I never made an excuse for Chuck, I am not even a fan of his.

It was a convincing decision. Jardine didn't do all that much, it was just that Chuck did less. It was an unimpressive win, I am not saying there was any hope Chuck won.

You would think you would at least go to the trouble of watching the video
Maybe you have dial-up.
Anyway, 20seconds in, Houston throws a right leg kick, Jardine lands a nice right to the body and a left with absolutely nothing in it. As Houston brings his leg back it goes from under him, he places his hand behind him and catches himself. Houston then stands directly back to his feet and drives Jardine into the cage. That is not getting rocked. You can clearly see what happens to him in the video, he slips. He even said it himself after the fight.

Give Keith his due, he got beat by a striker leaned his lesson came back and beat a much more dangerous striker in Liddell, and that’s why he's at the top of my list.

I don't think Chuck is washed up, I just think it is odd to put someone who absolutely destroyed someone else lower in the list. A decision win over Liddell is impressive, but not that much.
