Andre Dida: "Never have I seen Shogun so focused."
by Jason Benfari on February 23, 2008

After exciting victories at K-1 Hero's, the Brazilian fighter Andre Dida
is preparing himself for his next challenger which is set to take place for the new Japanese promotion called
DREAM. The curitibano, who is training at Universidade da Luta, talked
about Shogun's next fight against UFC legend Chuck Liddell.

"I think he is focused," said Dida. "I have known him since 15, 16 years of age and never have I seen Shogun so
focused. He is exciting everyone who is training with him. He is moving so fast; it's amazing! He weighs 220lb and running as if he was
180lb."

Dida believes that Chuck needs to work harder to improve his game against Shogun.

"If you ask me who has to improve their game between Maurício and Chuck, I think Chuck has got to improve because Shogun faced opponents better than The Iceman; and Shogun has a full game that needs few adjustments."
