Everyone went crazy!  Tito proved that night he is still relevant and all us old school fans went nuts... like him or not.

I was really happy for Tito when he beat Bader. The reactions from Dana and Liddell made it even greater:


Was never a huge Tito fan but always liked watching him fight. If you asked me years ago, I would have never thought that after 10 years of always wanting him to lose, that the last few years I would find myself cheering for him. Here's to one last time seeing him in the cage and I hope he goes out with a big win tonight.

Chuck in that video... he always has some strange reactions.







EDIT: I'm not picking on Chuck, I hope this isn't a medical problem of some kind?

I had Griffin by dec and Changed it to Tito BY TKO in rd 2, I say Tito wins and he retires Griffin with a mean OldstyleTito GNP, he cries in the end and says goodbye to his fans.

WAAAR TITO!

The Greatest GNPder in MMA!!

Tito can be an emotional guy... he may shed a tear.  I hope after the fight... that Forrest does something for Tito like Rich did for Wandy in Brazil.

Jay Glazer, sitting next to Chuck in that vid, looks like he is PISSED when Bader taps he shouts "****" and turns his head. Maybe he had some $$$ on Bader?

He had a pretty intense look in his face when Tito dropped Bader.

Personally, I would have put $10 on Tito. The lines were ridiculous and someone could have made serious cash on him.

@Kalibo your right I watched it again...

@OldNick  The lines opened at -500 Bader +300 Tito I don't know what they moved to, but man are you right... Bader at -500 I wouldn't take even if he was fighting Tank Abbott.
