Condit duidelijk beter

Wat een conditie die Condit

Gast dat meen je niet. Diaz heeft de hele partij met zn handen in de lucht een beetje tof staan doen en vergat dat het misschien handig is om zelf ook af en toe wat uit te delen. Nog niet eens een twijfelachtige beslissing

Terechte beslissing, beetje tof doen (wat overigens wel nice was xD) maar vergeten punten te scoren.
En fuck wat kan big country incasseren, ongelofelijk.

Ik hoopte van te voren serieus dat Diaz zou winnen, want ik keek echt uit naar GSP - Diaz, maar tegen iemand als Diaz moet je echt wel een beter gameplan hebben dan faceon met em te gaan boxen want dan krijg je echt teveel klappen lol. Dus snap niet hoe je Condit deze partij niet kan geven, terwijl hij overigens ook prima z'n benen gebruikte voor een boel shitload aan combo's

Ronde 1,2,5 waren gewoon voor Diaz.

Carlos Condit was able to use movement to keep Nick Diaz from really ever getting off through the majority of five rounds in the UFC 143 main event and it was good enough to win him the interim welterweight championship. As for Nick Diaz? It was enough to send him into retirement.
...or at least what he says will be his retirement.
I scored the fight 49-46 for Condit, it seemed pretty clear to me that he won the first four rounds, even if the first two were reasonably close. I thought the fight was a thoroughly enjoyable affair that saw Condit fight smart and never allow himself to get pinned up against the cage where Diaz has done his best work over the past few years. While many felt it was "running," to me it was taking advantage of Diaz's footwork and openings to get back out into the middle of the cage where he could score with leg kicks and pick and choose when to engage with combinations.
The reality is, strategy is important at the upper end of fight sports. In the same weight class where we saw the whole "Georges St. Pierre got too strategic once he got to the top of the sport" cries, we now are seeing it with Condit. Maybe it's that there are so many dangers at 170 that sometimes it takes a strategic approach to get the win.
Asking Condit to stand and trade with Diaz is asking him to do the same thing that got fighter after fighter busted up by Nick.
