I haven't heard much regarding Tito and his next fight, including which organization it is going to be with. I pray that it is with the UFC and if it is with Affliction-I think it just might be against Fedor. Tito is a big LightHeavyWeight and I think Tito Ortiz vs Fedor Emilienko is the only bout Affliction can put on on July 11 to counter UFC 100 and since it has been mentioned that they are in talks with Tito and Fedor is on the card but still unaware of his opponent-it is a possibility.
I hope Tito comes back to the UFC. If he does he will get his title back. I am a big Tito fan and know that if he has his cardio on that he is a beast. Chuck got his number and Lyoto is just a smart fighter that figured Tito out. Other then them two, I think Tito can get the win decisively. He almost caught Lyoto with that Triangle and he beat the shyt out of Forrest and he beat Rashad but that fight was declared a draw because he lost a point in the second for grabbing the fence repeatedly.
I hope that Tito comes back to the UFC.
So an employee and his boss doesn't get along, thats not the first.
Tito Ortiz vs Rampage Jackson... Make the fight happen Camptain... Please
(Maybe there is a reason why he is in the new UFC game?hhhmm)

I personally don't care about Tito if he can come out and fight like he is suppose to and win fights i am all for him winning but as a Whiner i hate him.
He can't seem to STFU about getting paid more and so on, well if you think your worth that much why didn't affliction sign you?
So ya we will most likely see him in the UFC or Strikeforce.

I have no idea what fight you were watching, but Tito by no means "beat the shyt" out of Griffin. "Beating the shyt" out of someone is getting a KO or a TKO quickly, a decison that could've gone either way is not even relatively close to that. Tito is in UFC Undisputed because the game was development way before he left. The game is way too close to finalizing to just take a person out. THQ does the same thing in all of WWE's games too. Rosters change too much for a game to be right in sync with the real thing.
As far as Tito fighting is concerned, I'd like to see him get back to fighting, but I honestly don't care where he goes. Any promotion he signs with could offer great fights for him. Strikeforce and Affliction would offer "Babalu", seeings how Renato has called Tito out. And with the UFC having a stacked LHW division, he would have many great fights moving back to the org. if Dana wants him back.

I had to answer "Don't Care". Tito fighting wouldn't make me order a PPV. There's too many other established or up and coming fighters to pat attention to.

Thank God people are done buying into this guys crap.
His days as a good fighter are long gone.
He's a one trick pony without a trick, his ground n pound sucks because he cant shoot anymore, and its not his back like he wants all of you to believe. Its his lack of training, lack of will to get better, and him being scared to get punched, thats why his boxing sucks.

He might not be the sharpest tool in the shed but the fact that he wants to sign with Strikeforce instead Affliction should mean something.

You guys are haters. You need to respect what he has done for the sport. And as for that Forrest Griffin fight. He DID infact beat the shyt out of Forrest in that first round. Probably gave Forrest the worst beating he ever took, but the 2nd and 3rd, Tito couldn't take Forrest to the ground, thats all, they exchanged and maybe Forrest got the best of that but Tito probably won that 1st round with a 10 to 4.
Tito needs to sign with the UFC. He still the biggest name in mixed martial arts besides Chuck Liddel and Ken Shamrock.
-In Tito's last 16 fights he is 12-4 with one draw. In that stretch he has only lost to Chuck Liddel, Randy Couture and Lyoto Machida.
Tito has beaten top guys like Guy Mezger, Evan Tanner, Patrick Cote, Wandelia Silva, Ken Shamrock, Vitor Belfort, Forrest Griffin and he also beat Rashad Evans but that was declared a draw because Tito lost a point in the 2nd round. Give the man respect!

He isn't that big of a name anymore. People still know who he is, but guys like Forrest Griffin, Rampage, Anderson Silva, etc...the point is that there are many more big names than Tito Ortiz, the UFC seems to be doing just fine without Tito. It would be cool to see a few matchups with top guys in the UFC, but I don't see Tito being able to make a run for the LHW title or anything. He got deducted a point because he grabbed the cage on takedown attempts by Rashad more than once. Those takedowns could have been enough for Rashad to squeak out a decision if Tito hadn't grabbed the cage. If he comes back yeah that's great, but if he doesn't I don't really care.

More people still recognized the name Tito Ortiz rather then Anderson Silva, Rampage and Forrest. Both casual MMA fans and people who don't even watch it.
But I think Tito can make a run at the LH title if he comes hard and dedicates himself for one more run. Especially now that he successfully had surgery and is ready to get back in the OCTAGON! He said he was %60 and %70 when fighting Chuck, Forrest, Rashad and Lyoto. He f---ed up his back when fighting Couture so although thats an excuse, what if hez not lying?

According to that statement, you basically just said that Forrest should have won a split decision.... You gave Tito the 1st and Forrest the 2nd and 3rd. 10 to 4? In order for a round to be that one sided, you'd have to see complete domination like GSP and Penn 2... Try 10-7 or 10-8.
As for everyone being haters.... I have no problem with Tito. He was a pioneer for the sport. He has my respect for that. But right now there are maybe 2 or 3 fights I'd like to see, other than that I'd be okay without Tito Ortiz.
