I thought the exact same thing about Volkmann and he proved me wrong.

Just sucks for Jon he makes thees'e comments before fighting a beast in E Silva.

Not working in two years and having kids and other expenses can't hurt just about anyone who isn't a millionaire. who's to say he didn't lose a lot of money in the markets or never made nearly as much as people thought to begin with? Between taxes, training fees, paying for your own surgeries (health care is fucking expensive, especially with that many surgeries), and all the other little bills that add up for a guy supporting a family. I just don't see how someone can sit there and brow beat a man without knowing in any real detail what his financial situation is. I'm not saying that he didn't blow money, but I'm doubtful that this guy is a Micheal Vick or MC Hammer, I think he probably had little choice but to spend most of his money on bills. If anyone can prove otherwise, then please do so.

I will give Fitch props for recognizing reality, unlike some guys out there who complain about the fans, he swallowed his pride and made up his mind to go out and be entertaining. That might mean that he takes more losses, but if he can finish guys and be entertaining, then his bills will get paid and maybe then he can provide better security for his family. And hell maybe even win the title, he has the wrestling, learning how to strike isn't impossible, hell if Koscheck can do it, so can he.....

I didn't comment on this thread when I first read it because nobody knows all of the facts. But as far as the mortgages go he said on the count down show that he bought his second house banking that he would beat BJ Penn. Shit like this makes me fucking cringe. I hate when people spend money they are "expecting" to make and then complain when they don't get it.

Not to mention he took in his Tundra to get lifted, suped up and murdered out before he fought BJ Penn. Jon Fitch upgrades his ride - YouTube

Im telling yeah Fitch makes good money, he makes more then double what Johnny Hendricks does, Fitch could easily make 120K with every win, the problem is he hasnt had an official win in like 2 years...but whose fault is that.

Poor spending habits and overconfidence in his abilities.

Why talk about finances in public?

Weak. Real weak.

Sorry Jon with a job you know is short compared to your life span. So being broke so quickly all falls on your own stupidity. Most of us would have to work years just to make 50% of what Jon did last year fighting.
