I was surprised enough last night, when watching ESPNews, to see a five-minute interview with Chuck Liddell. My surprise soon turned to disbelief as I saw that ESPN had designated their "question of the day" poll to determining who would win the main event at UFC 71. The onslaught of coverage being dedicated to this event has now taken on another level with the announcement that the UFC 71 weigh in will be televised tonight on ESPNews. Don't miss it!
"The weigh-in for UFC 71, which features the Chuck Liddell-Quinton "Rampage" Jackson rematch in the main event, will be televised live by ESPNEWS on May 25 at 7 p.m., the UFC announced during a conference call on Thursday.
ESPNEWS will also have interviews with Liddell and Jackson immediately following their UFC light-heavyweight championship fight on pay-per-view on May 26 at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas.
"We're very pleased to be working with ESPN and we're all looking forward to cultivating this new relationship with them," said UFC publicist Jennifer Wenk, who served as moderator for the conference call because UFC president Dana White was unable to because of a cold."
