Fitch has probably driven away more fans then he's brought in.
If that's all you see, then you are either purposefully blocking out what Fitch does or you are blind.

In your case, I'll go with the former.

What the fuck you talking about? Seriously?

He almost never fought his heart out (except Erick Silva fight and GSP fight). If you are on full guard, and you have a very good jiu-jitsu game that you can pass to a half-guard or side mount and you don't, you're Lay'n'Praying. You are actually fighting to point-system your opponent, so you're actually fighting with your brains and not your heart.

Exactly and knowing he's a black belt in the Guerrilla JJ and he keeps himself on an opponents guard not going for anything...

And someone before said he fights his heart out uh? Ignorance is a bliss

"Fitch" and "heart" are two words that don't belong in a sentence ending with a question mark.

You may think Fitch is boring, but I don't think you could rightly accuse him of phoning it in. He's a very hard worker, and did his best to win his fights.

You want to be an ultimate fighter?
KO as much opponent as you can...
Submit as much opponent as you can...
Can't do any of those?
Better run your mouth like a pimp wid a backhand son...

Fitch did fight his heart out every fight...

I can't think of a guy who wanted to finish so badly as Fitch but just couldn't. The guys work rate was incredible.
