UFC 85: Chuck Liddell’s Replacement
The UFC has had to start modifying the card for UFC 85 after Chuck “The Iceman” Liddell’s recent hamstring injury.
No announcements on UFC’s part have been made yet but MMAmania claim they have sources to what the fights are going to be.
MMAmania announced that Chuck Liddell will be replaced by James Irvin in the fight against Rashad Evans. It has also been mentioned that a fight between middleweights Michael Bisping and Chris Leben could now also be taking place at the 02 arena in London.
Stay tuned for updates on this fightcard!
Chuck Liddell is Out!
Word is that Chuck “The Iceman” Liddell is out of UFC 85 in London, England. He will not be facing Rashad Evans due to an injury. The extent of the injury is not yet known but the new plan is for the fighters to go at it in the summer once Liddell has recovered.
Maybe Liddell is just not supposed to fight at this event. He was originally supposed to go against Mauricio “Shogun” Rua but Rua ruptured his ACL for the second time in a year, Rashad Evans was his replacement.
No official word has come out from the UFC yet about the injury to Chuck or possible replacement fights or fighters.
