If you saw the fight you would notice how many times liddel had the chance to finish it and never did... so I kind of believe that rumor. And IMO that would be has rigged as its gonna get.

Prior to the "ko" telligman slyly winks at tim, who then flurries and ends with the "brutal" high kick....if you watch it again, you will not only see the "wink" but you will also see that the slapping sound of the kick was late...this was due to the sound engineer missing his cue for the "kick sound".

If you watch the first 3 knock-downs... when liddel got on top of him and started throwing the hammer, he could have kept going until horns face was mush... but he didnt, he would just hop up ad let him go.

Organized fighting events by which many of people other than the fighters, stand to make big money have and will always be currupt to some degree. Its human nature. The greedy cannot and will not keep their hands off the stakes.
