Tito v. Hamill @ 121

Muay was right. Dana has confirmed the fight...

While Hamill's striking has improved drastically, I still think overall Ortiz should have a slight advantage. But this fight ultimately boils down to takedown defense going both ways. Whoever is on their back more loses this bout.

And win or lose Tito's next fight caps a trilogy? He wins he faces Forrest... He loses he faces Chuck in a loser leaves MMA fight?

please god let Hamill win

I'll take Tito

Seems a little like the Sanchez/Thiago fight in that the loser is real low after wards.

Tough to pick. I think Tito is gonna be not that great all around given surgery, age, distractions, normal excuses, whatever. In today's game at the UFC level he is more average. Hamill is a guy who hasn't seemed to get a lot better. He seems streaky and inconsistent. Could end up being a pretty even fight.

I may already have av/sig bets on this card due to the Brock-Cain fight but if you'd want to put it off like a week then sure

The rumored card for 121 now includes:

Brock Lesnar vs. Cain Velasquez

Jake Shields vs. Martin Kampmann

Tito Ortiz vs. Matt Hamill

Diego Sanchez vs. Paulo Thiago

Brendan Schaub vs. Gabriel Gonzaga

Court McGee vs. Ryan Jensen

Chris Camozzi vs. Dongi Yang

Sam Stout vs. Paul Taylor

Patrick Cote vs. Tom Lawlor

Okay, I guess I'll buy it.

I'm actually taking Tito here.

Hamill is going to beat him at his own game even if he's not as good because he wants it more. He doesn't quit and has heart.

Ill take Tito,this will be one to watch on ppv for sure.

daaaaaaahhhh all these Tito picks

FUCK

beer chuggin time/ cursing Tito time


1 good thing about Tito fights, I get too lead the "Fuck Tito" chant at the bar

Hamill quit like a mother fucker against Bones and Rich was able to break him as well. Don't buy the "never quit" attitude of Hamill as any better than any other fight.

If Tito has anything left in the tank he'll grind out a win here. Not really thrilled about the fight but I suppose Hamill has earned a big fight.

I agree with Ali. If Tito does have one last hoorah left in him to be relevant again then he should win this fight easy.

I think Matt Hamill is going to kick his ass. He is a talented fighter, even with the ass kicking he to from Jones. Tito? He is fucking old, broke down, and has forgotten how to punch.

Hamill was getting beat by Keith Jardine before the point deduction, but then again Techno Viking is a versatile striker Tito's stand up was pretty poor against Forrest.

Tito has never had any stand up at all though. I think Wolf is right when he said whoever is on there back the least wins the fight. My heart tells me Tito but my Brain tells me Tito is shot and Hamill beats him down.

Hamill got owned by Jones, I don't think any quit was involved.

Yeah he didnt have time to quit he got crushed!!!

Rich Frankin has a way of making even the toughest of Fighters looking like they've quit. Did ya'll see the way Dan Henderson looked at the end of their fight? Dude looked like he just got put through the ringer something awful and those body kicks is what did it. Rich pushes the pace and wears motherfuckers out. Hamill has almost no quit in him. How did he quit against Bones? He got launched which dislocated his shoulder and then almost had his skull caved in by those elbows before he had time to even tap out.
