Would you watch...

[TheGumby]

For nostalgia purposes would anyone tune in to watch a Chuck Liddell old school fight against the likes of someone like couture or tito for fun? I'm bored sorry was just thinking about the good ol days of the Iceman

 

[helltoupee]

It would probably be a letdown, so no.

For reference, see Shamrock vs. Gracie 3

UFC should have made a Legends division where nothing but the old guard who no longer fight at the top level can still fight against others on the same Level.



Instead of cutting guys who have faded, continue using them in the "Legends Division".



Then when 1 particular legend goes on a hot streak ...then you could even "gift" him a title shot, that alone would build fan interest in a matchup.

 

[Ceez]

Someone would forget and leave the back door open and a gust of wind would KO Chuck in prefight introductions.

I don't want to see him take anymore damage, one of my favorite all time fighters and watching the last fights of his career killed me

 

[Goodfella86]

I would. Mutually beneficial. I love watching vets fight, and I would be entertained. Their bodies are shot, but I know these guys see Rocky Balboa on TNT every now and then, too. And if they feel like theyve got "some stuff in the basement" or something, they'll want to scratch that itch.

They're not kids, and they're not coming back to fight Rumble. I'm all for Royce/Severn, Couture/Chuck, or something like that. I HATED Saku/Aoki, btw.

Until someone dies lol.

I don't think it's healthy for men in their 50's and maybe 60's fighting in the octagon.

Yea you're right about 50's - 60's, but you could place fighters like Big Nog, Shogun, Machida, Rampage, Gomi, Diego Sanchez, Sherk, Hardy, Penn, Anderson Silva ...in a "Legends Only" Division.

Great fighters who still can compete but are not at the top of the food chain, match them up with other legends for the pure entertainment value.

It's funny people saying there should be a legend division, that's what Bellator is. There are certain matches they make well. Shamrock gracie was an interesting match up in theory. It just didn't play out very well. As long as we don't see anymore match ups like Kimbo vs da da 5000. Kimbo has 1or two interesting /competitive match ups in bellator but these sort of fighters should be used for certain matchup and should maybe healine the prelims to bring attention to the rest of the card rather than steal the limelight from other more relevant up and coming fighters.

 

[Frothy Milk]

Watch, yes. Enjoy, no.

 

[MRDOG]

Yes and so would allot of others. Bellator's recent event proves this.

 

[Spycho]

This is 2016.Of course I would. Would I pay for it? No.
