News Jon Fitch retires,

[krelianx]

Already do, and there's a reason Fitch was cut from the UFC in his prime.

You really don't know what you're talking about.

 

[pankrat]

Nah, totally disagree. They are the same grinding style but Colbybhas better hands.

Pretty simpleton statement.
Fitch had way better jitz, which talking about a grinder is pretty relevant

 

[Anung Un Rama]

RIP. Oddly enough I looked forward to Fitch’s UFC fights.

Fitch has better cardio..

Why is that odd. I did too. But since he got busted for PEDs its a happy time when he loses.

 

[Bboy]

Props to him. He remained competitive after the UFC and fought solid opponents: Okami, Brian Foster, Jake Shields, Paul Daley, Rory MacDonald, etc. Retired with a good record too.

Give it time kid. You’ll understand mma as time goes on.

Dont whats up with that silly attitude is about. But its not really that hard to fullt understand the ruleset of MMA, and still find Fitch fighting style very boring.

I will make it very simple for you:

There are many boring groundfighters in MMA.
There are many entertaining groundfighters in MMA.

There are many boring strikers in MMA.
There are many entertaining strikers in MMA.

There are many boring complete fighters in MMA.
There are many entertaining complete fighters in MMA.

Get it? Try to keep up. Who known. In time you probably will understand.

I see what you’re saying but Colby’s striking output is more effective at winning fights with that style.

 

[machidafan99]

I've become a big fan of his. Great guy and smarter than your average fighter. Very humble. I hope he does some fight analysis or commentary.

I liked seeing if his style can nullify other styles. I though he beat Rory. Should have picked up another championship there.

 

[Judge Lance Ito]

He had a good innings

He only took it cause he was facing Paul Harris who also bends rules and is juiced to hulk status.

Jon Fitch announces retirement would be a better headline.

Let's see how he feels 24hr later

And then if he really retires let's wait six months later to see if it's a real retirement

Pretty sure noone would be giving him piles of cash to get back from retirement... so looks like that decision is final.

You sound triggered as fuck.

Fuck your opinion and your entire paragraph you wasted time to write.

if you find Fitch boring then you clearly don’t understand the full fight game or how it works. Go watch kick boxing if you want to cry about his style. Nobody’s stopping you.

And don’t come at me and say you’re a fighter and you understand all. I fight as well and I get how mma is and the rules.

This is based purely on opinions of fighters and your preferences.

 

[Joker Jiujitsu]

The dude is 42 years old and almost retired a year and a half ago when he had that draw against Rory. It was definitely time or a little past time. Not the most exciting all the time, but very skilled and a good competitor.

Yeah.. i sound triggered. Try Reading mine and your post. Then you see who is mad.

Hint: look for the insults.

Don’t cry over insults. Suck it up, kid.

I agree Fitch is not even close as boring to people who really understand technique as it is to casuals...but he was still rather boring.

Fitch usually prefered to stay on halfguard working weak GnP instead of improving positions or building posture ups to land heavy GnP. I even saw him taking side mount, and willingly return to half guard so his opponent had less openings, sacrificing opportunities to mount better offense.

You come across as a very tough guy online btw

 

[Melas Chasma]

he was one of the best WW ever for years? that doesn't make sense.

dude was overrated back then and he sure doesn't rate all time.

Not that bad, imo, considering how stacked that list is.
