Georges St. Pierre (Pictures) vs. Jon Fitch (Pictures)

Nick Thompson (Pictures): St. Pierre via TKO in the second.
Ricardo Liborio (Pictures): GSP.
Nathan Marquardt (Pictures): St. Pierre by TKO in round three.
Gabe Ruediger (Pictures): Personally I think GSP and Fitch can go either way.
Bryan Harper: GSP by either submission or ground-and-pound.
Vinicius Magalhaes (Pictures): GSP by either ground-and-pound or submission.
Din Thomas (Pictures): GSP’s standup has vastly improved, but his chin is still a question mark. I don’t think Fitch can take him down and keep him down. He has to test GSP’s chin. That’ll be difficult to do so. I’ll say GSP by decision in his toughest test yet.
Alan Belcher (Pictures): GSP third-round TKO.
Rob Kimmons (Pictures): St. Pierre.
Chris Lytle (Pictures): I like GSP.
Mike Whitehead (Pictures): Fitch.
Cung Le (Pictures): Jon Fitch (Pictures).
Jason Lambert (Pictures): It’s a pick ‘em.
Cub Swanson (Pictures): GSP.
David Loiseau (Pictures): GSP. He will surprise everyone, maybe even himself on how well he will perform. I’ve been training with him for years, and his progression is incredible.
Doug Marshall (Pictures): GSP.
Eddy Millis (Pictures): GSP via sub.
Spencer Fisher (Pictures): Fitch.
Pros picking GSP: 13
