I hope he will win his last fight !
hot b!tch
Tito use to be a great fighter and I respect him for that but I just can not listen to his repeated grandpa stories about his former glory. You never hear Randy or Chuck going like that.
Tito is a legend but I wish he wouldn't need to keep reminding us about it. Guaranteed he will try his best to fit in every interview something about either his surgeries, having the most title defenses at LHW, having the most UFC fights, having every fight in the UFC (which is wrong) or that he was a "5 time world champion".
I think he has learned his Wikipedia off by heart.
Still respect him a lot though, great at what he did and has overcame a lot of adversity. Win or loss I hope he goes out with a bang against Forrest.
Tito loves Tito thats for sure...but i think he has been pretty good to his fans.
Tito has huge achievements in the octagon, I think he remains one of the few guys to never be knocked out.
I think Tito's major problem throughout his career has been controlling his self admiration, which has cost him respect with other fighters like chuck and also uncle Dana. PPV he has been awesome for the UFC. Thats why the UFC and Tito have reconciled to help the Mexican market.
Despite Tito's constant talk about his awards and injuries, Tito is becoming a much better guy nowadays, but everyone remembers his past.
I never use to think highly of Ortiz, but on reflection he definetly deserves respect and I think post UFC I hope he stays around.
I'm sure if you\ trained with the guy or hung out with tito he would be a cool dude.
Its not that he is reminding it to us it has to do with himself keeping it fresh so he wont forget
Hey Fight, it's an interview, not a porno, nix the stupid music so we can here Tito low talking.
Im still amazed he married a woman thats screwed more men than the plague. Tito is pretty much a joke now and he did it to himself. No one else to blame.
