i think if they fought again, all 3 rounds would be a replica of the first round in fight 1, ortiz will just rip his face apart until the ref steps in. let him fight babalu when chuck beats him

[darkmanfb44]

I think that Forrest will do alot better in this fight if it goes because of the big fight nerves being gone or greatly reduced. I think he has gained confidence and knows he can beat Tito.

Tito Ortiz made it clear at the UFC 61 post-fight press conference that he doesn't want to take six months off from fighting.

Ortiz said at the press conference, "I would love to fight once before this year's over... and if [Chuck] Liddell is gonna get two fights, then I need to fight at least one more time." So, when does Ortiz want his next fight to happen? Ortiz said, "I would love to be on the November card."

When asked who he wants to fight next, Tito said, "[Forrest] Griffin again. I know a lot of people who thought he beat me the first time, which he didn't. I want to give him a taste of me at 100 percent. He got a taste of me when I was 60 percent."

Of course he is going to say he didn't get beat. And now he is saying that he was 60% after talking trash about Shamrock saying that about their fight. What a joke. I like Tito's work ethic and TUF did help me gain some respect for him, but it is a little too obvious that he is the UFC's golden boy. He beat Forrest on name reognition.

griffin is one of my fav fighters... i love his heart, work ethic, desire, and his attitude... he fights anyone, anytime, doesnt back down, doesnt make excuses. i think ortiz/griffin II would be something great to see and i totally believe that forrest would come out victorious w/o it comin down to judges decision... i feel he got robbed in the first match up bc of titos name recognition as previoulsy stated in this topic. tito sayin he was at 60%, cmon now it always seems like its one thing or another with this guy so i would love to see II... hopefully we will see it.

thats the way it seems....if they do fight again i hope forrest smashes tito's face in, he got jipped last fight

Tito should fight Babalu. If he does fight Forrest again I don't think Forrest will be able to keep Tito from taking him down this time. Anyway, I would rather have Tito fight Babalu. A rematch with Forrest would be cool as well.

Forrest agreed that he lost. Unless you're confusing Forrest's reaction to one judge scoring the first round 10-8 as Forrest reacting to the decision?

definitely. tito can't stop complaining and making excuses. he even went as far as to say that griffin greased his legs and thats why he couldn't take him down. tito's a great fighter but he refuses to give credit unless he's destroyed, a la frank shamrock, couture, and chuck. i guarantee if griffin won that fight, which he easily could have, tito would have been bitching about the decision and saying he was at 30% and forrest won because he's a reality star. the fact is tito's a lot better than anyone griffin had fought at that point(excluding maybe jeremy horn) and he had a lotta hype on his shoulders. obviously tito's going to be better this fight, but don't doubt for a second that griffin is.

No. I want to see Tito fight someone he hasn't fought before.

i think that tito will be more heather in there second fight and he would kick forrest ass...........but i think forrest needs a nother fight before that i would like him to fight jason labart (i know i spelled the last name wrong but he has been doing really good in his last couple of fights..)
