QUICK TWITT: Wanderlei’s Retirement Video Brings Fitch’s Wife To Tears

Earlier this week, Wanderlei Silva announced his retirement from MMA after saying that the UFC tried to turn his fans against him. One person who apparently has felt the same way in the past is former UFC welterweight title contender Jon Fitch.

Fitch Tweeted the following bit about the video:

video brought my wife to tears because she heard me say the same things for so long RT @wandfc: a new beginning. http://t.co/jYEZIJr7Ws

Fitch, who was released from the UFC after his loss to Demian Maia in 2013, is currently signed to the World Series of Fighting. Fitch was widely criticized for his unpopular “boring” style of fighting.
