Hey Chuck Liddell...Now Who's Your Daddy?

The scene was enough to melt the coldest heart!

When the final blow struck Chuck Liddell, it appeared that he would cry.

No, I am not talking about the blow by Shogun Rua that laid Chuck out on the mat, or the last blow Rua landed before the ref pulled him off the fallen idol of millions of MMA fans, as the Iceman lay almost in a fetal position on the floor of the octagon.

The blow I am referring to was even worse than a feared low blow to the groin.

As Chuck, in all his sorrow, tried to exit the octagon, he once considered his home, he was pulled aside by Dana White and told to remain.

Dana White was supposed to be Chuck Liddell's dearest friend.

They buddied around and partied together, entertained each other in their homes, were friends to each other's children—they were everything best pals should be: always there for each other, they protected each others backs.

In fact, Chuck had just stood up for friend Dana who had been lambasted for an unfortunate choice of words which enraged even non-fans of the MMA, by excusing him because—"that's just typical Dana and his mouth." No biggie!

But like the loyal guy he is, Chuck remained behind to be confronted with a microphone and the really low blow from friend Dana, as delivered by Joe Rogan in an upbeat voice, that this would in essence be Chuck's last fight in the UFC.

Way to go Dana! Why not just hit him while he is down.

The suffering in Liddell's eyes was plain for all to see. The ultimate sense of betrayal.

He had lost the fourth of his last five fights and now had been cut off at the knees by one he considered a friend.

How humiliating for him.

As much as I have voiced a dislike for Chuck's character, I almost cried at the cruel sight.

This will haunt me for a long, long time.
