Vs. Liu Kang

I was just wondering if I could get the forum's thoughts on fighting Liu Kang. I really struggle when I have to fight him (even an AI Liu beats me more times than not.)

He has almost no recovery time between combos. I block through one set, and then, expecting there to be an opening, I let my guard down to attempt a combo of my own; but much to my frustration, he doesn't seem to take any time after having a combo blocked.

Moreover, his various fireballs and long kicks always zone me out like it's no one's business.

Does anyone else have problems with Liu Kang? Playing players of my skill level, I can hold my own reasonably well against most characters, but Kang just has my number. Any thoughts/suggestions?

Thanks a lot.
