While the Fighters Only World MMA Awards took place 10 days ago in Las Vegas, the ceremony didn’t actually air until last night on Fox Sports so I didn’t want to play spoiler for anyone who was waiting to watch. And those of us who watched this incredible celebration of the best of the Mixed Martial Arts fighting world in 2012 were hardly shocked by the sport’s biggest names and personalities taking home the top honors.

Perhaps the best news of all was that Tito Ortiz, who is currently trying to help Cris Cyborg lose weight so she can fight Ronda Rousey, was on hand with his best babe, Miley Cyrus Jenna Jameson. The former porn queen had previously been Twitter flirting with Jon Jones and Ortiz confirmed that true love was dead when he Tweeted about being single. But don’t feel bad for Jones, because he was the night’s big (male) winner, as he took home the Charles “Mask” Lewis Fighter of the Year award.

More importantly, though, were the top female winners, as they are two women quite close to our hearts.

The honeymoon is over. After a 2010 spent mostly accusing each other of abuse and painkiller addiction and several extremely public attempts to whimper about how sad they are with each other on the Internet, it looks like UFC Hall Of Famer Tito Ortiz and Adult Video News Hall Of Famer Jenna Jameson are calling it quits.

Okay, they probably aren’t, but Cage Potato caught a great exchange between Jenna and a popular UFC fighter who is … not exactly Tito Ortiz.

That could be innocent, right? Jenna Jameson has spent a lot of time in Vegas, likes the UFC and probably calls everyone she knows “babe”. Gives them nose-smileys, too.

This tweet followed those, five days later:

UPDATE: Nice slideshow at the end of this. Enjoy.

Here’s Jenna Jameson in what might be the saddest family photo ever. Jameson reportedly has been in “a monogamous relationship” with mixed martial artist Tito Ortiz since 2006. And then I guess the 36-year-old wondered about what her kids might think of her “acting career,” and so earlier this week, she announced that she was getting out of the adult film biz.

When asked how she would explain her former job to her kids, Jesse and Journey, she said, “I really don’t think I need to say, ‘Mommy was a porn star.”

She went on to say, “I feel like they’re going to know me and think, ‘Mommy loved us so much that she quite everything and made us her job.’ And that’s what I did. The moment I decided to have children, I quit. I won’t even do a Maxim cover.”

Would you pay $27,000 to watch an over-hyped superstar go through the motions?  It's a complicated question I know – yes, if the star is Jenna Jameson.  Gavin Maloof is counting on you to expand your spending horizons: 

"This is the biggest event that ever hit Las Vegas," said Gavin Maloof, whose family owns the Sacramento Kings and the Palms, where the players are staying. "No question about it, bigger than any fight. Let me tell you why. The tickets, they're brokering the tickets 10 rows up, five rows up for $27,000 a ticket.

I thought the biggest event ever to hit Las Vegas was when Debbie Reynolds joined Wayne Newton on stage in a duet.  Seriously, the NBA All-Star game?  C'mon man, gambling and prostitution are legal in this city.  Rich people shouldn't use hyperbole because they have no sense of scale.

Maloof has had a big hand in it. He said he and his brother, Joe, were talking about the idea of a neutral site All-Star game and pitched the thought of it being in their city to commissioner David Stern, who told them to bring it to Mayor Oscar Goodman on one condition: No betting on the game in the sports books. Being an exhibition that doesn't get heavy action anyway, that was no problem.

Oh wait this was your idea, no wonder you're so excited.  There's a word for people who inflate ticket prices and over-hype events because they have a financially vested interest in the proceedings.  What is it?  Oh yeah, Ticketmaster.  Screw this guy; I'm betting my paycheck on the East, and I don't need any points. -KD

(Assistant Editor Update: Thanks to Jack for pointing out that prostitution is illegal in Las Vegas.  Just because I wasn't arrested, doesn't mean that you won't be – oh wait, I've said too much. -KD)
