Tito Ortiz: De La Hoya offering ‘big’ revenue split, but Chuck Liddell is still ‘holding out’

Tito Ortiz is hopeful a rumored Chuck Liddell trilogy bout will be finalized sooner than later.

Dating back to a face-off photo last summer, Liddell vs. Ortiz 3 has been discussed. It never appeared to come close to a done deal until recently, when boxing promoter Oscar De La Hoya expressed interest in promoting the fight under a brand new Golden Boy MMA banner.

According to Ortiz, a UFC light heavyweight champion, he has signed his end of the deal and has been training for the past little while. Now, Ortiz is just waiting for his rival to sign the dotted line himself.
