| IMO Fitch and Alvez are locks at #2 & #3 of the WW division. Neither stacked up very well vs GSP and don't see any rematches coming any time soon. Now Swick is only a win over Hardy away from getting his shot at GSP and then getting smashed by GSP.
So how would the master of Swick-Fu do vs #2 and #3? | |

| He'd have a better chance against Alves if for no other reason than Alves likes to strike and that is Swick's best aspect of his game. | |

| good question. I think if he can keep it standing against Fitch he could definitley win by ko or decision, but im not sure he wants to bang with Alves power. I could also see Fitch dominating the wrestling as he does against everyone not named GSP though. | |

| Swick is much quicker than Thiago but with a lot less power. Thiago's kicks are ridiculous and I think if he caught Swick with a couple solid shots to the legs it would severely limit his quickness. I think Thiago would handle Swick with superior strength and power.
Fitch would take Swick down and control him. Fitch via GnP. | |
