Bisping: I heard Chuck Liddell is ‘pissed’ after losing UFC job, may go to Bellator

[Wild]

“I’m in the circle, where people tell me things,” Bisping said on his Believe You Me podcast. “This is me putting out a disclaimer, if they hear me saying this, I can say ‘I said it was third hand information’, when really it might not be third hand information.

“Somebody at the weekend told me that Chuck Liddell is really pissed off, because he had a pretty sweet deal with the UFC when he left this job. He was an ambassador for the UFC. I believe he was on $1 million a year, that’s the number I heard.

“It was great that the UFC was doing that, but now of course, new UFC owners came in,” Bisping said. “I heard that Chuck was really pissed off, so that’s why he’s possibly going over to Bellator.”

Bisping enjoys stirring the shit. I'm sure Chuck is pissed. Who wouldn't want to make a mill a year for nothing. Chuck is an all time great and done a lot for the sport, but he should stay retired. If he wants to go to Bellator, I'm sure he can make some money with appearances or something that doesn't require more brain damage.

If they would have paid their stars properly there would be no need for a gift job at 1 mil a year.chuck randy tito and hughes should be living fat after carrying the ufc on their backs in their era

Bisping vs Chuck for the 185 title will be the next fight for Bisping. Mark my words.

This is kind of a "whatever", because there was that report of Chuck meeting with Coker - so we all essentially heard the same thing. I like Bisping, but he's acting like he has inside dirt and basically just reporting the outside dirt. Like the guy on twitter who pretends to "confirm" all the reports from the actual reporters to act like he has inside info.

I mean, maybe he does, but it's not new news, you know?

Chuck's got a family. Why would you do that to him?

Chuck's got a family. Why would you do that to him?

Seriously though that fight is more likely than Bisping facing Yoel or Whittaker.

The Million dollar number is about 3 times what I was told the UFC was paying him. I was also told that Chuck a few months ago turned down an offer worth several hundred thousand from Bellator.

AND Charles is doing auto Graff signings . We just bought a bunch of them for charity for Boys Clubs and resold them for donations.

I have a feeling that the real reason he is going to Bellator is because Dana won't let him fight any more for his health. I think he really has the itch to fight.

The Million dollar number is about 3 times what I was told the UFC was paying him. I was also told that Chuck a few months ago turned down an offer worth several hundred thousand from Bellator.

So that would make what around 300k a year? Not bad at all.

I have a feeling that the real reason he is going to Bellator is because Dana won't let him fight any more for his health. I think he really has the itch to fight.

And for once, I fully agree with Dana White.
