Tito Ortiz is running for office. Seriously.

Apparently former UFC champ and legendary public speaker Tito Ortiz is running for City Council in Huntington Beach. Huh.

Like most things concerning Ortiz, how little this makes sense is why it really makes complete sense. Regardless, any excuse to watch funny compilation videos of his gaffes is a good one.

A promotion could lose their only ever 145-pound champion, while another could give their former featherweight champ second consecutive chance to reclaim his belt. Meanwhile, one of MMA’s all-time great fighters could be headed toward a career in politics. Just another week in MMA. Huh.

HUH? FOR THE ROAD
