You wouldn't call Liddel technical striker?! He is the quintessential, not to mention wildly popular, counter-striker. He leads the pace with heavy 1-2's while he waits for a mistake and then explodes. Man, have you watched his fights?! Every KO starts with him slipping, bobbing, or coming over the top of an opponent's strike.
One of my favorites was against unforunately one of my favorite fighters, Sobral. In their second fight when Sobral hit him once or twice, Liddell starts back-pedaling like he's being overwhelmed, Sobral charges in, and the out of nowhere Liddell plants his back foot and just rocks Sobral with an uppercut from hell. It was beautiful.
