Satoshi Ishii claims he’ll fight Tito Ortiz next (11/8 K-1 Ryogoku event results)
By Zach Arnold | November 8, 2010
His fight today at the K-1 World Max event in Tokyo at Ryogoku Kokugikan was against Katsuyori Shibata and he won in R1 in 3’30 with an arm-lock for the submission. After the fight, he claims that he doesn’t want to fight on the 12/31 Dynamite show at Saitama Super Arena. Why? He says he wants to fight Tito Ortiz in America. I’m guessing he’s claiming that he would fight Ortiz in UFC on their 1/1 event?
Either he’s trying to gain leverage or throwing a temper tantrum or just making no sense (as he is often wont to do.)

Ishii might be one of the few people in this world with a bigger head then Tito Ortiz.
Literally, or figuratively? :-p
On another note – Petrosyan is sheer quality.
His contract with FEG is up, the moron is trying to gain leverage again.
He had a contract with FEG?
Technically. It wasn’t with FEG as much as it was WVR/SRC, who “loaned” him to FEG.
To the best of my knowledge he is done with that contract now.
