Cue the “if only he was training partners with Josh Neer” jokes.

American conservative political commentator Sean Hannity has been trying his hand at MMA for the last couple of months. The controversial broadcaster showed off some of the techniques he’s been learning on his Fox show Hannity, with none other than Chuck “The Iceman” Liddell.

Now, a lot of people would be looking forward to seeing the former UFC light heavyweight champion beat seven shades of right out of the TV personality. However, if this is what you’re after you’ll be grossly disappointed. Hannity is, rather depressingly, not too bad.

Here’s a crazy idea. With the UFC looking for an opponent for CM Punk’s promotional debut, perhaps the 53-year-old Hannity could be a worthy adversary for the former WWE superstar. Think of how conflicted liberal MMA fans would be.
