re: UFC 132 Cruz vs Faber

Per Tito's excuse making huge head:

“You guys have me competing against the best guys in the world, look at my last four fights. Yes, I haven’t had a win since 2006, but let’s go back in history,” Ortiz said. “I fought Rashad Evans to a draw and I thought I ended up winning the fight, if it wasn’t for me, they said I held onto the fence for a second time when my fingers just scraped across the fence, they took a point away or I would have won that fight. He goes on to win the light heavyweight world title.

“I fight (Lyoto) Machida. Once again, a fight I probably could have gone either way if I would have kept the triangle and he would have been choked out or unconscious, it was a mistake I made. He goes on to win the light heavyweight world title.

“I fight Forrest Griffin after having back surgery. Most athletes don’t come back after having surgery that major, and it was supposed to be against Mark Coleman. It was supposed to be a warm-up fight, and it was against Forrest Griffin who is the former world champion. I thought I beat him in a two to one round decision, but they gave it to him in a split decision. I thought I won the fight. Dana said he thought I won the fight.

“Then all of a sudden I have to have neck surgery, and I get neck surgery on top of my back surgery, and they want me to fight Matt Hamill. He’s a tough, tough wrestler, a tough guy who’s having a 5-0 record at the time of his last five fights."
