Tito Ortiz
 Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) 51 - Super Saturday $14.98 To say the least, the MMA world was shocked and deeply saddened to hear of the loss of former UFC Middleweight Champion, Evan Tanner. And to say the least, UFC 51 was Evan Tanner's night! And in the beginning of the show, a show where there are two title fights, it just happens to be HIS fight that doesn't get a gladiator introduction! WHY? In shows where there have been two or more big fights, they've had three gladiator introductions. One of two co-main events, he's taking on David Terrell. David Terrell made his UFC debut in UFC 49, and he didn't just take out, he knocked out Matt "The Law" Lindland in UNDER 25 seconds. Evan Tanner? He's just been around, and he's fought the best in the business. He deserved this shot. Both of these guys wanted the vacant Middleweight belt. With Frank Mir injured, there was an interim Heavyweight title on the line. And to fight for it was the beginning of a trilogy that began that will long be remembered! Tim Sylvia taking on Andrei Arlovski was a big deal! Tim's prediction was simple, "I'm gonna knock his ass out." To which Arlovski would simply reply, "Tim, good luck." The main event of this proved to be interesting. Tito Ortiz taking on Vitor Belfort, two former UFC champions. Which one would prevail and continue with a career in the UFC? Tito's thoughts were which Vitor would show up to fight. Vitor simply said that Tito has a big mouth, and his job is to fight, not to talk. Two of those fights were featured on the gladiator introductions, and in the end, it should've been all three! But altogether there are 9 fights, and I didn't think any of them were boring. I'll list those fights below. Nick Diaz vs. Drew Fickett: This is Fickett's UFC debut, hoping he can shut down the cocky Diaz. This fight ends in the first round. Chris Lytle vs. Karo Parisyan: Two veterans who like to really bring it! It goes to a unanimous decision! David Louiseau vs. Gideon Ray: A seasoned striker with some razor sharp elbows welcomes a newcomer! That ends due to cuts at the end of the first round. James Irvin vs. Mike Kyle: Newcomer, undefeated Irvin thinks that Kyle's a prick! That's what he said in his pre-fight interview. And this ends with a KO in the first round. Paul Buentello vs. Justin Eilers: Eilers impressed in his UFC debut, but what about this Buentello guy? After a first round KO, the message is delivered, "Don't fear me, fear the consequences!" Evan Tanner vs. David Terrell: When we say that this is Evan Tanner's night, the winner is probably obvious. Evan Tanner will be missed by many fans. Tim Sylvia vs. Andrei Arlovski: The first of three fights between these two warriors ends in less than a minute! Phil Baroni vs. Pete Sell: The New York Bad Ass doesn't like Serra's golden boy. This is somewhat of a surprise ending near the end of the 3rd round. Tito Ortiz vs. Vitor Belfort: A tough fought split decision, they were both there to fight. In the end, two champions were crowned. Evan Tanner will always be remembered on the night of UFC 51, Super Saturday!!!
