WWE star Alberto Del Rio will face off against Tito Ortiz on Saturday at Combate Americas. In what will be a retirement fight for the “Hunnington Beach Bad Boy” according to Del Rio.

Despite being a heavy underdog, the former professional wrestler is obviously confident. However, some people including Chael Sonnen believe the fight will likely be fixed, something Del Rio rubbished when talking to Ariel Helwani. (H/T Ariel Helwani MMA Show)

“I think it’s pretty stupid for someone
like him to say stuff like that because we have two individuals, two athletes,
two Mexican-Americans working their ass off. For someone like Sonnen to come
and say something like that is disrespectful.”

For those who don’t know Del Rio
actually does have some background in MMA. During the years 2001 – 2010 he competed
all over the world and picked up nine wins including a victory over UFC veteran
Brad Kohler. He even fought Mirko Cro Cop, it didn’t go well but he fought him.

However, the 42-year-old has not competed since 2010 when he lost via TKO but that won’t be an issue for Del Rio who plans take Ortiz’s legacy this weekend. Both men have put up their respective UFC and WWE belts, but Del Rio insists its about more than that.

“In order to get a title, you have to
put hours and hours of sweat, blood, and tears in order to accomplish those
awards,” Del Rio said. “So, it’s not so much about taking the belt, it’s taking
his legacy. For me, it’s going to be amazing to kick his ass and then take that
UFC title and put it in my trophy room.”

Del Rio believes he won’t only take his
legacy but Saturday night he will end the career of the MMA legend.

“I’m ready to end his career because
he’s going to have to retire after this fight.”

Tito Ortiz no longer helps manage Bellator MMA star and former UFC women’s featherweight champion Cris Cyborg.

Speaking to The Score MMA in a recent interview, Ortiz revealed he stopped working with Cyborg shortly before her 2018 matchup with Amanda Nunes in the UFC, which she lost via first-round knockout. Ortiz notes Cyborg’s boyfriend, also her manager, made some decisions he didn’t quite agree with. (H/T The Body Lock)

“I haven’t worked with Cris Cyborg since before the Amanda fight,” Ortiz said. “Her boyfriend, I guess you can say manager also, made some bad decisions for her and I kind of had to step away. I made a lot of mistakes with the UFC, and I tried to keep her from doing (sic) the same mistakes.

“She’s a big girl, and she can make her decisions, but she was making the wrong decisions. Or I could say her boyfriend was making the wrong decisions for her. But that was just my opinion and I wish all the luck to her. I tried to give as much as I possibly could to her, but she just was willing to listen to someone else who hasn’t been in the same shoes that I have been in.

“I guess everyone learns from mistakes, and hopefully, she’ll learn from the mistakes that she’s made and make a positive reinforcement for the future for her.”

Ortiz, in the meantime, continues his own fighting career. He’ll take on Alberto El Patron this weekend in Texas for the Combate Americas promotion. Cyborg, who recently inked a large contract with Bellator MMA, will challenge Julia Budd for the women’s featherweight title in January.
