An excerpt from this interview with Tito Ortiz:

“I hope I get the Chuck fight. As a fighter, I would love to kick his ass. As a human being, I don’t think he should fight anymore just because health is more important than fights,”

“Grudge matches are important to sell, but at the same time he has kids to take care of and I don’t want nothin’ serious to happen to him. [Getting knocked out] that many times, it gets kinda scary. I was really shocked [by the loss to Rich Franklin fight].”
