Those responses are surprisingly articulate for Tito Ortiz.
Also, that interview is so old, they still refer to MMA as No Holds Barred.
Yes in 2001, Titos scull had not yet cracked.

Tito said tamura, I think he's talking about kiyoshi tamura?
2001 Tito would've stomped Rickson
he also beat up a 100 lb porn starRickson is like 60. Tito wants to fight him?
You are a most excellnt person. I got a good laugh outta thatSaku was better than him at that time. That said this was clearly an interview to the Japanese media and it reads like Tito is kowtowing to win favor and possibly be offered a big contract.
Clearly he answered in English, translated to Japanese, and the. Translated back into English, because that’s not how he (or any English speaker) speaks.
Q: Do you like MMA competition?
Tito real answer: Sure. I love competing. I’d love to come to Japan and challenge great fighters in Pride.
Tito translated for interview: Indeed, my soul aches and burns in reverence to the Japanese people. I would like to test my super fighter powers against the warrior spirit that smoulders in the hearts of Pride’s fighters!!

Lol. his wrestling was very overrated. Imo.In spring of 2000, I read an interview of his where he said he wasn't interested in Sakuraba because he could see himself out wrestle and out strike the Japanese. He said the real challenge would be (renzo) Gracie.
