Fitch vs Shields. The snoozebowl.

 

[ventrue]

I liked old "Smoke break" Fitch. Too bad he fought during GSP's time. He could have been the Champ. in the UFC.

 

[Pooters]

he said GSP era i agree i mean who else maybe shields?

haha id agree but fitch did say he might have some brain problems thats some serious shit and i appreciated what he did in the ufc

 

[dfoster]

glad he got some recognition toward the end.

 

[TinoSpezza]

Too bad if it's for MRI scans, but, otherwise, he would've been 39yo in a month's time anyway.
Now, I know that outside the ufc there's no usada and such, but it's still fucking 39yo (at WW not HW).

 

[Rod Farva]

Ouch. Hope he's ok

 

[datfnguy]

Boring in victory and defeat. Can't say I'm gonna miss him

 

[RoidRage92]

He should take Jake Shields with him

OK- I didn't really pay attention to the reason, just saw that he retired. Under no circumstance would I wish him ill will when it comes to his health. Good luck Fitch

 

[benibloom]

You're nice.

Didn't he?

 

[hYpeo12]

AS a huge Fitch fan (yes, we do exist) I am gutted to hear this. He looked to be getting it back together a bit and I was hoping he would have another serious WW run. Sucks to hear but you gotta do what you gotta do.

You're not alone as a fitch fan

 

[Chivas GDL]

Was that tonight?

 

[Frank McEdgar]

One thing you can say about him is that he probably put more people to sleep than any other fighter.

owww, owww, owwwwwwwww.......That's Sherdog right there.

 

[Kemeticsoul]

He brought the grind to the next level.

 

[fortheo]

Wow. It's nice that he went out with a win over shields. That's a huge feather in his cap. It's probably a good time to retire because there really isn't much upside to his career at this point.

 

[mangokush]

War Fitch!

 

[Hardkore]

That's pretty crazy that he holds recent victories over Yushin Okami and Jake Shields. Fitch seemed finished after losing to a mediocre fighter like Josh Burkman

Right after he popped for steroids if I recall correctly

 

[Hardkore]

Who was better?
