Understanding this Saturday’s “UFC 133: Evans vs. Ortiz” pay-per-view broadcast is being met with a lukewarm reception, the planet’s biggest MMA promotion has released an extended video preview to help generate some much needed hoopla for the show.
Former light heavyweight champions Rashad Evans and Tito Ortiz (Pictured) will headline the Octagon’s return to Philly. The 205-pounders fought to a controversial draw four years ago at UFC 73.
A middleweight shootout between Vitor Belfort and Yoshihiro Akiyama will serve as the night’s co-featured contest.
