Maybe it’s just the great sell job of the video, but I suddenly feel that the GSP-Fitch fight is going to be much closer than I thought. Am I wrong here? Overreacting?

Also: ”...hearts the size of Tito’s fucking head.” Thanks Dana.

Maybe I’m in the minority…but I don’t see Fitch posing much of a threat to GSP.

I’m with you there. I see this basically like GSP/Koscheck, except Fitch will put up more of a fight. But that’s about it.

Huerta, I love you – but a cakewalk? Stop kidding yourself.
And I’m worried for GSP. Fitch has to be the most talented opponent he’s faced in a very long time now.

All I know is that if GSP does lose, then what does that say about him as a champion? He lost his first title defense to Matt Serra, if he loses to Fitch, then you all know BJ is going to talk major smack.

Why would BJ talk smack? BJ lost to GSP, and has 1/2 of a defense at LW, which isn’t nearly the division that WW is in the UFC.

I love Joe, but could he be more disingenuous? “When I first found out about GSP and Fitch I was like WHOA, that’s going to be a crazy fight!”

seriously.

If you were to go in the video vault and watch every UFC Countdown show, Joe Rogan reacts like that to just about every fight he first hears about.

Leave the acting at NewsRadio, Joe.

I really liked Joe on that show. Him and Andy Dick were the funniest guys there. Oh, if only we could get a celebrity mma match up between Andy Dick and Joe Rogan.

There was an episode where Rogan and Dick fight. Dick won by tickling him.

When I seen Jon Fitch fight Diego Sanchez – I was a bit unimpressed. Diego is a good fighter no doubt, but Fitch did not win impressively. Same as when Kos fought Diego, just not impressed with Kos & Fitch. I don’t see Fitch winning, but I do see GSP finishing him off – perhaps in the 2nd round.
