Tito announced that he is stepping down as Cris Cyborg's manager. He stated that he could take the abuse from Dana White regarding him but he could not take Dana White talking bad about Cyborg.

Good idea that Tito stepped down? What do you think?

I don't think Dana gives a shit, he will never let Cyborg destroy Rousey. $$$$$$$$

BIG Announcement From Tito Ortiz on “Inside MMA”

Citing his contentious relationship with UFC President Dana White as the reason Cris Cyborg was not signed to the UFC, Tito Ortiz has chosen to step away from the fighter he believes to be the “best female fighter on the planet.” Here is the official statement from Ortiz made on “Inside MMA:”

“I can live with Dana not liking me but what I can’t live with is Dana using me to hurt someone else. I’ve taken abuse and maybe I deserved some of it but Cris is a beautiful person and great athlete and doesn’t deserve to be insulted like this.

I don’t understand how Dana lets his hatred towards me hurt the UFC and the fans by not making this fight.

He accuses her of still using banned substances and say that she isn’t worthy of fighting Ronda yet a year ago he personally called me to make the fight happen.

I never said she would die if she made 135- we just repeated what the Dr said that Cris shouldn’t make a career at 135- we offered a 3 fight deal they said no 7 fights or no deal.

Regardless – I won’t stand in the way from the fans getting a fight they want and I won’t hold Cris Back. So I’m stepping down as Cris’ manager

Now he can’t hold that against her-

I’m also tired of Dana accusing Cris of using banned substances. I challenge you to put up or shut up- Test her or stop lying about her- Cris is a beautiful woman inside and out- don’t insult her on her looks- she may be tough as nails but she still has feelings.

I know people are going to say there goes Tito making this about him again- but it’s not -it’s about Cris Cyborg- the baddest woman on the earth – soon to be multi-sport world champion.”

I agree 100% ^^^^

Dana needs to stop trying to build Rousey. He knows if the fight between Rousey and Cyborg were to ever happen, Rousey would look like a mess after. It wouldn't be a fight.

It would end easily in the first round. Cyborg would be the face of WMMA in the UFC. Dana hates the thought of it. This fight will never happen. But would be fantastic if it did.
