Ortiz vs. Jardine

Hostage · 09-27-2007, 01:05 PM

Styles make fights and this is a HORRIBLE fight for Keith Jardine.

Jardine can throw kicks all he wants to until Tito grabs a hold and takes his ass down. Then how will Keith fair when he's on his back with Ortiz firing away?

I think the winner of Rashad/Tito should fight Jardine for the title shot. I don't think Houston Alexander is in title contention yet....and I think Forrest needs one more win until he's in the title hunt.

This would make sense and would be interesting to see.

I've always wanted to see Ortiz/Rampage....and I think it would be alot closer than some people think.

I'd pick Jardine.. Tito has the same problems as chuck..

Ortiz' wrestling has been pretty inconsistent as of late. I think he did a great job against Rashad, but he had major problems taking Forrest down in the later rounds and, against Chuck, he kept shooting from way too far out, and rarely got close to taking Chuck down.

If the Ortiz that fought Rashad, Wandy, or Matyushenko fought Jardine, then I agree that Jardine would get taken down and it would be a long night for him. But if the Ortiz that fought Chuck and Griffin showed up, then Jardine would take it.

I think this would be good - scrap the stupid Rashad rematch, no one cares.

If Tito wins I'd like to see him face Rampage. I know he probably doesn't deserve it based upon his recent peformances, but I think it would be great because they are both legends and have done a lot for the sport.

I agree with the TS. Styles make fights, and I have to believe that Ortiz would work Keith badly.

Jardine appears to be far too easy to take down, and you KNOW that Tito will be aiming to put him on his back rather than to stand and trade with him. That herky-jerky style got him past a gunshy Liddell, that refused to work the matt. Tito would not have that problem.

Ortiz would likely work Rampage as well, but that fight won't happen, for obvious reasons.

I agree with your breakdown of Ortiz/Jardine, I think Tito would most likely sometime get Jardine down and GnP him. BUT Tito would in now way work Rampage. It could be a good fight but I feel Rampage would work Tito pretty much everywhere.

I´m a die hard Tito fan, but even I am nervous for him right now. I think Jardines stand up could spell some trouble for Tito. He needs to seriously increase his Muay Thai- people are figuring Tito out, it

I pick Ortiz.

Tito via really boring decision.
