UFC 129 Fight Card: Video Preview Featuring 'Executive Iceman' Chuck Liddell

After suffering his third consecutive knockout loss in a fight against Rich Franklin at UFC 115, Chuck Liddell announced his retirement and was appointed Vice President of Business Development by UFC president Dana White.

Since taking his new position with the UFC, many have wondered what role Liddell actually plays in the day-to-day goings-on within the company.

In this newly-released preview for UFC 129, Liddell's responsibilities are finally revealed in a humorous way.

During the video, Liddell decides to end a conference on his own terms, organizes the UFC 129 fight card, reminds Tito Ortiz that nobody likes him and knocks out a co-worker.

Obviously, this isn't what Liddell's real job with the UFC entails, but it is good to see that the organization is allowing him to remain connected to the fans.

UFC 129 will take place on April 30, 2011 at the Rogers Centre in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The event is expected to break the North American MMA attendance record with 55,000 tickets already sold out.
