Whether he wins or loses May 24 in Las Vegas against Lyoto Machida, it certainly appears Tito Ortiz will end his 11-year Ultimate Fighting Championship career. But there will be no televised celebration of his accomplishments when the fight is over.
UFC president Dana White will want it to end as quietly as possible, with Ortiz as an afterthought, and the crowning of the undefeated Machida as a new top star.
After years of a very public war between the promoter and one of his top stars, the UFC 84 fight essentially determines who gets in the last word.
“He’s one of the most dishonest human beings I’ve ever met,” White said. “I put up with him when he was a good fighter. He’s not anymore. He’s done. I’m no longer in the Tito Ortiz business.”

I would like to see the look on Danas face if Tito pulled oit out against Machida. You have to think if this fight go's to a dec. and its close Machida is going to get the win. Hopefully it gets finished, but I doubt it.

I'm sure he will, but its gonna be quite a bit till he does. First he has to be retired, than he'll be in the long waiting line to get into the HoF. I'm gonna say something like 5 to 7 years after he retires he will be inducted.

Tito's got this fight in a bag. If you really think Machida can beat Tito, you must be smoking something.

Tito should have just fought Dana instead of ducking him. I would much rather hear talk Dana than anymore of Tito's complains and weird b/s he says.

I agree, Dana worked his ass off to get ready for thier fight and Tito ducks him. B/S. Its not a wonder he wasnt done with him sooner.
