I want MMA to run as a sport as much as possible, and want as many of the best fighters fighting in 1 org as much as possible.
But lets be honest about 2 things.
1. Most fans that watch the UFC are not turned on by Jon Fitch's fights and can give a shit less if himself or guys like Okami and Machida ever fight again.
2. No one is ever going to pick to be Jon Fitch in a video game.
The guy has handled this thing in a very classy manner, as opposed to Dana who seems like he is ready to snap. The guy also is an extremely tough and talented fighter and this reminds me alot lf Linland getting the boot from the UFC years ago. The two guys have alot of the same qualities, hopefully Fitch lands on his feet in another org soon with a pay raise and Dana chokes on a fishbone.
I would pick to be John Fitch.
Thats the whole point of the video game, beat it with every character to unlock new moves and all that shit.
timkd - I would pick to be John Fitch.
+1
I guess lets be honest here flew out the window...
I think I might pick him, too. Cummo would be my first choice, obviously.
Id make a custom fighter named BLAF and then be Fitch and beat the snot out of him.....
they should do it like hte old NFL games and black out his face and jsut call him Purdue Wrestling Guy
judging by all the pissed off people here today, this thread is FAIL.

pissed off for what? a rumor? lets let the dust settles before everyone jumps the gun.
it could just be that zinkin is another mark dion...but the UG wants something to get pissed off about. and here it is. sad, really.
VectorWegaLives - The problem here is much bigger than Jon Fitch. Its implications affect the credibility of MMA as a sport.
that was actually pretty good
MountainMedic -Yes, because no other sport negotiates with their athletes through their management.VectorWegaLives - The problem here is much bigger than Jon Fitch. Its implications affect the credibility of MMA as a sport.
