Jon Fitch Post Re-Hire Interview...New

[PHiLe_BLuNT_5]

i wouldn't have signed that damn video game contract....what if he gets cut again and not for 24 hrs and he signs with a promotion and they want to do a video game?? you really think dana is gonna give up the rights to jon fitchs name without some kind of pay or just to spite that company....i mean come on we are talking about the same guy who put a free show on spike to offset the affliction ppv. and he also put on recent ufc events on tv during what was suppose to be afflictions second ppv and elitexcs last fights. i mean i always believed that competition to the UFC would make the sport grow as a whole and make the fighters want to fight that much harder just to show that they are better than the other ones they could be watching... Dana wants no other company other than strikeforce to exist... he will prolly change his tune when they start to grow more and start bashing them. Fitch is a badass fighter and i hope they can keep finding him fights to have and eventually build to rematch with GSP not win 2 fights then fight him again barely a year after they last fought thats stupid and if he loses to him again no one will ever want to see a 3rd fight...man this turned into a rant.. my bad

I didn't wanna say it, but that's honestly what I was thinking from reading his comments. It's like he's looking for a reason to hate Fitch even before they fight.

Yep in his interviews it sounds as if his managers dealt with the negotiations not him personally.

the way i see it, he still did exactly what dana wanted him to....sign the contract and it wasnt restructured...whether it went through lorenzo or not....dana still got his way

I want you to soak in this thought process for a bit. If he never talked to Zuffa then why would Zuffa have cut him?

Anyway, it's great to see Fitch back in the UFC. Way to go Lorenzo.

That's what I think everytime I see him.

As for Fitch. No big deal when he was out, no big deal that he's back.

he said that before the re-hire that he had problems with the way the contract was shoved down his throat.
