Liddell, called The Iceman, missed a shot, then Franklin countered with a quick right hook to the chin. Liddell dropped like a sack of potatoes after that hook landed, then Franklin connected with another powerful show while the former champ was on the ground, but the game was already over.
Liddell had been taking a break from the ring since being K-O'd by Mauricio Rua over a year ago in Montreal at UFC 97. It was the 3rd time he'd been knocked out, and took the time off to get back on his feet.
