Fitch wants rematch with St. Pierre

American Kickboxing Academy fighter Jon Fitch is keen on getting a rematch against Georges St. Pierre.

Fitch, who managed to beat Paulo Thiago at UFC 100, was the first man to force St. Pierre to the end of the fifth round.

Fitch lost a unanimous decision to St. Pierre at UFC 87 in August 2008.

“My eyes are set on a rematch with ‘GSP’ for the belt,” Fitch recently told MMAjunkie.com Radio. “I want to fight him for the belt again.”

“I had my shot and I lost,” Fitch said. “That’s just how it goes. That’s how the business goes. You climb the top of that ladder, and if you don’t win, you get put back, and you have to find your way back to the top.

“[Swick] has put in nine wins in the UFC. He’s put in an incredible career with the UFC, and if he beats Kampmann, I think he would deserve a shot.”
