Former UFC light heavyweight titleholder Tito Ortiz re-signed with The Ultimate Fighting Championship in late July ending 13 months of free agency, and “The Huntington Beach Bad Boy” is already rekindling old rivalries.
Ortiz takes on Forrest Griffin in his return to the Octagon in a rematch at UFC 106 on Nov. 21 in Las Vegas, but the 34-year-old fighter has been lobbying to get a third bout with his old nemesis Chuck Liddell in 2010.

I think we all saw this one coming. It's a big money bout for Tito and one he feels he could win at this point in their careers.

How awesome would it be if Chuck went in and KTFO'd Tito again? Tito probably thinks Chuck is done and now is his time to cash in. I would love to see the Iceman rise to the occasion and end his career on a note like that!

I'm really wanting to see this fight.
I think it would tell us a lot about both guys at these points in their career.
Though I actually wouldn't be suprised if Tito managed to pull this out.
Nonetheless,I can't count Chucky out either.

Awesome enough that it warrants the giant dancing banana

Big $$$ for UFC though it doesn't make any sense minding the record between these two (2-0 Chuck's). Imgine the amount of trash talk from Tito if he can pull a win in the 3rd one.
I don't want to enter the banana size discussion since I'm happy with my average sized one

I think Tito's in for a surprise if he thinks Chuck's skill level has declined to the point where he can win this fight.
Probably just angling for a slice of the PPV. I'm not really too interested in this fight personally, but it would be nice to see Chuck get another stoppage over a big head... I mean name.

I think he feels that he will lose the fight he has with Forrest, the next step down in comp (unfortunately due to recent losses) would be a guy like Chuck. I just think it would be a shame if Tito was the guy to cash in on that and end Chuck's career. I also think it would be funny if Chuck blew his head off his shoulder's for the pre-fight crap we all know he would be talking. "I'm injury free this time" ect.... I think it's also an easy way to get Tito back in the LHW title picture if he did defeat both Forrest and Chuck. They should have Tito (if he losses to Forrest) start back at the bottom of the totem poll. Chuck should re-start there IMO as well.
