The following is an excerpt from an interview with Tito Ortiz, conducted by MMAToday.com:
MMAToday: What can we expect from you in 2007?
Tito Ortiz: More movies? My heart is really in fighting right now and I'm in fighting mode. I want to keep going with Punishment Athletics. I'm a business man then a fighter and then actor man but fighter first and foremost now. My next fight is in May against Keith Jardine.
MMAToday: Where do you see yourself in the UFC title picture at Light Heavyweight?
Tito Ortiz: I'm in the top 3. I will fight any of them. I fought Liddell and made some mistakes but that won't happen again. He has been dominant and done what he has done, so have I and I will do it again.
MMAToday: What motivates you to continue fighting and training after an almost 10 year professional career of fighting?
Tito Ortiz: My fans and the drive to be the best. It's a mixture of both.
MMAToday: Who are your favorite fighters to watch?
Tito Ortiz: GSP #1. He has a hard work ethic and is very exciting, what he did to Matt Hughes was impressive. Brandon Vera is exciting and hits hard, he's a good wrestler and has good jiu-jitsu.
MMAToday: Are there any fighters you want to fight that you haven't had a chance to yet?
Tito Ortiz: Shogun Rua would be an awesome fight, I'd love to fight him, Wanderlei just lost and I'd love to fight him again. Dan Henderson would be great. I will fight anyone and make it exciting for the fans. I just want to keep people buying pay per views and keep the fans entertained. Me and Chuck did it right and broke records for pay per view buys.
