Did Brian Ortega’s romance with Tracy Cortez interfere with his UFC career?
In their respective weight classes, Brian Ortega and Tracy Cortez are top competitors. In 2014, T-City made his UFC debut. Ortega’s first match against Mike de la Torre was controversially called off after a PED test result was discovered. The decision to rule Brian’s first-round submission victory a no-contest led to a $2,500 fine and a 9-month suspension for Brian. Despite this awful beginning, Ortega was able to change things. In order to qualify for a title chance, he went on a 6-fight winning streak, defeating fighters like Frankie Edgar and Cub Swanson among others.
Max Holloway, who set a record for the most important strikes landed in UFC history during that fight, however, completely destroyed him on the ground. Around 2020, Ortega started dating Cortez. Since then, he has lost two of his last three fights. After a two-year break, he overcame the Korean Zombie in October 2020.
He endured a lengthy battle in yet another tough title contest after Cortez confirmed his engagement. This time, Alexander Volkanovski, the current P4P #1. When it came to his connection with Tracy Cortez and how it might have impacted his MMA career and training camps, Ortega once spoke with Schmo.
T-City insists adamantly that his performances in the octagon haven’t been impacted by this relationship. Additionally, Cortez has a perfect record in the UFC since signing a deal with Dana White’s Contender Series. Only time will be able to determine whether their separation had any effect on each fighter’s career.
