How come Tito fought someone 3x smaller than him?

[blkdynamite]

I would pick every one of UFC's top 10 MWs over Tito. I might even take their top 15 over Tito.

I'm pretty Ryan Bader and Forrest Griffin would stomp most of the 185 lbs on size alone.

I honestly hope that nobody shitting on this match up is a "Pride will never die" type fan.

Pretty much this and Bellator was willing to book it and charge money for it.

They were hoping that a freak-show fight featuring a smaller Russian fighter would invoke memories of Fedor and Pride and that all those "Pride was better" fans would buy the PPV.

Shlemenko called him out on twitter and Tito said "lol OK."

And that's that.

End of the story TS. Let Tito's big head alone.

how in the hell does 15-25 lbs difference = 3x smaller than him? You people are ridiculous haters on these boards.

is point of rhetoric bro

I would pick every one of UFC's top 10 MWs over Tito. I might even take their top 15 over Tito.

I'd take every UFC top 15 MW over Tito now. I still shake my head at people actually saying that Shlemenko is a top 10 middleweight too.

Shlemenko called him out on twitter and Tito said "lol OK."

And that's that.

exactly, the guy called Tito out, he could have weighed 205 at weigh in's
so why the hate for tito

 

[Ryan Phillipe]

The same reason Fedor fought Hendo and Lindland.

Thank god some of you newjack fans weren't around back when Tito was in his prime. You would have never let him enjoy his Kondo win.
