The much-hyped grudge match between Tito Ortiz and Alberto El Patron turned into, well, a match between a former UFC light heavyweight champion who has stayed active, and a professional wrestler who hasn’t fought an MMA bout in a decade. Ortiz (21-12-1) dominated the 210-pound catchweight bout Saturday night, which was the main event of Combate Americas’ first pay-per-view event. The time of the stoppage in Hidalgo, Texas, was 3:10 of the opening round when Ortiz won with a rear-naked choke submission. As a result of the victory, Ortiz won a side bet with El Patron (9-6), who is best known as Alberto Del Rio from his run in the WWE, in which Ortiz had put his UFC belt up against El Patron’s WWE title belt. Ortiz, who turns 45 in January, walked out to Hulk Hogan’s “Real American” theme song by Rick Derringer to a mixed reaction from the crowd
