More than fine? Lol
He may not get sub'd but he'll be working his arse off not to.
This isn't fricking Diego Sanchez or Erik Silva he's fighting.
Maia is not just one of the top BJJ fighters in MMA, he's one of the top BJJ players in the world at any weight.

That's 9 fights.
Demian Maia is great at BJJ, but plenty of people have avoided his submission attempts.
Fitch could certainly lose, and if he does it will be by submission. But it is highly unlikely that Fitch will get caught in a sub.
1. Because he is a wrestler with excellent control and submission defense
2. Because he knows he's fighting Demian Maia and he will be extra aware and extra careful
