After his brutal knockout of Sean Salmon, Evans was given his first shot at one of the UFC's big names with a match against the Huntington Beach Bad Boy, Tito Ortiz. Ortiz had been out of competition for some time, but he didn't show an ounce of rust, taking Rashad down early in the first round. The fight went to a decision, and the judges ruled it a rare draw, but barely - Tito was penalized a point in the second round for holding the cage, and without that he would have won. This was Evans's first time coming out of the Octagon without a win, and it fired him up for future contests.
