I think we're on the same side of the fence here. Maybe my post was a bit convoluted.

I'm still buying it.
Fitch is a grown up, he made his decision and now he is free to earn his trade anywhere he wants other than the UFC.

I'm in. Not buying the game. Fitch is one of my favorite fighters. These guys are trying to make their stands on simple principles, and I'll do whatever I can to support.
