Quick Hits: Baby Names, Weight Class Jumps, Opinionated Rants, + More
(Welcome to the world, Jameson twins. You're screwed.)
Tito Ortiz and Jenna Jameson have put the unfathomable power of their two super-brains to work and come up with names for their newborn twins: Jesse and Journey Jett.
You know, considering who their parents are, I’d say these kids got off pretty easy. Although it is a bit of a screw-job to give one kid a normal name and then name the other after a band that won’t even be ironically cool anymore by the time they’re in junior high. But hey, as long as they’re both carrying around the illustrious Jameson surname neither one of them is going to be lacking in emotional baggage.
In other news...
- Miguel Torres is looking for greener pastures and better paydays with a move up in weight, but he’s not settling for going up just one weight class. The WEC 135-pound champ tells Versus.com that he’d eventually like to move up to 155 pounds and get a contract with the UFC as a lightweight. He’s right when he says he’d make more money that way, but would he really stand a chance against the Gray Maynards and Sean Sherks of the world? Only one way to find out. I’m intrigued.
- The UFC hasn’t been to Detroit since UFC 9 in 1996, but they may be on their way back in late 2009 or early 2010. Just the idea of going to Detroit for a UFC event is depressing to me, but VP of Regulatory Affairs Marc Ratner says the UFC has been seeing strong pay-per-view numbers and good Spike TV ratings in Michigan. Better keep one hand on your wallet while you’re there, UFC. Just saying.
- Finally, if you’re like me you’re sick of B.J. Penn’s quixotic quest to destroy Georges St. Pierre with his requests to have the welterweight champ suspended, fined, and showered down before every fight. But unlike me, you probably don’t have a SI.com column on which to rant about your disappointment with “The Prodigy.” Don’t worry, I went ahead and did it for you. You can thank me later. Or send me hateful, hurtful emails. Either one.

BIGDADDY Says:
Jenna is PROLLY the only woman who is capable of having Tito's "BIG HEADDED" kids without a "C" section....those kids came out nooooooo problem im sure ;)
Koko B Ware Says:
I heard those kids cartwheeled out of the womb...
B-tard Says:
Jameson has two kids fall out of her vagina and you're going to rip on Detroit?
Ample Says:
"She can carry your heavy loads, she's real strong. When she gave birth, them babies came out sideways....she didnt scream or nothing"
She could probably give birth through her anus and not flintch.....damn
DmonicIdeals Says:
What do you want to bet that Jenna is the one who asked if the UFC could watch her kids.
RED Says:
I heard she didn't even go into labor. They just played Mosh by Eminem and both of them walked out wearing robes followed by their crew.
Wyatt Says:
as far as the BJ Penn thing goes, my grandfather always used to say, you either make up a reason to win, or an excuse to lose.
BJ has always had an excuse hasn't he?
ItburnswhenIpee Says:
Good SI column, hopefully Penn reads it and comes to his senses- otherwise his champ days are done; all arrogance, no drive just won't cut it.
subwayy2sallyy Says:
Trains, Planes, and Automobiles
Wandering Wade Says:
Name fail. Plus, I don't care how loose what used to be her Vagina is. If any child that has Tito's Cranium comes out it's over. Let alone 2 of them. I bet it looked like an old Kool-Aid Commercial.
homegrowncone Says:
I think Dana picked up a map and decided Detroit was as close to Toronto as he was gonna get this year.
Darwin Says:
my dad can beatup your dad
McClaniac Says:
ouch, Detroit really isnt that bad, its a nice place... if ur Mad Max and enjoy thunderdomes then you will fit in perfect!!
C-los Says:
Since everything Tito does has some type of symbollism attached to it here is what the names of his kids really stand for;
Jesse; to Dana w. " Jesse how much affliction is going to pay me to fuck up the color comentating"
Journey jett; stands for his wife's long journey of fitting "jett" looking-like foreign objectsin her vagina
Oh those names fit in so well it's almost tender
Journey Says:
OOOOH THE WHEEL IN THE SKY KEEPS ON TURNIN
Snuffy Says:
C-los, your a genius. Bravo.

It's depressing to me that the author of this article mom chose not to swallow.
The internet allows you to speak your mind, which is fine. Too bad idiots like you have access to it. Just like Jimmy Kimmel predicted Detroit would riot when they won the NBA title, as well as the Red Wings, and so on and so forth.
Punk asses like you continue to type behind keyboards with your racists undertones, from the safety of your home. When you live in Detroit, and not in the suburbs writing from your moms basement, eating ramen noodles watching a HDTV your fat girl friend (in your case boy friend) bought you. Then you can talk shit about Detroit. I hope somebody does rob your ass, literally. Since Detroit isn't allowed to get a UFC event in your world.
If you're scared to go to Detroit, you should keep one hand in your pussy, and the other over your mouth and shut the fuck up.

"You either make up a reason to win, or an excuse to lose."
-Good call, Wyatt! That's the story of failure-excuse-monger airhead BJ Penn.
Bruce Buffer Says:
@ this guy
Nothing like combating some stereotypes with some more stereotypes. I guess all bloggers live in their mom's basement and all the trash lives in Detroit.
So let it be written...
Bruce Buffer Says:
As for the baby names, I think REO Speedwagon Ortiz has a better ring to it...
Beyond Sedated Says:
I guess i'm the only guy who's enjoyed jennas work, tito is a douche but he was at one time a good fighter...I guess it's cool to bash them, I doubt any of you would turn down that piece of ass. This is just a bash fest, fuck detroit,bj etc etc. Ps while we're bashing people places and things, fuck your SI article.
This Guy Says:
@ Bruce Buffer, I'm singling out one guy. Not an entire population of people. Just as if I were to single you out, for making yourself look like an ass. Obviously I think this site is great enough to post on. I read it/respect bloggers and their opinions.
They wouldn't have a comment section if they didn't want to hear ours. Though yours should probably go unheard, due to ignorance.
And those children will have monster foreheads.
Daddy Doug Says:
well if the twins are maternal and they are a boy and girl maybe you can name the girl Cunnie and the boy Lingus. just a thought.
knightrida Says:
I liked that column until I saw the word 'ubiquitous.' Did you really have to go there, CP? There's no other word in journalism that needs to die like that one. You're better than that. You're better.
Anonymous Says:
What a mug that broad has developed. She used to be pretty fng hott. Now she looks like the guy from raiders of the lost ark that melted.
Summoner10 Says:
My knee-jerk reaction to the Detroit/Michigan dig is to be offended, but than I realized, even as a former detroiter, that it is absolutely true. :(
probably though, the UFC won't actually be in the city proper. I'd imagine the Palace of Auburn Hills as a very appealing place to the UFC to hold an event, its the right capacity, a very nice arena, and Auburn Hills is a much better place to hold all the during the week pre-event hoopla than say downtown Detroit if it was held at Joe Louis Arena or CoBo hall.
War Machine Says:
fuck a weight class jump
Goog Says:
I've been to Detroit a lot over the years. I guess you have to call a spade a spade. For n-o-w... it is what it is. Yes, it's got a lot of run down and dangerous areas and looks pretty pretty bleak, but they've also been trying to divert a big chunk of money to redevelop several of the sport complexes and tourist-type areas and attractions over the last several years. It's not quite there yet, but I think it's got a lot of character and when all the pieces finally come together, it'll be another city that typifies one slice of American life. It reminds me of Pittsburgh in a lot of ways. Industrial, scrappy city with bright spots and low points alike.
So yeah... it's got potential and is moving towards brightening it up, but it's still unnerving to be in certain areas at night.
And like it was said above... it's just cool to bust on Tito and Jenna, I guess. He's played money games with the organizations and had a rough outing as a commentator, but at the end of it all, he put ALOT of asses in the seats while UFC was gaining momentum. And Jenna's bad surgery aside, she's made a gajillion dollars and is set for life, unlike alot of the others who get into porn, burn out on drugs, and die young and penniless. Those two are alot of things, but bad business people? No.
UFC fan Says:
You hear that " this guy" Goog just called you spades a buncha fucking spades.
word! stay black yo! :)
Frank Mur Says:
@Goog
putting a gazillion wieners in yer mouth is bad business, and marrying a woman who's had a gazillion wieners in her mouth...even worse! I guess for some folks it's all about the CASH! As far as Detroit getting a UFC event, that would be great, every big city has it's ghettos and "bad" spots. Detroit is no exception by any means, however it's bright spots are incredible from the new casinos to the older hot spots like Greektown, check out the medias praise of the city during the super bowl. I'd love to see the UFC come to the "D", but it wouldn't hurt my feelings to see it at the Palace either, I work next door.
Goog Says:
@ UFC Fan... um, no.
@ Frank Mur.... lol I agree. No million wieners. But she's got production companies and a brand that'll be a cash cow for years without her needing to show her face [or anything else].
I almost took a job in Auburn Hills a couple years ago. Nice area, but people in Detroit don't consider that "Detroit". Just like the mayor bitching about Jay Leno promoting his free concert in Detroit... at the Palace. She has a point. And you supported what I'd said - alot of the tourist driven businesses and areas are coming along nicely. There's still work to be done, but it's a nice start. I wouldn't have said that 10 years ago, but things are changing.
Thoughts Says:
Jesse "The Jack Hammer", team punishment fighter, grows up to defeat a withered Ken Shamrock who will, even at the age of 64, refuse to say its over. Tito is found in the crowd wearing his old UFC belt and a t-shirt that reads "Dana White Is My Bitch". When interviewed after the fight Tito says "Look at the head on that kid. That is an Ortiz head right there; Hard as a rock. Ken was soft when I fought him and I think this proves that today."
Journey "Jizzim" Jett, the next generation porn star, at the ripe young age of 18 has the rounds with mom's old friends in a porn series that goes on to win the 2027 AVN award for best anal scene with a woman over 60. In his acceptance speech he claims all his moves were passed down from his mother. Mom is so proud, but her latest botox job wont allow her to smile anymore.

I take it you don't speak the Queen's english. Please do the english speaking world a favor and never post again.

My ex-wife shat out a lil rotten fucker 2!
T Rex Says:
I'm still amazed that Jenna Jameson is even able to get pregnant.
Fat Irish Pirate Says:
I dont like stereotypes either! I mean, with all y'all say about us Texans being full of rednecks and inbred retards with guns and diving trucks and everything, I dont like these kinds of comments either. It's idiotic and hurtful to people.
And I'll tell you this, when UFC goes to Detroit, I as a faithful fan, will jump in my Ford truck, take my first cousin on up for a romantical getaway, and if any of them yankee bastards try to mess with me they can talk to my 12 gauge.
Peace from Dallas, stay Southern, yo
This Guy Says:
@ UFC fan Goog expressed his opinion elegantly and in an articulate manor. I came off very brash, but if anything it was more to show how the article was presented. As far as that subject goes, he put it very well. You sir, did not.
It's like what Fat Irish Pirate said. I would have made the same statement if he mentioned Texas or any other state. It's no reason for that type of ignorance to be spread.
Cage Potato has much better taste than that. Labeling a whole city as thieves, just renforces every negative stereotype, and saying they don't deserve a UFC event is idiotic. Like Drunken idiots haven't been posted on youtube fighting in the stands when they go to other states. Way to be a hypocrit, I dont hear anyone saying they shouldn't go back there. News flash, stupid people live every where.

oh my fucking god thats gotta be the two uglyest people ive ever seen
CanadianProduce Says:
Nice article Ben...I was a little unsure where you stood on the whole debacle. It's nice to see cooler heads prevail and that a reasonable person can see that BJ is screwing himself over.
Johnnymack.. Says:
All right..... For all you guys ..Ben included..who seem to think that because the Jackson camp said ..."Uh, it was an acciident !...ya, an accident!.." That it was in fact an accident...I got a bridge I'd like to sell ya. It....is ....on ...tape. It's not a "breathing technique" it's not an accident..It is Phil Nurse taking his greased up hands and rubbing them on GSP's neck, shoulders, arms, chest and back.
I get it, you people love "Growth horomone Pierre" to the point that you have blinded yourself to any form of reality..but try to have some perspective. It's right there on tape...it's all over the interenet...GSP and his camp got caught red handed trying to gain an edge. They didn't fill his gloves with lead or shoot BJ with a tranqualizer dart but they did something that is considered cheating and wont admit it. They are being just as childish as BJ about it but because GSP is so popular people could care less.
And it did have an effect on BJS's performance...There I said it...Watch his legs the whole time he is trying to obtain rubber gaurd..GSP doesn't shrug them off or power out of them..They slide down his back with so much ease that it's ridiculous.
I'm sure some of you can form complex thought so try to pay attetion. BJ Penn is known for having one of ,if not th most, dangerous gaurds in mma. If he had been able to obtain any kind of grip on GSP's body while he was on his back the fight could very well have had a different out come. BJ could have stopped GSP from posturing, he could have avoided strikes and he could have attemeted submissions. All I can say is watch the Tape again...It is painfully obvious that GSP is to greasy for Penn to lock in any kind of effective gaurd. I don't like Penn as a person, but he fights cleanly and deserves a fair fight. Calling this whole thing childish and petty on Penn's part just because you like GSP better is riduculous. Ands grow up yourselves a bit CP..When someone gets caught and says "I didn't do it" they are not always telling the truth...whether you loikie them or not.
Johnnymack.. Says:
Sorry...just one more thing...I don't think BJ really had a chance, he came out looking dead on his feet to begin with but we'll never know if he could have pulled something off on the ground and it doesn't exuse gsp or his corner in the least. I wish Penn had just stayed at 155 and made a legacy for himself.
emptyhandkiller Says:
One good thing about the twins' births.... the doctor actually walked into her baby hole and carried out the twins. He was greeted at the edge of her vagina by Tito and three nurses. Everyone healthy and happy!!! Go Tito, GOOOO!!!!
Jay Says:
Why are Tito and Jenny making their "O" faces?
DetroitMMAfan11 Says:
detroit/michigan deserves a ufc ppv event lol. we are suffering more than any other state in the US right now with this crappy economy. even at that, i guarantee a ufc event at joe louis arena or the palace of auburn hills would sell out in a matter of hours.
DetroitMMAfan11 Says:
lmao. 12 gauge? if you come to detroit i hope you bring something more gangsta than that. we carry carbon 15s with the 100 round drum. : )
