The card for UFC 3 SUCKS!
Obviously there is still a large amount of bad blood between Dana and Tito. Although I initially spoke strongly against Tito for flaking out on the boxing match (which still pisses me off), tonight's special was obviously an intentional slam against Tito. I viewed it as nothing more than anti-Tito propaganda, which softened my initial view about Tito.
With the rift being widened between the Dana and Tito, is this the beginning of the end for Tito in the UFC? Even though Pride is now owned by the UFC, EliteXC would most likely pay a pretty penny to get ahold of a fighter and a personality of Tito's caliber.
What do you think? Will the rift be mended? Will Tito stay in the UFC? Or is this ALL a publicity stunt to bolster the notariety of Dana, the UFC, and more infamy for Tito?

Damn, Damn, Damnit! Sorry, I scanned the first seven or eight threads and didn't see anything similar. I totally missed it. I'm slacking, this is my second dup ever... albeit both were this week.
Then again... if I lived on the east coast, my post would have been first.

Thanks Vegas mma, I appreciate it.
Since this is already a duplicate thread, can the mods change the title to something totally original like "The Card For UFC (insert # here) Sucks"?

After what Dana went through. training and everything, I know I would be steqaming mad if someone backed out like Tito did!
As a side note the show was good to illustrate how busy Dana White really is as Prez of the UFC!
P.S.--Heatwaves I see the duplicate thread police are after you! LOL

yeah that whole thing is some BS have to agree im very dissapointed in tito, BUT I still think Tito is a great guy and an excellent fighter.. he's one of the many big faces of the UFC and I want him to stay there. Also He claimed after the l second loss to chuck "I'm gonna be in this sport for a very long time".. so I dunnno.

I'm hoping the "UFC XX Card Sucks" threads are a thing of the past. Now that the UFC has more talent and crossovers with Pride, there's no reason for weak cards.
BTW, a little technical point you may not have picked up. It is possible to change a thread title. You click on EDIT, then when the edit screen comes up, click on GO ADVANCED.

i don't know why dana would be pissed, he got his fat ass in shape.
he went from "6months pregnant" to 187 pounds.
that sounds like a well spent 6 months.

Well, as Goldberg would say, he's a solid striker who loves to bang.

"..and he is ready to make an impact in his Octagon(TM) debut. (cut to video).. and here's the tale of the tape.. brought to you by nobody, yes nobody, because we are still a bloodsport! *cue Jim Brown being asked to make a prediction in which he says something to the like of 'I wouldnt wanna be in the cage with either of these fellows'"
There ya go.. Goldie+Brown.. what a team that woulda been.

This may be the first time I've seen you cautiously optimistic. I only give it two weeks before another "this card sucks" thread appears.

Tito is too big of a draw. No. Even with all the big names out there? And some of the fighters who train with him/under him?
Its not like Tito is some guy like Elvis Sinosic or Sobral who continually loses and just looks bad each UFC event.
Tito will be back. He's not going anywhere.
