Man, I'm disappointed in the result

 

^^^ i Hear yah...the guy needs to retire...he is just like hes brother, stuborn and old!! He USSSSSED to be bad *** but now is just washed out. Diaz is a good fighter and i wish him the best...I wanna see tito ortiz fight again...whats up with him?

 

Well, admittedly, Frank still looked good up until he got trashed by Cung Le. Even in his DQ against Renzo, he looked fine, and he looked downright good against Baroni. But yeah, Cung Le was Frank's Waterloo, time for Frank to call it a day.

Oh, and Tito fell out of good graces with Dana White and is in MMA league limbo right now

 

Tito is getting washed up, he should just retire. Otherwise he'll get the same beatdown he gave to Ken later on lol

His contract was up in the UFC and Dana didn't want to renew or give him more money.

 

Frank didn't take Cung seriously. He acted like he was Nick Diaz during that fight, and got picked apart by Cung.

Plus his ribs were messed up before the fight with Diaz and Diaz happened to hit jackpot with that shot to the gut, which basically ended the fight.

 

oh nice, i work at the marriott downtown SJ

 

TurnWRX: Correct on both counts

 

I think tito looks better now than he has in the last few years. I don't think guys like him are "washed up," it's more like the game just passed them by.

If you're still improving I don't see how you can call someone washed up and he's still improving.

I HATE machida. Obviously he's good but I just hate his style. He basically just runs around. He looked like he was scared of tito the whole damn fight. Tito should have just rushed his *** but it looked like he was scared of getting caught. He really didn't take any abuse until he got caught with the knee. That fight was about as irritating to watch as the filho vs sonnen fight.
Tito did find when he was aggressive. He just let himself get frustrated and left some opennings.

I think he's still got some wins or at least some competitive worth while fights in him.

I'm more interested to see how chuck does. If he looses it might be time to call it.

 

^Tito just doesn't seem like he can shoot in like he use to. If he can't shoot and get the takedown, he can't use his famous ground n pound skills. It's most likely due to all the injuries he's accumulated and hasn't fully recovered.

As for Lyoto, he may look like he's running scared all the time, but that is his tactic. Get u frustrated and have u chase him. Move from side to side, feint a punch, kick, feint a kick, punch, rinse and repeat. You can't lose if u don't get hit. He may be an extremely boring fighter to watch, but his style of fighting is extremely effective.

Liddell is similar in that way where he moves around and waits for u to attack, and then counterattacks. The fact that he almost never goes to the ground makes him a one dimensional fighter, but it's his style and it's effective as well.

I think Wanderlei Silva's also losing his edge. He just doesn't have that "axe murderer" attitude anymore.

Heck, it seems like all the Pride fighters that came to the UFC are losing their edge, with maybe an exception to Rampage. Could just be that they have some ring rust.

 

Forgot to mention, saw that Denis Kang vs Alan Belcher fight last week, was really surprised Kang lost (fought well just made a mistake and paid for it) considering how good he was in Pride.

Plus the Henderson vs Franklin fight seemed like Dan was outta gas by the 2nd round.

 

Ever since everybody declared Kang to be the next big thing about 3 years ago, he let it go to his head and always makes stupid mistakes. Let at the way he got caught in the triangle against Moussasi or the way he let his hands drop when he fought Akiyama.

 

Nick ****ed Ken up. That was some good ****.

 

don't worry, Akiyama will tear Belcher a new one.

There's no way Belcher can beat Akiyama, mark my words.

 

There's still one fight left for Tito and Frank...

Rematch Tito Ortiz vs. Frank Shamrock

So yeah, that and a rematch with Cung, I'd say Shamrock still has at least 2 fights in him

 

I have never been a fan of Tito. Obviously he has some talent to have been in the UFC, but I do not think he is "that" talented. He is just a meat head IMO, and does not really have a full appreciation for the sport or martial arts.
