Aaron Simpson wants to face Jon Fitch at UFC 152 on September 22nd in Toronto, Ontario, Canada
UFC welterweight grinder, Aaron Simpson has this week revealed he wants to go head-to-head with former title contender, Jon Fitch on the UFC 152 card set for September 22nd in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, a fight that was originally scheduled to happen earlier this year.
Speaking via Full Contact Fighter, Simpson said:
“I would like to fight Fitch as soon as possible. September in Toronto would be perfect, but we are waiting to hear back from Fitch’s camp. We’ve asked for the fight. I’m looking forward to getting back into training ASAP with my team at Power MMA and Coach (Tom) Vaughn.”
Simpson has been on an impressive run of late, winning four of his last five bouts inside the octagon. He put together three straight wins at middleweight before losing out to Ronny Markes in February. He then dropped to welterweight for his next fight and defeated Kenny Robertson via unanimous decision.
