Ariel Helwani: The big rumor right now is that Tito Ortiz may be headed back to the UFC. Is that a loss you would like to avenge at this point in your career?
Forrest Griffin: Yeah, I think me and Tito would be a good fight. I think it would be a good seller. I know I want to fight him; I’m pretty sure he wants to fight me. So I think there’d be two guys with pretty decent names that could maybe put some a**es in seats.
Considering their history, would you be surprised if Dana White actually brought Ortiz back to the UFC?
No. You’ve got to think, those guys, they have a history together, if you think about it. At one point, Dana managed Tito. They have a history. They were friends, and they had a falling out, but there was initially a friendship there, you know.
Speaking of Dana White, he recently said that he will make a huge announcement later this week. Care to spill the beans?
Um, this is the first I’ve heard of a huge announcement. But I’ll tell you what it is: from now on we’re going to fight without gloves. No more gloves. Done away with.
I like it. Back to how it all started.
Yeah, no more gloves.
Make every story count.
