Jon Moxley has accomplished a lot over the last year, and the AEW World Champion has been doing a lot of work as of late to promote his new movie Cagefighter.
Former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Chuck Liddell is also in the movie, and he recently spoke to Wrestling Inc. about whether or not he thinks Moxley could be a legitimate fighter.
“I didn’t get to see him do any bag work. Just seeing him moving around and punching around the ring, he’s probably not going to fight Josh Barnett anytime soon. But he’s an athlete and is very professional. If you’re an athlete and have got a chin, with time I could teach him how to fight. But you’ve gotta take the time to do that.”
Liddell was also asked if he’s ever had any pro wrestling training, and he noted that he’s had some opportunities, but things never lined up.
“No, but now looking back, I had some opportunities and probably could have done it. But I never got around to it because I was always doing something. Maybe one day I’ll go take one of these guys I know and have them take me through a session just for fun. That could be kinda fun.”
Cagefighter is out now and the trailer can be seen below.
