TOMORROW!
I gave this some thought... and well, this is my 2cents: Condit's got skills on his feet and on the ground. His fight finishing ability is unquestioned and very dangerous. His last two fights vs Dan Hardy then Dong Hyun Kim, both ended in clean KO's. Big time knock out power for Condit and submissions.
Diaz is also amazingly skilled on his feet and on the ground... but this guy has a limitless gas tank but maybe no one-hit KO power. Cardio for days though. His last two fights were against Paul Daley and of course BJ PENN 2 weight class world champion and top 10 (in two weight classes at the time), who Diaz completely smashed and punished more than any other opponent ever has against BJ.
How will this go? I'm leaning towards Diaz on this one, just from how things looked in these guys' last fights and considering how well Diaz did with Penn, who I think is much more than a Dong Hyun Kim or a Dan Hardy... but who knows with MMA! Either way, it's going to be a good fight!
Diaz...no question!!

ReplyDeleteI don't think Diaz is taking this one lightly. He needs the win to get back the fight he threw away. But, Condit is no slouch and fights with a lot of hart. He can be dangerous, for sure. This should be a great match up. Diaz is bar far the favorite though. I'm just not sure why.
ReplyDeleteThe pace Diaz keeps on his opponents is unreal. He never gasses, though he does get rocked & dazed from time to time.
ReplyDeleteThe only way I see this going is the usual Diaz by TKO or Condit does some kind of amazing muay thai KO or some shit.
Either one finishing by submission would be a little shocking, but I would doubt Diaz gets subbed himself.
I would like to see Diaz by sub... But to be fair I think Diaz will wear Condit out for three rounds and then GnP to a TKO in fourth.
