UFC Fight Night 24: Ortiz vs. Nogueira Is Official

According to UFC.com:

Dana White – “This is a must-win fight for Tito Ortiz. This is the biggest fight of his career. ‘Lil Nog’ is ranked in the top 10 in the world and a win puts Tito back in the mix.”

Tito Ortiz – “I’m ready to get back in there and kick some ass. ‘Lil Nog’ is one of the best fighters in the world. He’s dangerous on the feet and on the ground; that’s why you won’t hear me talking any smack. I have a lot of respect for him and I can’t wait to get back in there and give the fans in Seattle a great show.”

Antonio Rogerio Nogueira – “Tito Ortiz is a former champion and I’m excited to get the chance to fight him in the main event in Seattle. I’m training hard and expect a difficult fight. Tito’s ground and pound is really good and he is a talented athlete. This should be a great fight for the fans.”
