After the fight, Pride star Dan Henderson entered the ring to challenge Jackson.

Liddell said after he planned to continue fighting, with UFC president Dana White saying Brazilian Wanderlei Silva would be his likely next opponent.

''I still love to fight. Nothing's changed. So yeah, I'll keep training and fighting. All stuff like this makes me want to do is get back in the gym and train more. I was in great shape for this fight and I was healthy. I made a mistake. I'll be back.''

The card drew a sellout of 14,728 and a live gate of US$4.3 million.

Could this be the first PRIDE Vs UFC Supercard with Hendo Vs Rampaga? If so its not looking so bad.

Yeah I just read this on MMANews myself, I mean it is not the super fight that it would have been months ago but it could still be an awesome fight.

I reckon Silva will wreck this boy..

Liddell is an excellent fighter even after this loss, against Wandi however I see him jumping back on the winning wagon.

Oh, I would have picked Wandi even if Liddell had beaten Jackson. I love his style and the way he matches up against the Iceman. Wandi has taken it to Rampage.

Yeah that is true Rampage took not one but two beatings at the hands of Wandi but I still think that Liddell would beat him.
