Ortiz vs Hamill at ufc 121

Earlier this morning, Ortiz posted via Twitter:

"Big news ppl! Will let you know asap!"

The news was then confirmed by MMAFighting, who contacted UFC President Dana White. Ortiz later later updated his Twitter account with the following post:

"The cat got out of the bag. Yes I am fighting at UFC121 at the Honda center Oct 23rd. Waiting for the contract from UFC to sign. Let's Go!"

Ortiz (15-7-1) has been out of commission since early this year when he suffered a neck injury that forced him out of his coaching position on The Ultimate Fighter 11. The disqualification as a coach also meant that he would not get a third chance to face opposing coach Chuck Liddell.

The former light-heavyweight champion has gone with a win in his last four fight, losing to Forrest Griffin, Lyoto Machida and Liddell, and drawing against Rashad Evans. Although he defended his former title five times, he has not racked up a win since late October 2006 victory over Ken Shamrock.

Hamill (9-2) and Ortiz are no strangers. Hamill played student to Ortiz's coach on the third season of The Ultimate Fighter. The Ohio-born fighter is currently riding a four-fight winning streak, with his latest victory sending TUF 2 alum Keith Jardine into UFC retirement.
