D. S. Veteran Posted September 14, 2011 Veteran Share Posted September 14, 2011 The only way Fitch is getting a title shot is if he finishes Hendricks impressively. Hendricks's last loss was to ex-top contender Rick Story, who lost his status by being beaten by Charlie Brenneman, whose most recent loss is to... Johny Hendricks. Fitch better get a finish soon or he's going to stay in contender limbo forever.

D. S. Veteran Posted September 15, 2011 Veteran Share Posted September 15, 2011 Here is hoping for a Hendricks upset. You can hope but it's not going to happen. It's almost like betting against GSP. Johny Hendricks is a good fighter but he's not on Fitch's level by any measure. Fitch is going to grind him to dust for 3 rounds, get the UD and kiss his title shot goodbye yet again.
