Golden Boy Promotions Liddell vs Ortiz 3 Results





Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions made it's first foray into MMA on November 24th featuring a Main Event of Chuck Liddell vs Tito Ortiz from The Forum in Inglewood, California. Liddell beat Ortiz in each of their first two bouts but that was many years ago. This time the forty-eight year old Liddell was clearly not that same fighter but still had that knockout power. However he couldn't land that solid shot as he circled letting Ortiz come to him. There were some brief exchanges before Ortiz dropped him and followed up to get the knockout. In the Co-Main Event Deron Winn remained undefeated and lived up to the hype taking a decision from veteran Tom Lawlor. Winn landed the harder shots but Lawlor was able to take them and land his own but was unable to return enough and Winn took the decision. Here are all your results and our Of The Night Awards.
