Tito is a 5 time champion. He beat prides Golden boy V.Silva and scored a knock down in the fight. Tito went the distance with Couture with no damage. When he fought Liddell he lost that fight before it even started because Chuck had his head fucked up but even in this fight he got a finger in the eye that contributed to the Tko. Tito has beaten Belfort,Silva, Vladdy, Kondo, Shamrock, Tanner, and Mezger and is one of The biggest Names in the U.S. show the man some respect
peace

Tito has always shown respect to his opponents at the appropriate time... Hyping a fight up with comments is just that, hyping a fight.
Really, a fighter has to be some piece of work for me to not like him (or a worker)... Why? 'Cos I'm not going to meet him be friends with him etc, just fight, and fight honourably is all I want.
Fighters who want to handpick their opponents, make excuses for not fighting tough opponents, ask for ridiculous amounts of money, etc. will get shit from a lot of fight fans. Fortunately most fighters arent like Tito (actually Rickson is the better example) or big fights would be few and far between.
love em or hate em, tito have made his mark.
ttt for tito
Tito shows disrespect to everyone else. Why the hell should anyone give him respect? If you are willing to dish out shit talking, then he should expect to receive. I am a Tito fan nonetheless.
NOBODY has questioned Tito Ortiz's skills the dude has mad skillz
He's just a Jackass sometimes.
Plus he ducked Chuck for over a year and now he wants a ungodly amount of $ to fight that the champion and #1 contender isn't even making.
Fans lose respect with stuff like that
Fuck the haters. Tito fan thick and thin.

TTT
I give him 100% respect as a fighter. I just dont really like his personal fighting style.
Come on Keoni, You know you would let Tito fuck your wife.
Tito is a really cool guy. A lot of the way he acts is just for the cameras to get butts on seats and he is good at it, he will be back on top one day (think about it) and all the guys who hate on him will be back to how it was in 02 when every one loved him this damm place is fickle.
tito who?
I'm still a big fan.
Ditto what Lord Humoungous said.
"Plus he ducked Chuck for over a year and now he wants a ungodly amount of $ to fight that the champion and #1 contender isn't even making. Fans lose respect with stuff like that"
Amen brother!
He talks shit and he's one of the most boring fighters around...
I've always been and always will be a Tito fan.
"Tito has always shown respect to his opponents at the appropriate time..."
Like when they're unconscious and he's digging their graves and wearing some insulting t-shirt?
Tito shows respect to the guys who beat him, but mostly he's been an ass.
However, he's a good fighter.
"Tito shows respect to the guys who beat him, but mostly he's been an ass."
He showed Vitor respect. I'm not even sure why Tito's attitude is still a subject here. He behaves very differently than 2 years ago.
Tito stood with Chuck which has to be admired.
