"If it was up to me, I'd put him out. He won't fight me so I don't want to talk about it because I know he ain't gonna fight me. He's talking all this stuff about 'He lost to Quinton, we all saw it.' Yeah ok, you saw what? We all saw, him [Rampage] asking for a rematch because he knows he lost. You know, come on, but for him to say that he thinks I lost to Quinton, then I might as well think that hey, I guess he [Tito] thought he lost to Forrest Griffin too then; because he was awfully mad both times he fought Forrest, you know what I'm saying? So come on, for him to actually tell me that he thinks I lost to Quinton, I guess he lost to f***ing Forrest too... I'd wipe him. I would just squish him. I would destroy Tito, and it'd be easy work, you know what I'm saying? He doesn't want to fight me. He knows. What's he gonna do, out-wrestle me? What? Out-strike me? What? Out speed me? He's not stronger than me. He's big, but he's not stronger than me. I'd muscle him around, I'd control him. I would smash him. Hulk smash, that's what would happen... Ok, here's how it happens alright. It's easy. Coker goes 'hmmm the fans want Mo versus Tito. Okay. Hmm, alright that sounds good. Ok, what do you think of Mo as heel? Oh That'd be great, do good numbers. Okay, I'm gonna call Mo. Mo you want the fight?.' 'Yeah I want the fight.' 'Tito you want the fight?.' 'No.' That's what will happen, and that's why [the fight] won't happen."

-Bellator's Muhammed "King Mo" Lawal talks to Submission Radio about why he wants to fight Tito Ortiz and why he doesn't think it will happen.

Penick's Analysis: Lawal-Ortiz is absolutely the fight for Bellator to make, unless they think they're getting Rampage back and want to make the Rampage-Ortiz fight that was attempted last fall. That said, Lawal may be right about Ortiz avoiding him. Maybe he just needs to start taking personal shots at him; it worked for Bonnar in a fight that Ortiz figured he'd win. Lawal would probably be more likely to beat Ortiz than the other way around, but if Bellator wants to continue using Ortiz for the "tentpole" shows, Lawal's probably the right fight to make regardless.
