Former champ Tito Ortiz to face old foe in final UFC fight

By on March 20, 2012

Tito Ortiz announced via twitter moments ago that his final fight with the UFC (and possibly final every fight) will take place on July 7th at UFC 148 against Forrest Griffin.

“July 7th Vegas MGM #ufc148 its on!!!! @ufc @forrestgriffin” – @titoortiz

These two are no strangers to each other, having gone 6 rounds without a finish against one another over 2 fights.

Only split decisions could separate the pair on both occasions, with Tito taking the first meeting and Forrest the second.

The first battle between the two UFC legends earned Fight of the Year honours in 2006
