He doesn't have what it takes to rule the UFC any longer. And with the rapid rise in popularity of Strikeforce, by the end of the year, the organization could be giving the UFC a run for their money. Scott Coker is that brilliant and markets the organization well. Tito does however have what it takes to rule Strikeforce for a few years. Babalu is the only legitimate threat for Tito at LHW in the organization, and I see Tito making Renato look awfully bad.

Which is why he most likely won't sign a contract till at least June which isn't a big deal since he said he won't be able to compete until August. Oh and Babalu wouldn't "destroy" Ortiz or Feijao for that matter. The light heavyweight division in Strikeforce is a lot better than you think if you think. He had his hands full with Bobby Southworth until it was stopped for a cut. Not to mention he was TKO'd by Jason Lambert in the UFC and if Lambert can pound him out then imagine what Tito would do to him with his ground n pound.

I was really looking forward to seeing Babalu again also. Ortiz won't replace him, I think he's under contract with the UFC until July and he just recently said it would be another six months before he was ready.

I hope Ortiz comes back and faces Bablu. Bablu would tear his ass up. Since his departure from the ufc Bablu has been on a roll. I hope to see him defend his belt soon.

I was really looking forward to that fight on the card, and the card as a whole was shaping out to be pretty good. Unless they get a surprise opponent to replace Babalu that is going to hurt this card. That sucks!
