Dana White won’t rule out Tito Ortiz coming back to UFC one day

While insults and insults were slung between the two over the past year, Tito Ortiz and Dana White aren’t still completely unable to do business again. At least according to UFC president Dana White. “Listen, me and Tito didn’t say anything worse than what we said before he came back and became a coach on The Ultimate Fighter“, said Ortiz to USA Today.  “Tito and I do not like each other. We do not. It’s 100% real, we don’t like each other at all, but it doesn’t mean we haven’t done business together before.”

Fighting Words: Tito Ortiz on Sacrifice

There are lots of sacrifices in becoming a fighter of course, especially an Ultimate Fighter. It’s the hard work … the road work, the lifting, the boxing, the wrestling, the jiu-jitsu. It’s really, really challenging — not going out with your friends. I have friends who are in a rock band Korn, and they go on tour all the time. It seems like every time they go on tour I’m actually in training camp and I can’t go out and hang out with them.

My girlfriend would want to go out and go to the movies or go eat dinner at 7 p.m. — I gotta go train at 7 p.m. I can’t eat dinner. I eat dinner at 10 p.m. or 10:30 p.m. at night. … On the weekends, Saturdays are the days we do our mountain runs and lift weights. I can’t leave the mountain to go have a fun time with my son at Disneyland … because I’m training. I spend time away from my son when I am up at Big Bear. He comes up to visit me once every two or three weeks. I have to sacrifice to make sure I’m in the right shape, the right mindset, so when I step into the Octagon I know I’m ready.–Tito Ortiz talking to the Baltimore Sun
