UFC President Dana White took advantage of some questions about the Ultimate women's division to answer Tito Ortiz, with whom he has a troubled relationship and who currently manages the Brazilian woman's career Chris Cyborg. Tito said in a recent interview that the women's bantamweight belt holder, Ronda Rousey (photo), I wouldn’t have proven anything in MMA. As soon as the subject came up, White did not hesitate, was blunt in his words and vehemently defended Rousey.
"Tito Ortiz said something stupid the other day, that Ronda Rousey has not yet been proven. What the hell… Tito was a wrestler in college. Ronda Rousey He was a judo medalist at the Olympics! […] What are you talking about, Tito? She devastates you when talking about achievements at the same point in your career. It buries you, burns you, it's in another universe. I understand, he is a businessman now and has to say some nonsense. But, Tito, do your homework,” she declared.
Ronda Rousey will make her Ultimate debut on February 23, in the main fight of UFC 157. She will face Liz Carmouche, putting the women's bantamweight belt up for grabs. The Brazilian Lyoto Machida is also on the event card, which will be held in Anaheim, California (USA). The opponent of the former light heavyweight champion will be the North American Dan Henderson.
