Former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Tito Ortiz will be the next entrant into the UFC's Hall of Fame. Dana White confirmed the news following the UFC 150 press conference.

“He’s definitely a part of the history of the sport,” White told MMAWeekly.com.

Ortiz induction will take place during the UFC Fan Expo on the same weekend he will face Forrest Griffin at UFC 148. Ortiz has stated that the July 7th bout will be his last as he plans on retiring from competition.

Of course Tito deserves it.

If Tito does not deserve it, no one does. He has done everything asked of him and has fought all the top guys. Frank Shamrock? different story. He never was a top guy...just had more conditioning than Tito...something Tito corrected.
