Yeah just re-watched it. He definitely got dominated. But I wouldn't say he didn't know what he was doing on his back. He had a pretty good guard, he was able to pull off a few sweeps. The mistakes came from reversals.

Tito is just a shadow of his former self, his performances have become lackluster and are all the same. He doesnt know any better and cant switch anything up. I'm looking forward to the day his career in MMA ends.

I'm not sure which is worse, tito saying this or saying he would make Rashad his "nappy headed bitch" during that whole Don Imus thing. I still think Rashad is going to suprise alot of us and actually show up in shape for a fight and make this one a SD instead of a UD.
i hope rashad kills him...tito is a bitch

Ortiz spends too much time trying to market his own ass. He should spend more time training because he's going to have a handful with Rashad.
Rashad by UD.
If bloody Forrest Griffin can knock Tito down, I believe Rashad stands a very good chance of winning by KO/TKO.

When did Forrest knock Tito down?

im by no means a tito fan, but the guy can sell a fight. i have rashad picked by ud, but the more i think about it the more im leaning towards titos experience. that and the fact that i havent seen rashad against a top fighter. rashad keeps looking better and better every time out there,and the only way to find out if he is that good is a match like this. im just hoping it doesnt turn into a cuddlefest on the ground with neither guy trying to improve positon, i could see either one hoping for a win on takedowns and LnP
Ortiz hasn't finished a guy not named Shamrock in quite a while now so look at the record.
P.S. Rashad has evolved beyond Lay and Pray

I think Rashad takes this one. "Pillow Hands" Ortiz isn't going to knock anyone out standing, and I think Rashad has the edge in wrestling. I think Ortiz is in for a swift kick in the ass, which hopefully sends him packing from the UFC.

Tito, aside from being a completely unremarkable, overrated fighter also proves himself to be one of the most classless men in mixed martial arts. He has a big mouth, but he also has a great deal of trouble backing up what he says.
Not only would a combatant being paralysed or at least relegated to a wheelchair be disastrous for MMA PR, Tito is severly underestimating Rashad if he thinks he's going to have an easy time.
I like this fight. Neither of the competitors are top class, in fact, by my estimation, they're a long long way from the top of a division that is packed with incredible talent right now, moreso than ever before. What makes this fight so interesting is the level of animosity present and active between the two fighters, And Tito's schoolboy remarks make it even better, though they don't do a lot for him imo!
