EliteXC wants to 'reincarnate' Ortiz

Posted: Saturday May 17, 2008 09:09AM ET

EliteXC President Gary Shaw made it clear Thursday that he would like to bring former UFC light-heavyweight champion Tito Ortiz into EliteXC. "I think I can reincarnate Ortiz," said Shaw. "He is a talented fighter and has all the mechanisms that you need to make someone a superstar." Ortiz was the face of the UFC when Zuffa took over the company in 2001. But Ortiz's stock has fallen due to a pair of losses to Chuck Liddell. A draw against the emerging Rashad Evans last July didn't help Ortiz's cause either.

somebody needs to bring him back from the dead. Last 7 or 8 fights have been pretty un-impressive. He was a good fighter before the fighters started becoming more well rounded and more able to contend with a wrestler who's 1 trick pony is ground a pound. He should just stay home and make "home movies" with his wife
