UFC 87 "Seek and Destroy" weigh-ins took place today at the Target Center in Minneapolis, MN, the same venue that will host tomorrow night’s event.

The highly anticipated main event features a welterweight title showdown between the champ Georges St. Pierre and possibly the most deserving contender of all time Jon Fitch.

That he is…If he had the skills he would be unstoppable. But somebody that big couldn’t possess the flexibility needed for a world class jiu-jitsu game nor a world class striking game.
