Saunders vs. Fitch???????

 I actually like this match up.  Props to Ben for stepping up, no downside for him really!

^^^So how is he "stepping up" then? LOL

ellenberger would've been the tougher matchup for saunders...

You saying Ellenberger is tougher than Fitch?

^^^Fitch has been KOed more and doesn't hit hard. IMO when Ellenberger said "we will see who has a chin!" Ben rethought the matchup

Saunders would definatly end up in worse shape post fight against Ellenberger win or lose

A loss to Fitch doesnt hurt Saunders stock at all, a loss to Ellenberger wouldve been a big setback.

Then there is the fact that Ellenberger hits so damn hard

You're trying to act like Fitch has been KO'd a lot when he's never been KO'd? He was TKO'd 8 years ago if you're counting that. You're crazy if you think this fight will be easier for Saunders, Ellenberger lost to Carlos freaking Condit for goodness sakes.

Chances are Saunders will take less damage though, that I can see.

I dunno,I'd rather see this matchup than Fitch/Alves 2. It's a fresh matchup.

Fitch HAS been stopped/KOed more than Ellenberger has been, how can you argue that? BTW, why are you dissing Carlos Condit, because he had a close loss against a solid fighter dropping from 185 like Kampmann? lol

YourDumbFace - Ellenberger vs Fitch. Seriously.

Saunders is cool, but Ellenberger is going to be a top dog at 170, while Saunders will probably only have 1 or 2 more fights there before he can't make the weight anymore. Plus Ellenberger was going to ruin him anyway. Fuck name recognition.



Do you even have any idea what he walks around at? No idea huh? Tool

You have no idea what your talking about at ALL lol

Fitch vs Ellenberger is a more competitive/better fight.

Saunders is going to be spending the fight on his back.

Dana White thought maybe Jon Fitch didn't have enough UD wins

Why are you acting like Fitch is an easy fighter to finish?

He got KO'd in his 4th fight 8 years ago.

I dont see what was troll like in Fitchfans post.

Theres no doubt Fitch is a higher class of fighter then Ellenberger, though maybe not as dangerous

Who said he was easier to finish, troll? Don't bring that trolling around here. Ellenberger has been submitted more than Fitch has been finished in total so that would be a pretty FUCKING stupid thing to say if I HAD said it, BUT I DIDN'T and your a fuckin looser troll BITCH....probably BITCHFAN (not saying jon fitch is a bitch, fitch your cool with me, but fitchfan AKA BITCHfan is) under a diff. name?? yes

Fitch almost got str8 iced by Pierce in the last round, to say there is "NO" doubt he is better than Ellenberger is a joke, your a joke, this is a troll post of yours how did I forget?? fuck you

From a career stand point Ben is stupid if he doesn't tk this fight (Fitch). Which style will be tougher as far as match up's for Ben-*JAKES. More interested in the fight w/ Jake fight for sure and Jake is going to grow his name and rep something fierce in the UFC. As far as name recognition today, Ben's gotta take the Fitch fight unfortunately.

Paranoid anyone?

Anyways you seem pretty heated there, calm down - not like you're fighting. And it is you're, not your genius.

Fitch is on a different level than Ellenberger, you're the only one who doesn't see that apparently. Yes he has been KO'd more often, but that's like saying he's been KO'd more than Fedor, it makes it sound like he has a glass chin when he's only been finished once a long time ago.

And my point wasn't that Condit is terrible, my point is that you're trying to act like Ellenberger would walk in there and beat Fitch no problem when Fitch's only loss in the UFC is to GSP. Ellenberger is an up and comer, but you definitely need to re-evaluate if you think he would have a shot vs. Fitch.

Another instance of post count not meaning a whole lot it seems...

lofl wtf said anything about fitch vs. ellenberger mongo? Im going to guess that YOUR high, possibly for the 3st time

My bad, I guess I was going transitive property.

And by the way, though you never said it bluntly, you alluded to the fact that Fitch would be easier to finish. Either way, Saunders would be crazy not to take this fight from a career standpoint, it can do nothing but help him.

Bry Bry - fitch/saunders is a stupid matchup...Fitch needs to be placed with someone with equal wrestling as him or else it turns into a snoozer...this fight sucks..


Agreed, this seems like a horrible fight for Saunders, especially cuz he loves the clinch so much.
