Bellator 170 recap: 'Ortiz vs Sonnen' .gifs, video highlights and more!

Bellator 170: "Ortiz vs. Sonnen" took place last night (Sat., Jan. 21, 2017) at The Forum in Inglewood, California. And after months of trash talking and posturing on both sides, two mixed martial arts (MMA) legends finally had to settle the beef inside the cage. "American Gangster" Chael Sonnen -- who makes as many friends as enemies with his "Bad Guy" persona -- found an old foe from his college wrestling days waiting to spoil his Bellator fighting debut -- "Bad Boy" Tito Ortiz.

When the smoke was clear, Chris Daughtry was done singing, and all the talking was done, Sonnen rushed to the center throwing rights and Ortiz went for a single-leg takedown.
