Sonnen made it personal in the pre-fight press conference by taking a shot at Ortiz’s former partner, porn film star Jenna Jameson.

Oritz started the verbal barbs:

“He talks well. His mouth has got him every big fight that he’s had,” Ortiz said. “(But) every time it’s time to present and perform, he’s failed. On Saturday night it’s not going to change.

“What I do well, I come with heart, I come with determination, I come in with hard work and perseverance. When I get my hand raised, I’ll know why and so will all the millions of fans that have had my back over the last twenty years.”

Sonnen responded with a low blow about Jameson’s former day job.

“Tito always says I’m using my mouth to get my opportunities,” Sonnen said. “The only person that I know that made money using their mouth is his ex-wife.”

The crowd gasped at the statement with an angry Ortiz quickly responding.

“Well just to correct you, there was never no marriage. You’re a f***ing punk dude,” Ortiz said.

“That’s what you call class, right here (pointing to himself), him, no class. No class at all. That’s why you see him in jeans and a f***ing T-shirt.”

“They don’t call me the bad guy for nothing,” Sonnen responded.

Jameson and Ortiz have twin boys, Jesse and Journey Jett, from their five-year long relationship.
