The former UFC Heavyweight Champion Tito Ortiz said that it is not going to be a one-fight show for him as he has signed a three fight, two-year deal with Combate Sports. The deal will allow him to take fights once he is done with Alberto Del Rio. He is expecting to face Cain Velasquez after his upcoming fight on December 7. Ortiz recently revealed that former UFC Heavyweight Cain Velasquez is also in the mix and he is expected to fight the winner of Tito Ortiz vs Alberto Del Rio.
Ortiz said that Combate Sport’s Campbell McLaren has spoken with Cain Velasquez and the former UFC Heavyweight Champion is apparently interested in facing the winner of Ortiz vs El Patron.
