CHUCK LIDDELL PROMOTES 300

Warner Bros. is teaming with Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Light Heavyweight Champion Chuck Liddell, a.k.a. "The Iceman," to promote its 300 film.

Warner Bros. is sponsoring Liddell in his next Ultimate Fight in Las Vegas on Saturday.

In addition, Liddell will be making personal appearances and will lend his name and likeness to a variety of other promotions that will be taking place across the country in the months leading up to the film's release.

This is not Liddell's first involvement with a comics property. He was a guest-star on Spike TV's Blade: The Series, fighting with Kirk Jones' Blade (see right).
