Tito Ortiz is not happy with Dana White, especially after getting snubbed for UFC White House<\/a> tickets.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s no secret that Ortiz and White have not seen eye-to-eye over the years. There was a time when the two men were friendly and shared the same business mindset when it came to Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), but times change. Money and other friendships got in the way and now Ortiz and White find themselves on opposite sides of the spectrum.<\/p>\n

Things appear to be getting worse between Ortiz and White as the UFC CEO continues to snub the \u201cHuntington Beach Bad Boy\u201d for event tickets. Not only for general UFC events, but also for the much-anticipated White House event next month in Washington D.C. Ortiz, who has done a lot for UFC in the past, believes he should have been asked to attend the invite-only event<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wish I was invited to the White House card, and I\u2019m not,\u201d said Ortiz during a recent interview with Tomi Lahren<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter the 16 years I gave to them, from the very beginning, when they first bought the company, to almost the end, where they sold the company. I don\u2019t get tickets. I gotta pay for my own tickets when I do want to go,\u201d Ortiz further explained.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe last time they had a Miami event, I had to pay $1,000 for a ticket,\u201d he added. \u201cIf you\u2019re on Dana\u2019s good side, you don\u2019t have to pay for anything. I get it. He said if you want to be a good friend, I\u2019m a good friend. He goes, but if you want to be an enemy, I\u2019m good at that also.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m the first one to actually tell you he\u2019s 100 percent correct. Don\u2019t get on his bad side. But it\u2019s childish. I mean, to me, it\u2019s just it\u2019s petty. It\u2019s really petty. I\u2019ve done so much for that company.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen they bought the company, they bought the company because of me. They saw a star, and they actually just built it on me. All of a sudden, when The Ultimate Fighter came about, they threw me to the side and got the next fighter up.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s how they do it. They promise you the world until you don\u2019t get it. Then they\u2019ll build another fighter and fill your spot.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m okay with it. I\u2019ll be watching [UFC Freedom 250] at my restaurant, Tito Cantina, as we do every UFC event.\u201d<\/p>\n

What do you think, Maniacs? Is Ortiz getting hosed or is he being petty over UFC tickets he should be able to buy on this own?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tito Ortiz is not happy with Dana White, especially after getting snubbed for UFC White House tickets.
