Third time is (hopefully) the charm.

Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Light Heavyweight Champions, Forrest Griffin vs. Tito Ortiz, will try and settle their score in a 205-pound rubber match in the co-main event of UFC 148: "Silva vs. Sonnen 2" on July 7, 2012 from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

"The People's Champion" took home a split decision win in their first encounter at UFC 59 over six years ago while the original "Ultimate Fighter" evened things up at UFC 106 a few years later. This bout will serves as the last for Ortiz, who announced his pending retirement earlier this year.
