There is a rumour that Tito Ortiz leaves the show mid-way through the season and is replaced by Rich Franklin, who will fight Chuck Liddell at UFC 114. Dana has taken the "wait and see" approach but he insists the Liddell/Ortiz fight is still on. Well... ... this pretty much confirms the rumour now doesn't it? Props to cage potato for the image.
Re: The cat is out of the bag, re: TUF 11 (spoilers) Good to see - I wouldn't have been able to stomach a full season of Tito.
Re: The cat is out of the bag, re: TUF 11 (spoilers - updated) ^ LOL @ Franklin with the perpetual black eye.
Re: The cat is out of the bag, re: TUF 11 (spoilers - updated) That looks pretty damn good if it is fake. Interesting matchup, who do you think takes it? Hopefully Chuck!!!
Re: The cat is out of the bag, re: TUF 11 (spoilers - updated) Liddell/Franklin is official, UFC announced it today.
Re: The cat is out of the bag, re: TUF 11 (spoilers - updated) Franklin picks away at him for three rounds and picks up a UD, IMHO.
Re: The cat is out of the bag, re: TUF 11 (spoilers - updated) That is what I'm thinking happens, too. Franklin is very techinical. Unless Chuck can flash back to his prime one last time, I don't see him being able to catch Rich...unless of course, Rich has slowed down, too. None the less, I'll be rooting for a Chuck win!!!
Re: The cat is out of the bag, re: TUF 11 (spoilers - updated) sigh, such a useless match, that being said I hope we see a classic Chuck KO. at least that will be exciting.
Re: The cat is out of the bag, re: TUF 11 (spoilers - updated) So it would seem there is a $5m confidentiality clause that goes along with TUF. Tito, not wanting to be sued by telling everyone he left the show for some reason, released this statement: "I haven't lied to anyone. I was told not to say "Anything"! Having a chance to be sued for $5 million was not a chance I wanted to take. So watch TUF 11 and see what happens. I was just doing what I was told, for once. Sorry!"
