Default Should The UFC Cut Ties With Tito Ortiz

So, things are really heating up between UFC President Dana White and LHW Tito Ortiz. Their war of words is garnering more attention than the other particpant Lyoto Machida. Machida has been soft spoken since this whole conflict transpired. With all of the bickering going on, should the UFC cut ties with Tito Ortiz? Win or lose, should Dana White and the Fertitas just sever ties after the Machida fight, or should they make an effort to resign him. Below are the past 5 fights of arguably the best guys at LHW in the UFC, and how their records stack up against Tito Ortiz.

In my opinion, it's best at this point and time for both parties to go their seperate ways. There has been some bad business and immaturity played out in both parties.

However, as far as his talent goes, alot of people say that Tito's talent has diminished. People, including Dana White, critcize him because his only fights that he finished were against Ken Shamrcok. However, if I remember correctly, it was Dana White who brought Shamrock back and pushed that Ultimate Fighter grudge match and was quick to push a rematch and promote the hell out of it.

So should they walk away from each other, or should this dysfunctional marriage keep on going?
