    Where does he stand?

    Are we talking about a fighter who is old and out of the picture but in reality beat Evans and Machida???

    Tito didn't do that bad in either ones of those fights. Physically though he is definitely a spent force.

    not even close to beating him besides the triangle in which Machida pulled off a Houdini move. Machida won 30-27 all rounds

    I'd like to see Tito versus Kevin Randleman. That'd be interesting even though they are on the downsides, the posturing leading up to the fight would be entertaining as well. :yep

    I suppose we will see where hes at if he does indeed fight this summer like he planned. Hes had surgery now on that back injury hes had for years maybe that helps I dont know. I still think hes Top 10 level based on his recent fights and would probablly win his big possible fights outside the UFC with Babalu, Frank Shamrock or maybe Little Nog.
     
  9. Currently he is banging a washed-up pornstar, practicing being a daddy, watching his hair go gray and attempting to get any MMA company to sign some ridiculous/outrageous contract for millions of dollars. He has assured all MMA companies that, if signed, he will bring all new ridiculous attention getting bull**** and all new, even BIGGER ego to their organization. Looks like nobody wants him and I don't blame them. :good
     

  10. :huh

    Tito has the luxury of paying $29.95 a month to not only find out but witness how many blokes his babies mum has banged...

    He won more rounds then the Champ and wouldve likely submitted him had the round not ended,he was closer to beating Machida then anyone,defeated former Champion Forrest.

    But he didn't be the champion Griffin... he beat the in-transistion from being a mid-level worker Forrest to a guy who could eventually compete for a championship.

    The fact is that most of Tito's success has be limited to beating guys who weren't strong contenders or we're still a ways away from being contenders. When he's had to fight the premier fighters of that moment, he's usually lost.

    Most of Tito's aura is based mostly on hype and succeeding at time when the UFC was still arguably the second best MMA company after Pride.
