In reply to suggestions Chuck Liddell should retire after his April 18th loss to Mauricio “Shogun” Rua, John Hackleman explains his position to Sherdog:
“If Chuck was getting the s–t beat out of him by a bunch of nobodies and getting knocked unconscious all over the place, I would try to influence him to retire,” he continued. “But since I don’t see that –- Rashad was the only time I’ve seen him actually knocked unconscious –- if he really wants to still fight, and I think it’s in his heart, I don’t think anyone, including Dana, should take his livelihood and his love away.”
Dana White, however, disagrees:
“Obviously, John Hackleman didn’t pay his house off yet. John Hackleman needs some money, because anybody who claims they care about Chuck Liddell even a little bit would not be making these f–king statements,” White told Sherdog.com Thursday.
