PrintSports Illustrated's Josh Gross spoke with the former UFC light heavyweight champion via text message to debunk the report that he was injured and out of his fight with Chuck Liddell. This was Ortiz's response to him still fighting Liddell:
"Yes, I am," Ortiz told SI.com via text message late Wednesday. "Unless Chuck gets hurt."
He also denies the rumors that he did not complete the taping for the 11th season of The Ultimate Fighter in which he was a coach. When asked if his appearance was cut short on this season, Ortiz replied:
"Nope,"
So is this a vintage Tito Ortiz doing whatever it takes to keep his name out there, or are all the rumors about his injuries false?

Zuffa created guaranteed ratings for free,by just puting out some rumors to the press.Whether or not Tito is injured,people are going to tune in like never before just to see if all this BS is true or not.
And it didn’t cost Zuffa one penny to create all this buzz.Brilliant.

They were also able to steal the buzz from Strikeforces card,by just hinting at putting on a card.That's some grown ass mind games right there.

Tito Ortiz
Creating Drama whenever possiable. Honestly I really don’t care about this fight and all this crap leading up to the fight makes me care even less
I have to admit
Tito is a master at keeping his name in the news even though he’s been irrelevant as a fighter for half a decade
