Tito Ortiz vs Keith Jardine

Who wins: Tito Ortiz vs Keith Jardine

I was hoping that this fight would happen....but it doesn't look it will anytime soon. Can Jardine get out of the 1st minute vs Tito?

[Noise Chopped]

Depends, really. I'm not too high on either guys talents, especially Jardine's. He did NOT dominate Chuck Liddell the way most people would have you believe. I had it a close draw, but give the benefit of the doubt to Jardine - But still. It wasn't that impressive a win.

And as for Tito, Jesus. I think he's fallen victim to what Hughes has - The sport's passed them by. The talent's better, you can't hold on to a title for five years and fighting once a year or whatever, hah. Tito's been exposed by Rashad - The fact he couldn't finish Evans says a lot. Got beat by Machida in a fight he had nothing to lose - Which speaks to his heart. Or lack thereof.

I'll give it to Tito. Just 'cause I'm not all that high on Jardine.

I've lost a lot of faith in Tito as a fighter. I think Jardine could take this.

Tito would control Jardine the entire fight and earn a UD.

i agree,i think tito would put jardine on his back and control the fight for a UD or a ref stoppage due to gnp

As long as Tito is able to avoid the first couple haymakers, he would win with conving ground and pound.

Perhaps this fight will happen as I really have a feeling that Tito will be resigning with the UFC now that Lorenzo is more in the picture.

If this happens, I see Tito putting in the time to evolve and quit believing that the Tito of 2001-2003 is able to win high level MMA fights today. Tito will re-tool his game and work his way back to his LHW title.

Jardine, Griffin (rematch, with a convincing win), Rampage, and then a title fight with Shogun.

Ok, enough of the crack pipe....back to work

hed have to beat wand and lyoto as well as evans and thiago cause there all ahead of him in the title contention. Heres how i got the top 10- UFC LHWs

1. Rampage- current UFC champ
2. Forrest- current #1 contender
3. Lyoto - next inline for title shot after griffin, faced high tier competition
4. Thiago- not yet imo faught top tier competition, just 2nd rate competition
5. Rashad- even though im his fan, undefeated but untested
6. Wand- won his last fight in dominating fashion but is 1-3 in his last 4
7. Chuck- 1-2 in has last 3 but won a UD vs silva
8. Shogun- lost his UFC Debut but still top 10 possibly top 5
9. Keith Jardine- up and down type of fighter but still top 10 not top 5
10. Anderson silva- the most dominant UFC MW but have yet to see what he can do @ LHW. i put him @ 10 cause of his dominance @ MW.

Fights outside the UFC shouldn't count against Wandy. Specially a fight at HW against Mirko.

Wandy is 1-1 in the UFC this time around. Losing to Chuck but killing the guy who beat Chuck lol.
