He controlled the octogon and had Wandy backing up and against the cage the whole fight. And yes, Chuck did hurt Wandy bad a few times in that fight with a spinning backfist and a combo of punches that DID just about KO Wandy.

(UFC judging is shit like that) Wandy never hurt Chuck? lol good as ko’d him 4 times.

How can you say Wandy was winning? Wandy was never ahead in that fight. That fight was on the ground for about a total of about 30 sec. in that entire fight and Chuck won a unanimous decision.

Wandy wasn't winning the stand up, Chuck bout KO'd him 2 or 3 times in that fight in the stand up. Wandy never hurt Chuck as much as Chuck hurt him. What fight were you watchin?

Wandy was clearly beating him till Chuck decided it was time to take him down (and let him get back up again in secs) I’m sorry but Chuck didn’t beat any of those guys via stand up….

Hughes record speaks for itself, a spectacular (44-7) and Chuck's record was a great (20-3) before losing his last 4 of 5 fights on the downslide of his career. Chuck hasn't talked any crap to anyone besides Tito's dumbass and Matt hasn't talked any shit to anyone besides GSP, who is gay, anyway. Everyone Hughes has talked shit about, talks shit about him, first. Like Serra, Trigg and BJ. They are two of the best MMA fighters of all time.

Dana made him the poster boy just like Matt hughes. Oh boy Matt Huges was cocky he was talking shit about GSP and him Chuck were both clowning on toher fighters. I'm glad Matt and Chuck got what they deserved for talkin shit. I agree some are bad match ups but he wasnt the best though. Dana made him the poster boy just like Matt hughes.

He KO'd a tall, great kick boxer, Alistair Overeem in Pride and Guy Mezger. He's also beaten Vitor Belfort, Wanderlei, Vernon White, Randleman and Amar Suloev and there all good strikers and well rounded opponents. I do think Chuck could beat Jardine, Shogun and Evans in his prime. Hell, in the Evans fight he was winning til he got caught. Back in the day Chuck had a iron chin. Guy Mezger hit Chuck with a bomb, pretty much the same as Rashad did and Chuck popped right back up and KO'd Mezger shortly after. Rampage is a bad match up for Chuck. Fights are all about match ups. Some fighters just match up bad with other fighters. Also those names you mentioned that Chuck KO'd(Couture, Babalu, Horn and Ortiz) they are all pretty damn good all around fighters.

Chuck beat all of his opponents because they were Wrestlers and Grapplers. Tito ortiz twice (wrestler), Randy couture twice (wrestler). Bablu twice (grappler Jiu jit su) Jeremy horn (grappler) What happens when Chuck faces a real striker and well rounded opponent. He gets knocked out. Rampage, Shogun, rashad. HELL he even coudn't beat Jardine. SO your saying that Chuck Lidell is the best of all time. Do you think he could beat the opponents that knocked him out i his prime.
