Couture, Silva and Liddell in Champions Forever Special
Former UFC champions Randy Couture and Chuck Liddell, and former Pride FC champion Wanderlei Silva are all interviewed about the trio's rivalry in a monumental 8-page special in the September issue of Fighters Only magazine.

HENDERSON, NV, August 19, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- issue 7 of Fighters Only, the world's leading Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) and lifestyle magazine, goes on sale featuring a world exclusive 'Champions Forever' cover, photo shoot and feature. Former UFC champions Randy Couture and Chuck Liddell, and former Pride FC champion Wanderlei Silva are all interviewed about the trio's rivalry in a monumental 8-page special.

As well as discussing their rivalry the athletes comment on what the future holds for them when they choose to retire as well as their thoughts on participating in, and laying the foundations for, what has often been termed the fastest growing sport in the world.

Fighters Only Managing Director Rob Hewitt:

"To get these three icons together was an absolute dream for us. Between them they have been responsible for some of the best fights in the sport and they really set the standard for what a champion should be. Considering the wars that these fighters have been in to see them laughing joking together just shows what professionals they are."


Fighters Only's principal photographer Eric Williams comments of the shoot:

"My assistant called the cover shoot the Mount Rushmore photo of MMA and I agree. I was carving history that day. 15-20 years from now that image will stand the test of time as the first time it was ever done. Anyone else that does it is just copying what Fighters Only did."

The three fighters have a record of just under 100 fights between them and a combined experience of 36 years in MMA. The bout between Wanderlei Silva and Chuck Liddell was voted Fight of the Year by fans at the 2008 World MMA Awards. Randy Couture's next fight takes place at UFC 102 against Antonio 'Minotauro' Nogueira on August 29th.
