3. Tito Ortiz 2015
Ortiz and the UFC have had a pretty strained relationship over the years. Ortiz was the poster-child for the organization during some pretty lean years for the UFC, and the main star of the organization when Zuffa purchased the company. Since then things have soured considerably between the two sides.
Ortiz doesn’t hesitate to take shots at Dana White and the UFC whenever he can. His hatred for Dana knows no boundaries, with him even lobbying for the two of them to fight in his return to the company.
In 2015 Ortiz made comments about how the UFC was just like the Roman empire, and would crumble from the inside.
“You just see the same stuff. It’s cookie cutter. The same stuff over and over. Now that Reebok has been a part of their sponsorship, it’s cookie cutter. Bellator has taken a step forward in giving the fans what they want to see”- Ortiz stated to media.
Unlike the Roman empire, the UFC just sold for $4 billion.
