After Tito Ortiz’s win at UFC 132, there has been plenty of speculation on his next opponent. Earlier this week, Cagewriter mentioned the possibilities of Chuck Liddell, Fedor Emelianenko, Forrest Griffin, Rich Franklin and Dan Henderson, but another athlete has thrown his name into the ring.

Locked out Bengals receiver Chad Ochocinco announced via twitter he wants to give Ortiz a fight.

@SugaRashadEvans Rashad I’m sure you know @titoortiz Just letting you know I’m looking to beat him to a pulp on national tv any day now.

Ortiz isn’t the first guy Ochocinco has gone after. He’s called out UFC middleweight champ Anderson Silva in the past, and has asked UFC president Dana White for a spot in the Octagon. NFL collective bargaining agreement negotiations appear to be headed in the right direction, so hopefully, Ochocinco will have to worry about football soon.
