Tito Ortiz Calls Rashad Evans a "Nappy-Headed Ho"

It's what you have come to expect from boxing but Mixed Martial Arts has enjoyed a relative respect between fighters...that is until now with controversial Tito Ortiz referring to his Saturday night opponent, Rashad Evans, as a "Nappy-Headed Ho".

Ortiz called it "just a joke," but Evans is not amused:

"Even if you're saying it in a joking around manner, a lot of people don't joke like that," said Evans... "It makes him look like a clown. My uncle called me and he said 'You gotta whoop that boy's ass. You gotta whoop his ass for all the years of slavery.' It rubs some people wrong."

UFC 73 Betting Odds have this one nearly even though Tito Ortiz is a slight
-135 favorite in this one.

Dana White last week referred to Tito Ortiz as "Big Ugly Gorilla" and "Total Moron".
