Tito Ortiz: “My goal is to get a world title around my waist again. Randy Couture can do it at 40, I can do it at 35”

Former UFC light heavyweight champion, Tito Ortiz has made clear his goal heading into his UFC 133 clash with Rashad Evans early next month in Philadelphia, explaining if the great Randy Couture can capture the title at the age of 40 then he can certainly do it at 35.
Speaking via UFC.com, Ortiz said:

“What motivates me now is to show that I can come back, show my heart and I’m able to persevere through anything and get a world title. My goal is to get a world title around my waist again. Randy Couture can do it at 40, I can do it at 35.”

Ortiz is coming off a surprising first round submission win over “Ultimate Fighter” season eight winner, Ryan Bader at UFC 132 early on in July, a win that prevented him being axed from the Las Vegas based promotion’s roster. Despite winning two rounds last time out against Evans the fight ended a draw after he repeatedly grabbed the cage.
