One of MMA's biggest feuds ever is over

Originally Posted by MMAWeekly.com


Could it be? On the same day that Tiger Woods missed the cut for only the second time in his professional golfing career, it appears that hell may just have frozen over.

Apparently, the longstanding feud between former UFC light heavyweight champion Tito Ortiz and UFC president Dana White is over.

Yes, over.

At least according to their Twitter exchange on Friday afternoon.

"Yeah, me and (Dana White) made up. I'm expecting to be inside the Octagon again soon," Ortiz posted on his Twitter account.

Minutes later, White confirmed Ortiz' comments, posting on his own Twitter account, "Yes, Tito and I made up."

Although White fell short of saying that his arms were open to a Tito Ortiz return to the Octagon. "Doesn't mean he's back," posted the brash executive. "It means we aren't smashing each other anymore and we don't hate each other."

Of course, it's not out of the realm of possibility, since they have obviously upgraded their status from "Extreme Danger" to "Caution," that Ortiz could find his way back into the Octagon.

Since leaving the UFC following a loss to current champion Lyoto Machida, Ortiz has been in negotiations, first with the now defunct EliteXC, then Affliction, and most recently, Strikeforce.

In fact, less than three weeks ago in an interview with MMAWeekly.com, Ortiz sounded as if Strikeforce was all but a done deal.

"I'm in negotiations right now with Strikeforce and working with CBS and Showtime, so all three of us are going back and forth to make a contract that makes sense to me," he revealed at the time.

"Hopefully by October I'll be competing. We're finishing the contract I'd say with CBS, Showtime, and Strikeforce and making a deal that UFC can't match."

With the UFC's worth being estimated at more than a billion dollars, it wouldn't seem that much would be out of the juggernaught's reach, other than a network television deal.

"I managed to come off a huge back surgery. It's been a year since I've competed. I think one warm-up fight to get things going," Ortiz said in the MMAWeekly.com interview. "After that, I don't want no more warm-up fights. I'm hoping by my fourth fight, possibly fight Fedor Emelianenko at a catchweight. That'd be something that I'm looking forward to possibly by the middle of next year."

That's one other element that the UFC currently can't deliver, Fedor. But the promotion is maxing out many of its top stars with most of its events booked out until October, with the notable absence of a headline bout for its Sept. 19 landing in Dallas. And love him or hate him, Ortiz has a legion of followers and the UFC history that makes him an acceptable headliner or, at the least, a feature bout.

Of course, all of that is pure speculation as neither Ortiz nor White was available for comment – outside of their Twitter posts – at the time of publication. For now, all we know is that one of the most entertaining feuds in MMA history is winding down.

Surprising, Ortiz back in UFC?

Let's hope so.

If that is the case, we'll most likely get Ortiz vs. Rich Franklin, which would be awesome.

Yeah, it's already a rumor for UFC 103, false of course since he hasn't even entered into negotiations yet as far as I know. atm, it will most likely be Franklin/Cane but Ortiz/Franklin is a fight I'd like to see.

Re: One of MMA's biggest feuds ever is over

i lol'd a bit, so many trashtalk and suddenly it would be over just like that.
Tito is'n in a position to claim a lot, wherever he want's to go. agree he still has his name but he comes from a heavy backinjury. did'n fight in a year. lost his last matches and now needs to get back on track. and it looks like Dana and the UFC are gonna give him another oportunity...???
or are they just gonna use his "name" another time and gonna feed him some fights he just can't win.
and so Dana has the pleasure of seeing him get beat up and earn money while it's happens

Re: One of MMA's biggest feuds ever is over

Yeah, but I think Ortiz still wants that catchweight fight with Fedor. My best bet is just to go back to UFC if I was him. Strikeforce isn't going to make a deal the UFC can't match. It's impossible.

Re: One of MMA's biggest feuds ever is over

Tito is a legend and basically one of the first guys who went mainstream for the UFC.

If he is really back at 100%, he could be a force. He is basically the only guy who came close in beating Machida...yeah he got smoked the all fight, but he almost won with that triangle choke.

A fight against Franklin is interesting, but in reality they all are at this point. Whomever he fights, will be something I'd wanna watch.

What about another fight with Lidell, or a rematch against Rashad Evans, or maybe even matching him with Anderson Silva...all these fights would rock.

Meh. I dunno. I havent seen much of Tito lately. If he can power out huge matches with Rich Franklin, which would be awesome, or a Forrest Griffin rematch, I'll shut up.

Re: One of MMA's biggest feuds ever is over

Well Tito more then held his own against the last 3 champions at LHW ... Hope the UFC doesn't make a Ortiz/Liddell Trilogy and Tito somehow manage to beat a aging Chuck!

Franklin vs Ortiz would be a classic Grappler vs Striker Match ... I think Tito would get Knocked out though.


Be good to see the cocky git back ruffling some feathers ..
