Shogun Not Thinking About Belt, Focused On Liddell

From Tatame.com:

“Liddell is a good fighter, hits hard, but [Wanderlei] said that if I go there focused and with gas, I win this fight. Of course I was happy with the victory [over Mark Coleman], but I wasn’t happy with my performance. I can be better than I was in that fight. I wasn’t happy with my performance and I will turn this around, give the best of me in the next (against Liddell). I know my potential and I know where I can go, I wasn’t happy. I don’t think about the belt now, I only think in Liddell, he deserves respect. I just think in this fight. Surely this is a fight that will put me forward, but I don’t believe in belt yet.”
