And…why are the guys from PRIDE who have such a great history and come in with so much hype suck and lose so badly? What gives?

He has obviously forgotten who helped him out. He might have helped UFC get on the map (Personally I feel Ken Shamrock did this, he was a great fighter back in the day-) but UFC made it possible for him to put them on the map. Dana has even sponsored Tito. He sucks and is over-rated. He won't be missed. He doesn't fight that often anyhow. When they announced his fight, I was like "bout time he fought"- You know who I miss... Arloski the bull dog. Dana has done a lot to help Tito. He has obviously forgotten who helped him out.

It was slow, weak, and pathetic. Forest didn't fight his best either and even said after the fight he was too nice bc he knew Tito was injured and hurting during the fight. Every fight I have seen Tito in lately has been WEAK. I am trying to be a fan, but common. He BARELY wins. His fights lately have been boring and slow and just a snore. Plus, he barely fights that much anyhow. His "ground and pound" game hasn't been strong or convincing. His older past fights might have been good, so those who have been watching UFC awhile know what he is capable of. But for new watchers, Tito is LAME and past his prime and done. I think he is burnt out. He also gets injured easily it seems. I won't miss his big head and pale chicken legs. Good riddens. I hope he gets a nice piece of humble pie when he loses and gets his big head bashed in. He may try to justify the need for more money bc of what he puts his body through, but no one is making him fight. He can do something else, and thats the problem, he doesn't know anything else.

Tito fought Frank only once and frank knocked Tito out. That was in 1999. Frank was the undefeated ufc middleweight.

Great for EliteXC. Bad for any type of Tito comeback. Frank will knock him out like he did the first probably even quicker. Tito signs to that fight and he's about to get all that hype knocked out of him by the legend. A Tito rematch against Frank Shamrock? Great for EliteXC.

It really shows that he doesn't have the balls to fight the best of the best, and would rather hang on to his fleeting glory by fighting a retired legend that he beat 3 times in a row. God forbid he get thrown in there with the best of the best, he'd get torn up. Regardless of how you feel about Tito.. its rather sad that he even suggested a ‘rematch’ against Frank Shamrock.

How do you expect to get respect when you turn down a third of the fights offered to you. Even when he was the Light Heavy Champ he wanted to pick his own fights so that he wouldn't lose. I believe that if he were to fight any of the top light heavy weights he would lose. Jackson, Griffin, Liddell, Shogun, Wanderlei, Machida, Evans, Jardine and Sokoudjou. All of them are better than Tito. I'm sure that if Tito would just shut his mouth and fight whoever they put in front of him, then Dana will respect him more and try to promote him. Instead he cries about fights he wants and doesn't get and not getting paid enough and constantly rips Dana White. In the end of the day, he is your boss. You are under contract and you have to do what he says. I give Tito a little credit on how he promotes himself before a fight and gets fans interested, but when the bell rings.....big let down. He beats lesser opponents and recently loses to those equal or better than him. Lyoto Machida is like the San Antonio Spurs....He's not flashy or talks a lot, but he wins. As for him and Frank Shamrock......NO CHANCE. Tito Ortiz is done. How do you expect to get respect when you turn down a third of the fights offered to you.
