Tony T here with our "Rockstar" quick hitter for Saturday's action. Saturday night on PPV its UFC 88 Breakthrough from the Philips Arena in Atlanta Georgia. In the Main Event a fight in the Light Heavyweight division as Chuck Lidell takes on Rashad Evans. Chuck The Iceman Liddell is the --260 favorite with Rashad Sugar Evans the underdog coming back at +220. This is a big fight for Chuck Liddell. The former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion is coming off a win over Wanderlei Silva but should he fall to Evans here he would have lost 3 out of his last 4 fights and it would be a difficult climb for the 38 year old to get into the title picture. The winner most likely will get a shot at Forrest Griffin for the UFC Light Heavyweight Title. Liddell has wins over very notable opponents like Tito Ortiz and Randy Couture while Evans is facing his toughest opponent to date. Liddell has one of the best punches in MMA and is a finisher in this sport while Evans has many victories come way of the scorecard. Evans will have a tough time getting this awesome striker on the mat and keeping him there. Take Chuck Liddell behind his experience at --260, which will set up a huge PPV bout in the coming months with Griffin. That's why I think Evans will have a hard time getting a win by decision on the Judges scorecards if you get my drift.
