VIDEO | Tito Ortiz Still Pushing For Cyborg vs. Rousey At 140 Pounds | UFC NEWS

“Let’s do a rematch and have a chance of her cutting to 135-pounds, possibly, if it’s possible she can do it. It’s just really tough, like I said. Just being with Cyborg and wrestling her myself, she’s a big girl. To make it down to 135-pounds, it would be kind of health threatening, I think. But at the same time, I would love for the fight to happen. Let’s meet in the middle.

“For a woman to cut that much weight… You gotta understand, she’s small. She’s cutting from 170 down trying to make 135, that’s a big, big, big, big cut. That’s a lot for a woman to cut. And it’s just health reasons when it comes down to it. We want to see an exciting fight. Do it at 140-pounds, I think that would make the best difference.

“I support Ronda Rousey. I hope she does well and I hope she wins. I think the biggest fight in women’s mixed martial arts is Cyborg vs. Ronda Rousey. At the same time, I wish Ronda can win the fight and just keep building for this big fight to happen.”

  1. cesar says:

    this is hilarious that hes going to say shes dominant and deserves to have mroe tehn 1 weight class because of that when this bitch was juicing the whole time. Maybe she could make the weight if she stopped juicing and worked out. i think if she wants to fight it should be at 135 juice head could lose another 5 pounds

  2. danielrchargers says:

    Tito lookin like Seth Rogen,…..

  3. stevo the great says:

    Tito made all the excuses in his career…..now he is making up excuses for someone else career. Please save the BS Tito….she was juicing from the beginning that’s why she is more of a man than you.

  4. dave says:

    Really there should be two belts in every weight class, one for juicers and one for people who don’t cheat. But they shouldn’t be fighting each other.

  5. The Way Of The Dutchman says:

    The weightclass is 135. Can’t make weight? Tough shit!
