It seems like it might be SpikeTV pushing this more than the UFC. They put a lot of work into this I’m sure as well as sold advertising slots (although, if I were an advertiser I’d be pissed if this didn’t warrant a refund).

I agree, it’s beyond ridiculous… but I just can’t see the UFC wanting to make themselves look bad, so I disagree with Jesse that they are responsible for airing this.

It would be funny if Dana knocks him out…

It would be pretty funny to see Dana showing up at UFC 70 with his face all bruised up :D

dude im soo sick of this thing first of all who REALLY wants to see a wrestler with ok stand up and a 40 yr old ex boxer who probably used to get whooped on box id rather see a rerunof unleashed or somthin

Ill just say it one last time: The two DID NOT fight or box — it was called off.

Wat? there were posts all over mma sites saying Tito chickenedout of the fight and no showed…(he said for fincial reason he backed out, that what jenna Jamiesonb told him to say….(i wonder where she learned that busines motto u gotta get paid).. so how and when was the fight? what is this a video montage special here wwe styl?? i bet its just a pvv hype essentially.. pwf tito had bad blood with lots of ppl in ufc and can never back any of histrash talking up reshard evan will own him in 1st round man!..its a long fall for tito since he lost to chcuk..good luck to white if the fight happens or happned!!

UFCmania – dont you think theres a chance that the fight wasnt called off? You that Dana loves to fuck with media. Like when he said that there wasnt a chance of the UFC buying pride then days later they bought pride. If the fight never happened, then why are they still advertising it? It would be pretty fucked up build all the fans up for a fight that never happened. Im just saying that I wouldnt be surprised if they fought and are just trying to fuck with all the hardcore mma fans. Because honestly, the casual ufc fan is really going to think that this fight happened. Alot of people dont pay close attention and have better things to do besides blogging about random mma news bits. I do tho, hah

That would make no sense. I think Tito and Dana have better things to do with their time. Well, maybe Dana does.

This drama is what i’m starting no not like about the UFC. Just fight and stfu! I dont need to know your mom is doing his cousin, and your brother beat up his nephew, or any other of this bs! MMA is supposed to be a respectful art of Martial Arts, get ur shit together Dana.

yawn

Hey Mania its time to start yelling!

i’m gonna watch this if for no other reason than to see dana train, i want to see how he looks in sparring or whatever, i got a lot of respect for the guy and want to see if he can throw…also i want to see if they try to make tito look bad for backing out, its understandable if they do because it was his idea, but he had some good reasons not too, he is a professional and exhibition or not he should get paid, especially if they were gonna air it on spike, and he should have at least been given one commercial or something for punishment athletics, i like both guys, i’ll consider it like a inside the ufc or one of those rachelle leah things, it should be cool…

dude im soo sick of this thing first of all who REALLY wants to see a wrestler with ok stand up and a 40 yr old ex boxer who probably used to get whooped on box id rather see a rerunof unleashed or somthin

you might want to see it if that wrestler with ok stand up name is tito ortiz and the 40 yr. old ex boxer is named dana white, dude if they really boxed you wouldn’t watch it????

check titos myspace to see what happened or didnt

I hope somebody leaves with a black eye.

Tell me Tito didn’t say,’ I’m not looking to get anything outta this, I’m just looking to fight Dana.‘? Then why back out. I’ll tell you why. His training patners getting in his head saying, Dana puts his mind to it he can do things. Tito knew to look bad to Dana was a Bad thing to do. If by some chance Dana laid him out what would that show everyone? The pressure was to much for Tito. Ever notice Tito is Always saying, ‘that guy was my best friend!! I feel betrayed!!’ What a clown. I think Dana would have floored him personally.

TITO JUST REMEMBER WHEN YOU WAS WRESETLING COUCH AT SANTA ANA HIGH WITH A SHADY PAY AND A LOW LEVEL HOME AT THE BARRIO
NOW U WANNA BITE THE HAND OF HOW TAKE U OUT OF THAT.

I think the MMA is getting like the WWE…All hype & Fake!!!
I have a better chance of getting out of my wheelchair & walking…

yep, just like i thought, they tried to make tito look bad, he didn’t get to explain why he didn’t show or any of that, but it was a pretty informative show, def not a waste of time i enjoyed it…

tito is a bitch. he pussyed out against dana and can explain his way out of this. i wanna drop kick him in the face. dana is the man and tito can suck my d***.

dana ain’t no pussy, but lets get serious those big guys he was sparring with had no where near the level of cardio that tito has, tito would have punished him, there’s no doubt in my mind, don’t buy the hype that show was just selling…

tito is a bitch and cant explain his way out of this. i think dana would have won. i wanna drop kick tito in the face. he talks so much and does nothing. hes gay i hate him.

This TOTALLY SUCKED….I mean what the hell…Tito backs out at the last minute. I didn’t really care for Tito in the first place. I have always thought he’s a LOUD mouth arrogant S.O.B. Runs like a little BITCH when someone hits him (GO ICEMAN!!) and now has proven to the world he’s nothing more than a chicken shit. After all that, I really hope Dana considers letting “the bad boy” go over to one of those other fighting organizations or somewhere else that those of us that want to see real fighters, DON’T watch…and not allowing him to fight again in the UFC. Hey Tito…ya could be like good old “Tank”, I hear the WWE is looking for some more “entertainers”, you know the ones who like to pretend fight.

selling yea but still tito shouldn’t have backed out…it seems to me that tito has sold out dana many times before and is has been getting greedy for the green throughout his career…i’m a huge tito ortiz fan but some of the business decisions he’s made are fucked up…look at liddell, he has his fans, sponsership deals, any fight he wants, etc. etc. the way the show aired it seemed as if tito fucked up but i guess we have to wait for tito’s part…

IT WAS A GOOD SHOW BUT TITO SHOULD HAVE FOUGHT HIM I WILL FIGHT MY BOSS FOR FREE IF I COULD HE NEEDS TO JUST GET OVER IT AND THE WINNER GETS HIV I MEAN JEANNA ORTIZ

Ill just say it one last time: The two DID NOT fight or box — it was called off.

WHAT?!?! So I DVRd this for NOTHING?

Jk =p

I watched the first 45mins of it lastnight. Alot of good info, Spike and the UFC made it more of a backround with Tito and Dana then it was Tito Vs. Dana. Overall I think they still did it with integrity… but Tito just continues to make bad career choices after another. And Tito’s ex wife is pretty damn hot… Id take her over a thin and scaley Jenna anyday.

I’ve got ONE thing to say here about Tito wanting/wanted to fight Dana.
Where the hell is the respect man!
Tito needs his ass kicked for even thinking of such a thing.
Do you not see how much YOU have become because of Dana?
I’m just blown away by this suggestion PERIOD!
I guess it’s time for Chuck Liddell to kick Tito’s ass “again”.

Fookin hell…whats next – Bruce Buffer V Mike Goldberg ! i dont wanna see that shit, rather see a bar room brawl
Tito will NEVER be LHW Champion, he should return to Middleweight, he’d kick ass there

What a waste of my time! so are they ever fighting, I feel sorry for Dana, I get the feeling he really believed in himself

Tito Ortiz made the worst choice he could have, not showing.
How many fighters fight when shit’s not going perfect in their lives or they have injuries.
    The odds would be on Tito winning and Dana White was still willing to throw down. The thought of looking bad against Dana was enough to make Ortiz go back on his word. Ortiz “was” a good fighter but he never had any honor.
    Dana jumped through hoops to put this thing together while trying to maintain a fighters routine…..I’m fuckin blown away by this, I hope we never see Tito Ortiz again in this sport.

This was all for show. Why else would they put the hour or 2 hour(can’t remember)show of Dana training and Ortiz backing out on TV unless they wanted to build Hype. I think they will end of fighting because of this but with UFC rules not boxing.

I watched the show on Spike – all hype, no show. Yes, it’s true – Tito wussed out at the last second. Can’t you guys see it? He’s washed up in UFC – nobody likes his loud mouth cockyness, only wants to fight for a belt (which we all know, Ice Man will win – he’s won twice against Tito) – and Tito’s wife is controlling his career now. She’s got the scent of $$ in her sights and if it doesn’t fit into her budget, Tito doesn’t do it. And I’ll agree with some of you above – the UFC is turning to be like WWE – all entertainment. Take Pride fighting for example – that is still a true sport bringing in competitors from all over the globe. UFC is just entertainment now and big $$ floating around (props to Dana for bring in major $$ to the UFC, but no props for making a mockery of the true MMA sport and turning the UFC into a remake of the WWE).

If we see a fight between Dana and Tito – cool, it’ll be fun to watch – but I’m not holding my breath.

i feel tito knew he was more man and is jus getting read to whip chuck ass and take back what is his chuck got lucky
now its titos time and he will be champ

Hey MTU, your the corrector of all things dumb…is this Not the dumbest thing of All time? Where are you man? Defend us.

I agree tito made a mistake on how he pulled out. This is a business so in the end it was not a smart move for him. I’m sure the details were never ironed out, therefore resulting in a cancelled fight. They still got everybody to watch the bad blood episode and they never layed hands on eachother. That’s product!

Also think about this, it is in titos contract that they spar and they didn’t so their will be a rematch of some sort
