icemnJuly 3, (THAINDIAN NEWS) The American mixed martial artist and former Ultimate Fighting Championship’s light heavyweight champion Chuck Liddel might not fight in UFC 116 after losing in UFC 115 against Rich Franklin. However, the former refuses to comment anything about his career. However, UFC President Dana White said that he would not allow his friend Chuck Liddel to fight again in the Octagon.

The UFC President made it clear in the press conference on Thursday that he hopes that his friend Chuck Liddel quits the next championship for his on sake. Chuck Liddel’s chin is seriously injured and it is known to all the players as well. Dana White said that anybody who had been in this sport long enough remembers that one should be able to “hit” him in the face with a “crow bar” and then “You couldn’t even wobble him.” However, with Chuck Liddel’s injured chin, that’s not the case anymore.

The UFC President Dana White said that he would go out for a dinner with his dear friend to discuss about his future as the former did not wish to make money out of the latter’s weakness. The same incident happened when Chuck Liddel lost the UFC 97 but at that time he could convince Dana White to give him one more chance. This time however, Dana White said that he would not listen to Chuck Liddel. The former UFC champion was not found for any comments. He only said that he was undecided about his future and he was looking forward to have a talk with Dana White and come to a conclusion about it.
