In an interview with ESPN Magazine, Chuck "The Iceman" Liddell states that he had planned on fighting in his scheduled bout with Rashad Evans at UFC 85 in London. UFC boss Dana White had to step in and tell Chuck they wouldn't let him fight.
"I was going to fight, too," Liddell says. But then White called and said to forget it, to heal up and come back 100 percent.
Pretty ballsy to hop in the cage with a torn hamstring. Liddell is tough for even considering fighting that injured.
