UFCs Tito Ortiz gets fired on 'Celebrity Apprentice'

Tito Ortiz the apprentice

Props: NBC.com

Quoteworthy:

"Omarosa says she tried to focus their ad to Redbook's audience, but that they had no 'concept.' Omarosa blames Tito and Stephen for this failing. Trace sticks up for Omarosa and holds Tito accountable for the team's loss. Trump asks Tito who he would exonerate and he says that Omarosa worked the hardest. Trump says he finds this commendable, before firing Tito. But because Trump thinks Tito is such an incredible guy, he says he'll personally give Tito's charity $50,000."

Final recap of the boardroom scene last night on NBCs the "Celebrity Apprentice" during which former UFC light heavyweight champion, Tito Ortiz, was fired by Donald Trump.

I saw this episode last night. Funny that this was the only episode i ever watched and Tito gets fired on it. I LOVE IT!! Tito was the project manager and when he goes to do his presentation, it looks like hes about to piss his pants with nervousness. He starts stuttered and lookin like a fool. Donald even calls him out in the board room about it. Good stuff!!

Good now maybe he can focus on kicking overrated Machida’s ass. Alot of people hate Tito for his cockyness but he can still kick most of the 205ers asses Machida will be one of them.

What does a fighter know about soap? It gets rid of some stinky BO. Other than that…….who cares.

Ive watched a couple of times…Tito did good, everyone liked him, made mma look good, even gave UFC props when he left…he just got a little nervous during his presentation, and Omorosa screwed him over..at first she was all about being project manager, then Donald said that more than likely the losing PM would get fired, so then she pushed it on Tito…so the fighter had to do a photo shoot for Dial soap and Redbook magazine, haha, but he did alright just got a little nervous in his presentation, Donald said he was the best fighter though, not past tense, i hope he comes back strong, i think he may get a group of fans from this show

Omorosa is such a bitch. As soon as they mentioned the task she’s like, “I want to be PM, is that OK, I want to be project manager on this one.” Then Trump says whoever loses this challenge the Project Manager’s head would be on the chopping block and she immediately says, “Tito, why don’t you be PM? I don’t have to be do you want to?” What a BITCH.

I’m in a constant state of flux with regard to Tito.

One minute I like him, then next I don’t.

He came off looking really good on the show. Trump didn’t come out of pocket for anyone else’s charity.

I just wish Tito would dump the porn star, then I could get behind him 100 percent.

Omorosa is a bitch and Tito called her on it. She denied ever saying she wanted to be PM and pushed it on Tito. Tito manned up and took on the task even though he didn’t think it was right for him. But when she denied it in the boardroom Tito called it as he saw it, that she was a lier. He said look me in the eyes and tell me you didn’t say this and she couldn’t. Tito is a cool dude no matter what you guys say. I think he does what he believes in and i am a fan. Good work Tito!!!

Now go kick Machida’s ass.

Man Tito’s preso on the show kind of reminded me of Chuck on Good Morning America….LOL

Mark this comment. Tito is going to kill Machida. It will be similar to what he did to Ken and Forrest for the first round.

Icant agree more with you more on this,but im proud that tito did this for charity and the donald even gave him 50 thousand for getting fired,now its time to fight again and thats what tito does best.

If Tito can get ahold of Machida, I think he can take it. But Machida’s a ghost, so evasive, he comes out of every fight unscathed.

by Toms Bombs on Feb 29, 2008 1:49 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

remeber he took a good shot to the chin from Soko and didnt get rocked, but im rooting for Tito on this one I want him to win and get a standing ovation he will get win or lose but its better if he gets the W, and the fans keep asking for him to fight hes still young man he shouldnt reire just yet

Why, to make another boring fight? The only thing he’s done good is his fight with Soukojou (or how ever the hell you spell his name) He’ll get exposed when he steps in with class A fighters so just imagine what will happen with elite fighters

UMMMMMM…u do realize that the show is not filmed LIVE right??? LMAO!!! The show is done filming before it is even aired so hes been focusing on Machida the whole time. Amazes me how dumb some people are

I will laugh Ha when u eat crow.

i wouldnt be suprised….Machida has yet to be tested by a wrestler in any capacity, I can see Tito taking him down, and elbowing the crap out of him from guard, i would like to see how machida reacts when he gets into trouble…i seem like one of the few people that dont think he’s super human…either way, i do think if machida gets past Tito(a good gnp guy) he deserves a title shot soon…and if tito wins i hope he stays with the ufc…but i heard a weird rumor that he might go fight Fedor, i doubt it, but who knows these days

by mma dude on Feb 29, 2008 4:32 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

If for reaason it ever did come down to it, I would be more entertained to have Keith Jardine as the champ than Machida.. The boy has skills but would be a boring champ..I’m not saying that Jardine is entertaining, but I think he would a better sell than Machida.

same for me, 1st time watching it and he gets fired LOL!

tito should get praised for doing a great thing though! LOVE HIM OR HATE him that brings positie exposure to the sport and shows he is pretty good guy aside the hated BAD HYPE he creates in the UFC. remember all his shit talking in the UFC is strictly for ratings!

by blah on Feb 29, 2008 9:27 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

i also think that he will shock the many haters and will surprise machida. Not a big fan of tito, but i will give him his dues. he has done alot in this sport and has beat the best also. So aside from all the haters, i would at least be able to give him that!
