Don't see a big deal, he was out of the cage for what? 30 seconds? Wow.

This, and Forrest apologized to Tito for the interview thing.

It's a crock... stay in the damn cage until the fight results and post interview is over.
Let Rogan do his interview, stand there and play your part.
This is a freakiin job.
And it was Titos last fight. I definatly think Forrests antics took Titos moment.

Could be seen as comical, under the circumstances I thought it was totally unprofessional and pretty embarrassing. Just stealing the spotlight.

Couldn't agree more, it was more so the interview of Tito that was annoying than him running out of the cage. Awkward as hell.  |

How many times has Tito completely hijacked the post fight interviews and press conference after losing? Forrest won the fight; Tito shouldn't even be getting interview time. |

Don't matter how many times any fighter has done it. It doesn't make it right.
Forrest ran out of the cage.. (again) and had to be caught by Dana and sent back in until things were complete.. then in Ortiz's last interview created a scene that was unnecessary.
It was unprofessional no matter what other fighters have done. You can't pad that, Forrest is responsible for his own actions.
He needs to control himself better.

The guy is shot as a fighter anyway, he looked awful even in victory. I think after the flogging Shogun gave him, he's going to get knocked out by any top ten fighter.

Forrest was on his way back to the cage before Dana ever caught up with him. He was out of the cage for 20 seconds then started heading back, he wasn't leaving or anything, he was on his way back before anything else was ready to move forward and was just emotional for a few seconds (his words).
As for the interview thing, I don't see it as a big deal but can understand Tito's frustration, and Forrest apologized.

Are you sure about that?
I've seen and read a few interviews that said Dana caught up with him and sent him back to the cage....
One of them is at the post fight presser.. here's another one..

This exactly is what i thought when Forest did it. He won the fight, so Rogan would of interviewed him first, but he wanted to honer Tito and give him the first interview. So he did it himself. I thought it was a pretty decent thing to do, 1 Legend interviewing another after his final fight. Tito did not seem to feel the same though.
The running bit tho? who knows, maybe he had to take a piss... |
