How about Gunnar Nelson as Jon Fitch's next opponent?

Watch Gunnar at the ADCC,

Fitch is NOT going to be able to lnp him.. (Not saying Gunnar would beat fitch, but fitch would not be able to wet blanket him)

MMA grappling is different from ADCC. I don't think Gunnar would be able to get Fitch to the ground as easy as Maia did. Maia is also a much better grappler than Nelson.

Suggesting Nelson can walk through Fitch because Maia was able to seems a little premature and naive.

I know you didn't suggest he would walk through him but the guy I originally quoted did.

Good JJ leaves Fitch powerless. Gunner is great on the ground. Maybe if he gave a shit a little more he'd end fights pretty fast. You'll see. Don't sleep on him.

Besides being the superior grappler, Maia is incredibly strong.
Gunnar has a lot of promise but I have no doubt he would get Fitched if he fought Jon next.
