It will be good but maybe not awesome
I see it possibly turning out like Silva Henderson wheres its percieved as the last real major test for GSP in the division but then he beats him fairly easily when everyone expects a 5 round war

I'm definitely not a fan of Fitch's but he does deserve the winner of Serra-St. Pierre next.

I'm not dogging on Wilson at all i was one of the few who thought he had a legit chance to beat Fitch but if he wants to compete with GSP hes gonna need better all around skill and not just wrestling IMO GSP is one of the best P4P wrestlers in MMA and Fitch dosnt have very impressive BJJ or mch striking so i see it being a short night for Fitch, Kos to me would beat Fitch, i think he deserves the shot at GSP after he beats Serra, honestly GSP vs Serra 3 interests me more, this 2nd match with Serra is a must win in GSP's career.
GSP will likely be champ until or unless BJ wants to challenge him again, in that a controversial split decision the first time around, that fight is in my top 5 fights of all time and i think many of you agree and many of the GSP nuthuggers think it will be a short night for BJ... well maybe but i doubt it, it should be more competitive because both are much improved all around.

I disagree Diego had him in a few bad submissions spots and he ecasped without a scratch on him not to mention has 5 wins by submission, and his striking skills have always been good. Wilson did the best job on the feet against Fitch and he didn't even beat Fitch on the feet. I still think Fitch did enough in the 1st wrestling wise to take it, and Fitch pretty much clearly beat him in the 2nd and 3rd round on the feet and on the ground. The 1st he was in the feeling out process because once again Wilson was unknown so he didn't know what to expect.
Wilson is the best striker out of the famous Team Quest camp which is legendary from Grecco Roman wrestling so of course they were going to neutralize Fitch wrestling with there famous wrestling training Wilson probably did with Lindland and Hendo and make it a stand up contest that he ended up losing in rounds 2 and 3 anyways.
Wilson and Fitch don't get enough credit at all. That was Fitch's worst performance and he still won rounds 2 and 3 and I had him winning the 1st from wrestling still. You look at every other worst performance and it's against a can they took lightly and got destroyed by(Jardine and GSP, the camp they takes you lightly  ) and Wilson IMO could beat most famous WW's like Burkman, Lugi, Swick, and maybe even Davis and Kos.

I dont agree that GSP VsFitch.(providing GSP beats sera) would be as the last real opponent for GSP for me Davies and karo are up their two and are just as deserving of a title shot. There was alot of talk about GSP moving up to fight Anderson silva but imo he has to watch his back the ww division has a lot of depth and will not be short of a legit opponent for the forseable future

Serra blows, he caught GSP with a lucky haymaker, Jon Fitch should get a title shot soon, he would have a better chance than Serra, Serra is just gonna get rolled up quick!

well if you read the first part of my post instead of disecting it youd see the credit i give to wilson and fitch beside the fact that i said i didnt think fitch was at the stage of beating GSP, i think he could beat Serra but dont see him winning, i even said fitch deserves the title shot, so dont discect my post to make me sound like a jerk when i gave both of them credit

I never called you a jerk or tried to make you look bad. Your too sensitive. I was talking everybody in general, I didn't say your name specifically. I saw like 20 threads on here were people were dissing Fitch just because he didn't finish Wilson.
btw, Fitch is a BJJ Brown belt(the one below the black belt) so his submission skills are pretty damn good.

you quoted me, therefore it was directed at me, so if we were talking face to face and then you said oh wait i wasnt talking to you, does that sound credible? maybe you shouldnt do that next time and just say that without quoting one thing i said, its all good no sensitivity was needed, theres just no point of it
