The thing is even tho he was injured and losing for much of his later career with the UFC he was still competitive against the top guys. I remember after their fight Rashad said that he didn't expect Tito to be so strong. That means something when a stud like Rashad thinks you're strong. Mind you this was already after Tito's back problems which later resulted in fusion surgery.
Why do roid heads and lifters love this gay sh*t ?It's the worse combat sport there is.One giant advert for energy drinks and sh*t clothing.

Mind you this was already after Tito's back problems which later resulted in fusion surgery. A lot of people don't realize that Tito was pretty much the UFC at one time. He was the main dude responsible for turning the UFC from debt to dollars. Tito vs Shamrock was absolutely huge and the beginning point in which the UFC went mainstream. I remember as a teen walking in 7/11 and seeing Tito VS Sham on a tapout magazine and buying it. Then I went home and saw them promoting the fight on ESPN. That was major stuff for a sport that until that time lived mostly in the underground and the net. I never liked Tito in his prime because like Ken I thought he was a punk. Tito was the bad guy you loved to hate. He later showed himself to be a better person coaching on TUF and thats where he earned me as a fan.I'll root for Tito either way but after all these surgeries he needs to call it quit.
Would have loved to see a Prime Tito Ortiz VS Tbombz
Tito has a broken neck. Bout with Jackson is off. PPV is now FREE.
Long Beach
hey, omr, is bjorn uber rich?
What about the beach?
I lived there when I was in college. Very diverse: wealthy part, gay part, college part, ghetto part. It has it all. The beach really sucked, though, dirty and overrun by older thonged "men."
The LBC....
Wow. I'm a Tito fan but he needs to give it up. Injuries robbed him of his explosiveness over 10 years ago. He's still a tough son of a bitch but he just can't beat UFC level fighters any more. All he's been doing is putting his body through hell for the last several years. Now with all these serious injuries he could really be fucked up for life. I wish him the best though. I've met him several times and he's always been really cool to me.
