Should Chuck Liddell Retire?

After losing 3 of the last 4 of his fights, a lot of people think Chuck Liddell should hang up his gloves. I ask…why? At only 38 I think he still has plenty of good fights in him. But if he plans on trying to regain that championship title, one way or another Chuck is going to have to change his game. Making the same mistake twice is not something that happens very often with Liddell. Perhaps he underestimated Rashad Evans. If any fighter should not be under-estimated, it’s Evans.
Chuck has been winning matches the same way for years and I seriously think he needs to change the way he fights in a drastic way if he wants to get the belt back one more time before he retires. Is he getting too predictable? Maybe, maybe not. You can not predict how and when Chuck will open up the flood gates of combos. All you do is learn to defend it and look for that opening and take advantage of it and that’s exactly what the Gardine, Jackson and Evans did. So what’s ahead for "The Iceman"? ONly time will tell, but I’m sure we haven’t seen the last of him in the octagon.
