07/01/09 - Dana talks UFC 100: Liddell v Anderson Silva, CroCop return all possible

Chuck Liddell could face Anderson Silva at UFC 100, according to organisation president Dana White.

He says the match would be possible if former light-heavyweight champion Liddell wins his next fight.

"If Chuck can win in his next fight, then we could see that fight. Liddell has been open to fighting Anderson, so maybe that can be a fight we can make," White explained.

He also said that he would be open to talking with Mirko ‘CroCop' Filopovic about returning to the UFC in time for the iconic 100th show.

"We will welcome him with open arms. He is a guy that I respect, and when he left, there was really no bad blood," White said.

"He needed to clear some things up, so if he wants to come back, he is welcome."

The UFC has said little about what format its 100th show will take, but industry pundits expect to see a show that is out of the ordinary.

One rumour has it that all five title belts will be on the line at the event, which would mean at least ten star names on the card.
