Reports yesterday stated that Tito Ortiz was hours away from signing a ground breaking deal were obviously a little off the mark. The news had fight fans from around the globe tuning in to hear the news but at a news conference in Las Vegas, the Huntington BadBoy was a no show.
A Legal counsel for Affliction Entertainment said Wednesday that Ortiz’s signing was only a “rumor,” and that when he was released from his contractual obligations, the promotion would be interested in signing him.
“Don Trump Jr., myself and Tito engaged in a conversation,” said Michael Cohen, executive vice president of The Trump Organization and special counsel to Donald Trump, who started a business relationship with the promotion in June. “There is nothing substantive that was discussed other than the fact we are interested in sitting down with him, which we're planning on doing in the very near future.”
