#3 Rumor: Tito Ortiz vs. Chuck Lidell Trilogy?

Speaking to TMZ Sports, Tito Ortiz revealed that he's open to coming out of retirement and face old friend-turned-foe Chuck Lidell.

“I have a lot of interest level...Actually, on New Year’s, I asked the matchmakers for the UFC if they’d ever want to do a Chuck Liddell-Tito Ortiz III and he kind of looked at me and laughed and said, ‘Chuck couldn’t pass to fight again. He’s been knocked out, unconscious, five times.’ I guarantee you the doctor won’t give him a license.”

Lidell teased a return to MMA last year--with a photo showing him and Ortiz--captioned "Why not?"--set the MMA community abuzz. Fast-forward to the here and now--Lidell is strongly positive on returning to MMA this year. Although both fighters are well past their respective primes, this could be an entertaining fight-buildup, trash talk, press conferences et al--if not in the UFC, then in Bellator.
