way. If Tyson can look like Tyson on the pads. After drugs and even a longer lay off, then Liddell should look like Liddell on the pads.

You would never believe that was a pro fighter if you saw that in the gym. His coach is an embarrassment for not highlighting the deterioration.

He wasn't training with his coach (That called and offered his help several times). The whole shenannigans were apparently run by the wifey.
 
Drugs, time, and taking quite a few brutal knockouts will do that to you. Not to mention he's from that era of guys that sparred hard as fuck way too often. Just look at guys like spencer fisher or almost anyone from the miletich camp.

sorry to hear that, that must've sucked finding that out after the tests.

I just dont get it. He was my fav MMA fighter back in the early 2000s

He got me into watching MMA and UFC.

Looking at how he was moving going into the last "fight".. it just dont look right. Like something is wrong with him.

This was just a few years before the "comeback"


Nothing great. But not that bad either.. now compare to the training for his last fight.



I mean... What the hell?

Father time aside... This aint normal delcline IMO.

Junior Seau was one of my favorite NFL football players and was always a great athlete and great player. He retired in his 40s, obviously couldn’t cope with life outside of football, plus CTE and then shot himself in the chest with a shotgun.
 
The KO from Evans literally ended his career. That’s one of top 10 most vicious knockouts in MMA history.
 
I mean, he did take an eight year break from fighting, and was brutally KOed several times just before his time off.

Not the same person, thus not the same genetics or same a whole lot of things.
 
No, it definitely isn't normal. . . unless we're talking within the context of neurological/brain damage. . . which we clearly are. Is normal.
Tito should be so ashamed to be re-re-re-calling him out. What a loser.
