I know this has nothing to do with Fitch fighting Gono for some reason...(Stupidest match up since Shamrock vs Shamrock) But does anyone know what the hell Standup Guy and Learning to Sprawl and those other tags above our pics is? Does that reflect my total number of posts or what?

Im picking Gono for the upset he's going to be tricky for Fitch. Fitch is a beast but Gono has better submissions and can take punishment. If it goes in the later rounds Gono will wear him down and eventually submitt Jon.

WW divison is too stacked. They do this way too often it seems like. Throw in random off the wall fights that you'd never expect

This fight is a complete and utter disgrace!
No doubt Gono is a great fighter and could well work his way up the WW division but HASNT YET AND DOESNT DESERVE THIS FIGHT!
Equally Fitch deserves a better ranked fighter - Karo or Koscheck should both be available to fight around this time and would be ridiculously better suited
Maybe the worst matchmaking in a long long time! So now we will have no true #1 contender to fight the winner of GSP/Serra sometime around August - errm well unless Fitch gets it by beating Gono then waiting about 6 months!  And Karo is left twiddling his thumbs
WEAK
