The UFC veteran fighter Tito Ortiz (15-8) is scheduled to compete against the Brazilian Minotouro Antonio Rogerio Nogueira (19-4) at UFC Fight Night that is set to hold in Seattle, Washington. Ortiz coming back after 3 consecutive losses, with Matt Hamill as the latest at UFC 121, is on for a Light Heavyweight stint with the Jiu Jitsu black belter Nogueira. President Dana White once mentioned that Tito might be released from the UFC if he doesn't succeed and imprints his fourth lost though none attests that statement to be accurate still. However, None can fail to appreciate Tito as a UFC fighter being a long time Light Heavyweight Champion for 3 years in his era. He is a natural slugger beating guys like Wanderlei Silva, Ken Shamrock, Vitor Belfort and a lot more. He may have lost his recent 3 in a row fights and it was a supreme upset for him but surely he is not going to let this fight take him out of the octagon. Rogerio Nogueira on the other hand is no unfussy. A win over this brawler is not a clear-cut fact. Though he has just debuted 2 years ago at UFC 106 last 2009, this Brazilian fighter has tackled a lot of names during his PRIDE days and is ready to punish whoever gets in his way. His first UFC lost was against the undefeated Light Heavyweight fighter and the Ultimate Fighter season 8 finale champion Ryan Bader who is set to face Jon Jones for the main card of UFC 126 this coming February 5. It is quite tough to judge this fight but Tito definitely will never let Dana untie his strings and let him drop off yet Nogueira alternatively, is absolutely thirsty for this fight and will certainly take Ortiz down and broom him off.
Dan Hardy and Anthony Johnson is also set to fight at that event for a Welterweight bout along with Amir Sadollah and Duane Ludwig. See other fights for this event.
