T-City is the nickname used by American mixed-martial artist Brian Ortega who competes in the UFC. As of February 19, 2019, he is the #2 ranked featherweight contender in the promotion.
T-City is the short form of Triangle City, which refers to one of Ortega’s favoured submissions, the Triangle Choke, a move used in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Ortega has utilized this choke to win 4 matches, most notably against Diego Brandão at UFC 195.
During the press conference of the lead up to Ortega’s title fight at UFC 231 in Toronto, Canada against reigning UFC Featherweight Champion, Max Holloway. Holloway famously claimed to Toronto to be the 10th Island of Hawaii. After the Hawaiian said this, Ortega responded“T-City. Toronto City!” Indicating that T-City could also mean Toronto City.

Unorthodox variant of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu developed from Gracie Jiu Jitsu and 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu which involves grabbing the neck with the bicep and forearm, and proceed to drop to the ground with a quick snapping motion to initiate different submissions, most likely a guillotine choke or d’arce choke.
Training includes unorthodox, counter productive and sometimes stupid drills and workouts. Some of these workouts include lifting weights while balancing on exercise balls, kicking metal poles, elbowing exercise machines and running through uneven terrain with a weight vest. All must be done with proper eye-protection; polarized sunglasses with a darkest tint available. During training, avoid all cables and wiring at all costs.
