Tito Ortiz: 'It's Nice to Be Home'

LAS VEGAS -- Eighteen months after he last competed in a professional MMA match and following extensive back surgery, Tito Ortiz will finally return to the Octagon this Saturday night at UFC 106 against Forrest Griffin. "The Huntington Beach Bad Boy" defeated Griffin via split decision in April 2006, but when he spoke to FanHouse at Wednesday's media workout, Ortiz said he will look to win decisively in his UFC return on Saturday.

Ortiz also talked about squashing his beef with the organization, being listed as an underdog in this upcoming fight, and making one final run at the light heavyweight title. The video interview is below.
