Chuck Liddell Forced To Withdraw From UFC 85 Due to Injury
 Date submitted: 22 April 2008
Author: Kris Karkoski
Former UFC light heavyweight champion Chuck Liddell has suffered a torn hamstring and has been forced to withdraw from his scheduled UFC 85: Liddell vs Evans main event bout against Rashad Evans, the Ultimate Fighting Championship today announced.
Here’s an excerpt from the official announcement:
“Unfortunately, Chuck Liddell tore his right hamstring during training last week, and being the warrior that he is, he still wanted to fight, which is the reason why everyone in the world loves him,” said Dana White, UFC President. “But I wouldn’t let anyone fight with his leg looking that way. Let him heal and come back and fight when he is 100 percent.”
White continued, “We’re adding fights to the card and rearranging it so the UK fans won’t have to worry, we’ll still be bringing an amazing card to London and the O2 Arena. The UFC always delivers.”
The UFC will announce a new main event shortly, along with a full lineup of 13 fights for the UFC 85 card, making it the biggest UFC event in over a decade.
James Irvin may be tapped to replace Liddell against Evans in the UFC 85 main event. Irvin has won three of his four fights in the UFC including his past two straight. His lone loss came as the result of a serious knee injury suffered against Thiago Silva at UFC 71: Liddell vs Jackson II. Inside the octagon he has earned victories over Hector Ramirez, Luis Cane, and a record-setting 8-second knockout of Houston Alexander.
