Chuck Liddell and the late TapouT co-founder, Charles "Mask" Lewis Jr., will be inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame on Friday. UFC president Dana White confirmed the news via his Twitter account Monday night. Liddell and Lewis will join Royce Gracie, Dan Severn, Mark Coleman, Ken Shamrock, and Randy Couture as the only members in the UFC Hall of Fame.

White also mentioned that the induction ceremony will take place during the UFC Fan Expo at the Mandalay Bay Events Center at 6:30PM PT.

Two new names will be added to the short list of those inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame on July 10 as part of UFC's Fan Expo during UFC 100 weekend.

To date, only five have earned the honor: Ken Shamrock, Royce Gracie, Dan Severn, Randy Couture and Mark Coleman.

The UFC has not released the names of the new inductees, but if I were to venture a guess, I would think that former UFC light-heavyweight champion Chuck Liddell is a lock for one of the slots. While Liddell has not officially retired (he's currently on vacation), UFC President Dana White has repeatedly stated "the Iceman" is done in the octagon.
