three60roundhouse Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 Tito shouldn't have to "make a persona"...this isn't pro wrestling. I think he's a great fighter, but not one of the best (I agree with Saku and Frank Shamrock as two of the best fighters.) I like Pride fighting better than UFC, though. The US has tried to MAKE UFC=boxing by not allowing long [boring] grappling matches. I love watching technical fights on the ground, I guess that's from my BJJ. Pride is where all the big money is, and that's where all the big fighters will go. 1st dan Tae Kwon DoYellow Belt Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu16 Years OldGirls kick butt!

three60roundhouse Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 I forgot Minotauro...he is also one of the Elite. A young fighter who armbarred Bob Sapp....that's like armbarring a tree trunk! 1st dan Tae Kwon DoYellow Belt Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu16 Years OldGirls kick butt!

kenpo4life Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 I cant believe nobody put Bustamonte as one of all time best. Crazy subs, good chin, seasoned, good cardio, he is top in my book. If my survival means your total destruction, then so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadpoet Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 i just want to say that i'm not a martial artist, i am a fighter though. and watching tito ortiz is breathtaking, his movement and concentration is amazing. i've seen every fight tito's been in and his loss to frank shamrock was silly. tito got caught up in an armbar or a legbar, i can't remember exactly but if you watch you'll see the dissapointment in his eyes. the ufc is getting rediculous but that's a different topic. i believe whole heartedly that tito is a champion, he has the heart and the determination to beat anyone, and i'll never count out frank although i gaurauntee that if they ever face eachother again... the outcome will be much much different, tito doesn't make the same mistake twice, he never has, he never will. some are born with it, it's a disease of aggression, although too many believe it's of evil nature. i was born through it and it's about respect and honor.

jiu-jitsu fighter Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 tito deserves what he has worked for, thats the bottom line, he trains very hard, in boxing, kick boxing, bjj, and wrestling and he is a skilled fighter, congratulations to him, he is one of the best i hope he beats the **** out of phil baroni i hate that guy "When we go to the ground,you are in my world, the ground is the ocean, I am the shark,and most people don't even know how to swim" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
