John Tuliver: Places to go. People To Kill.

September 16, 2009

Ellenberger rocked Condit down not once but twice early on and nearly had him finished, perhaps if he decided not to go for that choke and just keep throwing hammer fists the bout may have been stopped but Carlos hung on for a few moments to weather the storm and continued a fight to win a split decision.

June 12, 2010

MacDonald was just 7 second away from a winning decision when he got finished by the natural. Rory dominated most of the fight only to slip up in the closing moments and lose to Condit.

In closing, Condit doesn't exactly shine vs the top tier competition but showed good resolve to hang on for a win.

But to beat GSP you have to have more then just resolve.

[Hardy, Kim - NOT ELITE - the only fights he truly shined throughout]

To steal a quote from Brock Lesnar, I can't wait for GSP to pull that horseshoe up Condit's ass and beat him over the head with it! ...WOOOOOOOO!!!!

and yes I am mad.

If memory serves me

after the fact it was revealed that he would have lost a split decision without the stoppage.

I scored the first for Rory, so IMO it was going to be a draw. Incredible that he finished it.

GSP doesn't have the killer instinct of either Ellenberger or Rory

Condit is legit I think he gives GSP a good run for his money, Carlos has swept a couple of strong guys that were in top control (ex. Swept Jake Ellenberger into the mount and landed several elbows and swept Dong Hyun Kim then got back to his feet to land a flying knee)
