New ESPN 30 for 30 Documentary "Chuck and Tito" to Premiere October 15
  • The next documentary from ESPN Films’ 30 for 30 series, Chuck & Tito, will chronicle the hot and cold relationship between MMA fighters Chuck Liddell and Tito Ortiz—from the very start of the UFC, through its rise in popularity, to present day.
  • The film will air Tuesday, October 15, at 9 pm ET on ESPN and will join the 30 for 30 library on ESPN+ on October 18, the same day as UFC Fight Night: Reyes vs. Weidman on ESPN2.
  • Fans who are eager to check out the film can catch a sneak peek of the full documentary tonight at 10 pm ET on ESPN2.
  • One was a kick-boxer, the other a wrestler. One looked like he’d been in a few too many fights, the other could have stepped off a movie poster. They were Chuck Liddell and Tito Ortiz, “frenemies” from SoCal who brought millions of fans to mixed martial arts and supercharged the UFC.
  • In this brutally honest 30 for 30 documentary, director Micah Brown recaptures their glory days while chronicling MMA’s unlikely history and success.
  • The memorable characters could fill an Octagon: UFC President Dana White, fighters Ken Shamrock and Randy Couture, the UFC Commentator Joe Rogan. But the story really belongs to the Ice Man and the Huntington Beach Bad Boy, whose second fight for the light heavyweight championship at UFC 66 in Las Vegas on December 30, 2006, marked the sport’s entry into mainstream culture.
  • Original music for Chuck & Tito was composed and recorded by producer and artist JT Daly.
  • Daly’s innovative music contributions to the film use actual samples of the fighters punches in songs.

Needs to be a:
30 for 30: Pride Vs UFC - Tale of Two Cities (Vegas / Tokyo) then do an in-depth doc on the rise of UFC / Pride and their brief but spectacular Rivalry and the eventual UFC purchase of Pride and the Great Pride Fighters who came over to the UFC after the purchase.

Eager to see this. As I remember it at the time, it was mostly a non-rivalry that Dana manufactured. Tito sucks, but in a way I'm glad Chuck finally took an L for being a literal corporate hitman at a time when Tito was trying to make sure he got paid his worth.

I'd actually never really thought about the class warfare angle to their rivalry before.

So thank you for forcing me into re-education, comrade.
