Chuck Liddell tells story about a DJ boasting he can take the UFC star’s hardest punch

In his prime, Chuck Liddell was one of the most feared men both inside and outside the UFC Octagon. But for some, getting to experience “The Iceman” in some way is somewhat of a bucket list item.

Liddell recently spoke with MMA Fighting to recount a rather colorful story back in 2009 during a Kentucky Derby weekend.

“We’re out there for the Kentucky Derby and I was out one night at the club. This DJ comes up to me and goes ‘I’ve been training, I think I can take a body shot from you.’ I’m like no you’re not, I’ve been drinking and I don’t want to hit you.
