First, The People’s Champ talks through his fight at UFC 51 where he faced Vitor Belfort. “This was one of the most memorable fights for me. Everything was on the line. I knew I had to push the pressure as much as possible and wait for him to make a small mistake.”
Then, Ortiz watches his career-reviving battle against Ryan Bader at UFC 132. “One of my mottos is: prepare for the worst and the best will happen. Bader looked like a feared animal in the cage with a lion and he was going to get eaten at this time. Everything was on the line, my contract, my career, my legacy, my name.” Watch a clip from the UFC TONIGHT SPECIAL EDITION: TITO ORTIZ FIGHTER’S CUT:
