Liddell/Ortiz III is a Bad Idea
Liddell/Ortiz III is a Bad Idea
September 13, 2018
By Ryan Porzl
In late 2009, the UFC announced Chuck Liddell and Tito Ortiz would coach the 11th season of the Ultimate Fighter and then face off for a third time in the main event of UFC 115 in June 2010. The fight never happened as Ortiz pulled out due to neck surgery and Liddell faced Rich Franklin who he lost to. With Liddell forced into retirement later in the year and Ortiz retiring in 2012, then went to Bellator, and then retired again in 2017, it looked like the door was shut on the third fight. Fast forward to 2018 and after being released from the UFC, Liddell not only announced his return to fighting but that a third Ortiz fight was being planned. After months of rumors, it was officially announced in August that Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions would hold the fight and that it was set for November 24th. Obviously, just about everyone except the participants see this as a horrible idea but I figure why not jump in and give reasons why this shouldn't be happening.

Gary Moore - We Want Moore! - Murder In The Skies Live
With September 11th, it makes me think of the Gary Moore song "Murder In The Skies". I know the song is about the Russians shooting down a Korean plane (it's 35th Anniversary was back on September 1st) but despite that and the fact it was written in 1983, it can almost be a September 11th song with the chorus being
"Murder In The Skies, Came Without a Warning
Murder In The Skies, Black September Morning".
Murder In The Skies, Black September Morning".
I know Gary was Irish but it would've been interesting to do a September 11th version.

Sad to hear about Burt Reynolds' death. Haven't really seen any of his movies as my fond memories are all the times Siskel & Ebert trashed his assemble line car chase films of the late 70s and early 80s. Seriously, Ebert's old reviews are still up and awesome. Also, he did Cop & a Half which lead to classic Siskel & Ebert moments as Ebert was one of the few to love it which drove Siskel absolutely nuts. Like I said a year ago, I don't know when Siskel & Ebert were funnier: trashing bad Burt Reynolds movies or bad Eddie Murphy movies.
