Dana White is still not a fan of Chuck Liddell fighting again, although he will be coaching against Tito Ortiz on the eleventh season of The Ultimate Fighter.
“The thing that everyone loves about Chuck Liddell was he’s a fighter. That guy loves to fight. And when you’re walking out in that arena and 16,000 people are going crazy and yelling your name and (expletive), it’s hard to walk away from. I get it, but you know, he doesn’t have to do it anymore. He doesn’t,” said White to the media following UFC 108 on Jan. 2.
Dana White also said that although he wanted Liddell to stop fighting, he would like him to stay with the UFC.
“He’s made a lot of money and I’ll pay him more money to (expletive) not fight. He can come in and be the Director of Fun or something. I don’t know, a (expletive) job that he doesn’t have to fight,” commented the UFC president.
Although I am a fan of Chuck Liddell, and I still love to see him fight, I am not a fan of professional athletes that try and stay in the sport as long as they can. I feel that this can hurt their career image as a winner, because people will remember the fights that he lost in the end of his career more than the fights that he won.
