SAN JOSE, Calif. — Shortly after his opponent, Rory MacDonald, seemed to question whether he had it in him to continue, Jon Fitch said that this may have been in last fight.
Fitch, 41, said that due to neck damage and bad brain scan results he got prior to his Dec. 31, 2016, fight with Jake Shields, he told himself at the time that if he lost that fight, or when he lost his next fight, that he promised himself he would retire.
”I didn’t lose, so I don’t know if I should keep that promise,” Fitch said.
