EliteXC: 'We'd love to have Tito Ortiz'
by Brian Knapp - The Fight Network, 6/14/08
EliteXC will vie for the services of former UFC light heavyweight champion Tito Ortiz, one of the mixed martial arts world's most polarizing figures.
The 33-year-old Ortiz (15-6-1) completed his latest contract with the UFC in May, as he dropped a unanimous decision to the unbeaten Lyoto Machida at UFC 84. His long-running public war of words with UFC president Dana White drove a wedge between himself and the promotion, and by the end of the Machida fight, both sides seemed content to separate. <<Full Story>>

Brett Rogers Interview: When talent meets hard work
by Robert Rousseau - MMAFighting.com, 6/14/08
There aren’t a lot of 6-foot-5, 265 pound people on the planet. Brett “The Grimm” Rogers, currently of Team Bison in Minnesota, is one of them. There also aren’t many 7-0 MMA fighters of that size.
