    Probablly because Tito Ortiz stands up to Dana Whites bull****. Dana has tried to discredit everything Tito has ever accomplished which pisses me off because Titos a huge reason the sport is where its at.

    I don't think he tries to didcredit him too much, and yeah Tito was a huge reason when the UFC was growing his battles with chuck put the UFC on the map. I think another main reason was monetary and his refusal to fight Chuck at the time.

    I dont really know the whole story either, Tito hands down deffinately helped teh UFC become what it is. I dare say he's the most popular figure, then Chuck Liddell, then Matt Hughes, Forrest Griffin, Rich Frank, BJ penn,
    I remember hearing about Tito holding out from some fights, but I am not completely sure what they're rilvary is. It's deffinately a real personal one though, not so much over fighting but just personal, either buisness or something you know??

    I'm not a big Tito fan but I think it has to do with Tito not being happy that Liddel was getting the attention of Dana more both when he was managing them and especially when Dana finally started running the show. Everything else is just topping, but I think that is the begining.

    Not sure if Zuffa owned the UFC at the time of the Shamrock V Ortiz fights, but they made the UFC. Maybe Dana White want to take all of the credit and the money.
