Last night, UFC President Dana White announced via Twitter that the the UFC Hall of Fame would be inducting two new members at this weekends UFC Fan Expo.

Hey guys chuck liddell and charles “mask” lewis will be inducted into the ufc hall of fame at the ufc fan expo this friday at 630pm

Chuck Liddell has a current record of 21-7 with a record of 16-6 in the UFC. Liddell became the “face” of the UFC during its rise through the middle part of this decade as he held the UFC light heavyweight and appeared to be invincible.

Time has since caught up with Liddell, and it is uncertain whether or not he will retire or complete the one fight remaining on his current contract.

Charles “Mask” Lewis was an original founder of the Tapout brand of clothing and was a well-known figure in the sport of MMA since its inception.

Liddell and Lewis will join Royce Gracie, Dan Severn, Mark Coleman, Ken Shamrock, and Randy Couture as the only members of the UFC HOF.
