Dana White and Tito Ortiz Kiss and Make Up -- Literally



Everyone already knows that UFC President Dana White and ex-light heavyweight champion Tito Ortiz are back on friendly terms after White flew to Ortiz's house and re-signed him to a lucrative deal.

Ortiz made his first UFC appearance since May 2008 in Philadelphia during UFC 101 last weekend, and the two seemed as close as ever.

How close? You'll have to watch the video to believe it.


Ortiz took the UFC President by surprise when prompted by his videographer, and planted a kiss on him -- on the lips. White was a good sport about it, and laughed it off. Hopefully neither man's wife considers it cheating.

The two have had an on-again, off-again friendship going back to the time White managed Ortiz before taking an ownership role in the UFC. White's butted heads with no fighter more than Ortiz, but it seems like things are going well between the two.

Someone might want to send the link to the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD), a group to whom White apologized after unleashing an anti-gay slur during an infamous video blog rant earier this year. We're guessing this video goes viral in a hurry.
