Excuse my ignorance but it keeps getting referred to, why the animosity between them? IrishDawg , Nov 15, Well, White always has a 'beef' with the guys who make it to the point they are recognised outside of the UFC - the crossover, famous guys like Couture and Ortiz won't be bullied and put their lives on the line for the monkeyfeed most MMA fighters do.

Polymath , Nov 15, Dana and his ego. Dana wanted Tito to swallow but he spit. Dana was major pissed off. Ben Kiely.

Young girl who got Ronaldo's shirt after Portugal game receives fine. I'm up for that! Tyson Fury advised to retire from boxing. Bonnar brings back Inter-divisional trials in Tipperary as club players given every chance. I'm sitting in my office every day going 'Oh my god. It's f--king two o'clock. This guy's going to be here in an hour.

My nose got busted up. I got the s--t kicked out of me getting ready for that thing. In addition to the physical toll it took on him, White believes the commission getting involved, which happened as a consequence of them hearing about the event and asking White and Ortiz to answer questions, irreparably harmed his relationship with them.

They licensed me. I went through all the medical testing, everything, and then Tito ends up bailing on that thing the day of the weigh-ins.

White notes he's an executive, not a fighter, but believes Ortiz's no-show was done specifically to avoid a beating he knew would've come his way.

It could all be for the better that it didn't happen. And if White had his way, none of it ever would. In the end, the UFC President isn't sure there's anything positive that ever came out of it. If I knew Tito was going to bail out of the thing, I would've never done it.
