John Fitch...boring??

I dont know why, but i dont get to like the guy, i dont think he's that much exciting like for example this trainging partners, Kos and swick are great, and i know fitch beat thiago but i found thiago way more exciting.....and its not because of his style, cuz i was actually rooting 4 hughes....

but Diego, Kos, Swick, Hughes, Alves, and even Karo are IMO more exciting fighters

I think he's exciting. But I like wrestlers and watching them control on top. That makes me a freak on Sherdog.

Diego and Kos are more exciting, I would agree with you there. But I would put Fitch above Karo and Swick in the excitement rankings.

Even though half of his fights in the UFC went to decision, Fitch is a great fighter and not some LnP wrestler.

i think hes exciting in the same way randy is exciting. he just sorta beats on people so bad that its entertaining. the fight with thiago is really fun to watch for me, just a brutal dismantaling thiago could do nothing.

So you think Fitch is a boring fighter, but you love Josh Koscheck's amazing, dynamic style...

Koscheck has turned into a well rounded fighter, he's a wrestler but he can stand as well and he ko'd hazelett with a head kick and then he went for the finish...so...yes Koscheck is far more exciting than fitch....but i agree with NoPain saying fitch is a smart fighter...somehow he knows how to establish his gameplan

fitch is definatley good

more exciting than recent swick or karo. also more exciting than machida, though that isn't hard to do

It boils down to whats more important: Winning fights and making a name for yourself or losing fights excitingly and making somewhat of a name for yourself

He seems to have a delicate balance
