Tito Ortiz Close To Signing With Strikeforce?

Yea, I know it's Tito Ortiz talking once again and I've about to the point where I just dismiss whatever he says. In the video above, he discusses Strikeforce, starting his own fighting promotion that would be affiliated with Strikeforce, the usual integrity business man, UFC/Dana White bashing. He also mentions a couple of up and comers that he would like to have join his camp. The one interesting fight at Strikeforce for Tito would be Babalu Sobral, as they have a little rivalry going. It's actually one fight that I can see Tito winning against a credible top ten fighter. However, that fight may disappear if Babalu is unable to get past Gegard Mousasi in his next match up at Affliction 3.

I take the " I’ll believe it when I see it" approach when it comes to things Tito says nowadays.

...some call me "el mexicutioner"...

Ortiz’ last chance to be relevant.

Bloody hell.

I won’t finalize my Affliction 3 picks for quite awhile but damned if I’m not tempted to go with Renato. I’ve just got a feeling about this one. We’ll see. Anyway, Tito had better make some kind of move quickly before absolutely no one cares.
