    Jon Fitch (17-2-1) will give GSP a good run for his money. However, in every aspect of fighting, Georges St Pierre is just a little bit better, and that includes wrestling. You can break down this fight into 3 components striking, wrestling and grappling. The difference between the two fighters is that St. Pierre seeks out the best in every discipline. He trains with the best and most fundamentally sound wrestlers, strikers and grapplers.

    Welcome to S2! You're site looks good, I'll definitely be checking it out. If you have any questions feel free to PM me.

    I agree that GSP will overwhelm Fitch but I think GSP is going to finish the fight early, not work his way to a decision.

    one of the best bets to make is at 5 Dimes the lines ares +360 if the fight goes to the distance and +540 for GSP to win by decsion

    if you bet 200 bucks on thsoe two bets u can net 1000 bucks

    I really think this fight will go be decision and Fitch will slow play the fight

    I don't think this fight will play out like everyone seems to expect it to.

    I think it will be like Sherk/Penn with neither fighter too eager to go to the ground, so a kickboxing match will ensue.

    I see GSP getting the better of Fitch on the feet, Fitch getting desperate and going for takedowns and getting stuffed, and GSP eventually earning a TKO. I don't expect it to reach the championship rounds.

    GSP with either a sub or KO in the 2nd round.

    If GSP is totally prepped for this fight like he was vs Hughes, Sherk, Trigg and Koscheck, then yeah he'll dominate and end it early. If he's thinking of December and BJ Penn, then Fitch may get a Matt Serra shot off, but I think he doesn't capitalize like Serra did and GSP still wins it.
