UFC CHAMPION TITO ORTIZ TO APPEAR JULY 19 ON FSN’S BEST DAMN SPORTS SHOW PERIOD ‘ALL-STAR SUMMER’ CELEBRATION

LAS VEGAS, July 17, 2002…The Ultimate Fighting Championship, the world’s leading mixed martial arts sports event, for the second time, will air a UFC fight on basic cable television Friday, July 19, on the Fox Sports Network’s Best Damn Sports Show Period “All-Star Summer” Celebration. Tito Ortiz, UFC Light Heavyweight Champ will appear live on set to discuss the UFC with BDSSP's Tom Arnold, John Salley, Jon Kruk and others. The two-hour show airs nightly at 8:00 p.m. and/or 11:00 p.m. local time on most Fox Sports Net regional sports networks, and at 10:00 p.m. and midnight on FSN Bay Area, Chicago, Florida, New England, New York and Ohio.

On June 25th, Best Damn Sports Show Period made history by airing free TV's first Ultimate Fight from the famous Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas. Rising Welterweight superstar, Robbie Lawler (6-0-0) of Davenport, Iowa, hit veteran Steve Berger (15-7-3) of St. Louis, Mo., with a wicked right followed by a devastating left at :27 of the second round for a KO to remain undefeated. Lawler has won both of his fights in the UFC. On May 10, he defeated Aaron Riley by unanimous decision in Bossier City, La.

The ratings for the June 25th BDSSP show were considered some of the highest ratings achieved by BDSSP and Fox Sports has requested more action from the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
