Makes sense to me. Him and Tito train together so they might be good friends?

If by some stroke of genius Shammy found an anti-ageing compound and was able to pull of the miracle which is what it would be if he beat Tito and Chuck. It would be the single greatest comeback/upset in the history of MMA and would also provide quite the media frenzy. But i just wanna see Shammy pull off a shockin heel hook and beat Tito on free TV. Maybe Tito will be "injured" in his prefight training but go through with the fight anyway.

That's a common misconception.I always thought they trained together as well ,but I was proven wrong.Tito and Rampage are really good friends ,but they don't train together.Tito trains with team punishment up in Big Bear and Rampage has another camp he trains with up there.Barnett is in the same camp as Rampage.

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Light Heavyweight Champion Chuck "Iceman" Liddell appeared on MMAWeekly SoundOff Radio this week where he discussed his UFC 63 victory over Renato "Babalu" Sobral amongst other topics.

Liddell told MMAWeekly that his next opponent will most likely be "The Huntington Beach Bad Boy" Tito Ortiz provided Ortiz gets past Ken Shamrock on October 10th.

Liddell has been pushing hard to get a fight with Wanderlei Silva, and the deal seemed to be close to happening, but fell through recently. Liddell said he felt as if Pride used the in-Octagon announcement as a promotional tool with no real intention of actually putting the fight together. "They pulled out," Liddell explained. He stated that he doesn’t think it has anything to do with Wanderlei Silva, but with the Pride organization.

Besides a rematch with Ortiz and a fight with Wanderlei Silva, Chuck indicated that he would like to fight Quinton Jackson again. Jackson defeated Liddell in the Pride Middleweight Grand Prix in 2003, and Liddell wants to avenge that loss. The UFC Light Heavyweight Champion said "Rampage" signed with World Fighting Alliance (WFA) to avoid fighting him.

Questioned whether he would consider moving up to the heavyweight division, Liddell didn’t rule out the possibility. "I’ll fight anyone," he proclaimed.

When the 36-year-old was asked how much longer he thinks he’ll be competing in mixed martial arts, Liddell replied, "I’m taking that one day at a time." Although Liddell gets a little bit older every day, he assured MMAWeekly he has no plans of hanging the gloves up anytime soon.

Chuck says Tito will be his next opponent provided that he gets past Ken Shamrock.

CHUCK IS THE MAN... ID LIKE TO SEE HIM AND AA GO AT IT!!! CRAZY!!!

its a bunch of bs that tito gets all of his demands filled, he gets paid a shitload more then a lot of top fightres in the ufc and gets a title shot. beating forrest griffen and ken shamrock isnt that impressive. although he did BARLEY beat vitor, which was a split so it could have went eaither way. he wont stand a chance aginst chuck and not really looking foward to tito vs. chuck. except it will be funny to see what he will say after this loss. i cant see any interesting fights with chuck unless he faces like wand or shogun from pride, but i doubt that that will happen.

[matto]

i couldnt see it being wand's fault, he has the additude that he will fight anybody, and i doubt that rampage didnt sign with the ufc just because he didnt want to re face chuck, wasnt he paid more or something?

Height and reach, Chuck would die. It wouldn't be even be fair or competitive IMO.

AA is still the best UFC HW, he has been really unlucky in his last 2 fights. He should've put the 1st rematch with Sylvia away (his own fault) and the 3rd fight just really sucked, AA should've gone for the takedown especially is his leg was fucked like he claimed (he stated that as the reason he stopped with the inside leg icks that were doing great damage to Sylva's knee). AA was very timid after the second fight where he was careless and though he had the fight won and Sylva's roid rage (no one but Sylva knows for sure but most people think he is still on roids given his history) allowed him to jump up after being hit by an AA right hand.

If Chuck landed a clean shot AA would probably crumble but the reach would be huge in a ddition to the weight advantage.

Also to add... Rampage will fight anyone, he is not ducking Chuck, for fuck's sake man, he fought Wand twice and ended up with a broken nose, 2 bleeding eyes and taking a knap on the ropes.

aa would beat chuck and is the best ufc hw. rampage isnt ducking chuck he is just getting paid more. althought i bet that chuck would beat him in a rematch, and u cant blame chuck for wanting to avenge his loss.
