(Props: Fightlinker)
For those of you who didn’t watch it last night — which includes myself, so this post is as much for me as it is for you — here’s Chuck Liddell‘s debut performance on Dancing With the Stars. The first thing that sticks out is his voice in the intro. Liddell’s from Cali, but he’s taken so many blows to the head over the years that he’s starting to sound like a grizzled Sam Elliott. Anna Trebunskaya‘s main piece of advice to Chuck is to smile so he doesn’t come off as a psychopath. Things start out well enough, though the discomfort is obvious on Chuck’s face at the 2:27 mark, and there are a few obviously botched steps. It doesn’t help that Dana White and the Fertitta Brothers are in the front row, laughing their asses off at him the whole time.
Constructive criticism from the judges starts at 3:51: Bruno refers to Chuck as a "gentle neanderthal" and says he has some work to do. Carrie Ann Inaba calls him "smooth" but wants him to improve his footwork. The old guy in the middle asks him to get in touch with his feminine side, and is lucky he didn’t get punched out for it. Chuck’s combined score of 22 put him in 5th place among the eight celebs who competed last night.

commentsYa, that shit is very hard, I give major props to him for doing it as well as he did. He just needs to remember, grandma in a bikini, grandma in a bikini, always works to prevent accidental wood.
At least if Chuck does pop a tent he wouldn't be the first one in show history to do so, see Shawn Johnson from last season and her partner.
I am far more impressed with Chuck than some kid like Aaron Carter who is a pop signer who appeared on Broadway and obviously has dance experience.
3:35 - 3:39 , Chuck looks like a Pimp about to ask for his $$$$$$ !!!
Chuck actually did a lot better than I expected and was at least better than Michael Irvin and Tom Delay.
Make sure you vote for Chuck, I did as many times as I could, at least for a few more weeks of uncomfortably stiff dancing and even more uncomfortale attempts to smile and look nice.
I feel it is the responsbility of PotatoNation to ensure that Chuck Liddell wins the competition (even if it is dancing).
So we have 37 minutes to help him win.
Come on potatonation, lets make sure Chuch does good.
1) Chuck get laid more often than you and all those geeks who made comments like yours, for sure.
2) Before being a wash-up fighter, he is a legend.
3) By trying to be funny, your not funny at all... chicks like guys that have a real sense of humour or a killer-look like Chuck. I guess you don't have both so you probably get laid one time a year with your ugly cousin during that Christmas party at your Grandma's house...
Dana and the Fertittas should get signs that say things like 'Chuck will KO the competition' and 'Don't be Iced by the Iceman' that would bring the whole theme of embarrassment full circle.
