UFC 143: Diaz vs. Condit

[Andrew]

Wow Diaz just quit.

 

[Ben]

I'm retiring....I don't need this shit :

Diaz ain't going anywhere.

 

[Slim]

Diaz was very pissed considering how things went down. Hopefully its a premature decision and he isn't officially quitting.

 

[Andrew]

Nick Diaz "I think I'm done with this MMA. I don't need this shit."

 

[No More Sorrow]

Have no choice but to watch the post fight press conference now, Diaz is crazy nobody knows what he's actually going to do.

 

[Andrew]

I'll watch the post conference later. Feel sorry for Diaz in a way

 

[Slim]

I think I see Diaz/Condit II before a GSP fight. Might be the only way to keep Diaz around.

 

[Ben]

He's not going anywhere and here's why.

The GSP fight isn't going to happen to September at the earliest, no way that Condit sits for 7 months. 2 options is for him to defend the title against someone like KOS or they do the Diaz rematch seeing how close this match was.

Like I said earlier the 49-46 was bullshit, could be a toss up of 48-47 either way, but I lean toward Diaz. He pushed the pace and had octagon control all 5 rounds something that is suppose to be scored. Condit won the rounds where he landed more strikes rounds 3-4 and he won those, Diaz won the rest.

Bet money a rematch gets announced at the press conference.

 

[Andrew]

I'd love to see a rematch between the two, should be done and it'd be money for UFC.

A best of three should be done, Condit leading 1-0.

Then the winner of the best of 3 series can face GSP. Doubt that'd happen but it'd be a good way for it.

 

[Slim]

Diaz got robbed. He definitely controlled the fight. Condit did more running. he did score shots and everything but he didn't maintain the pace, he lacked real aggression cept for in the 3rd and 4th round. Diaz should have one.

Diaz/Condit II. winner gets GSP. And if there is a rematch... Diaz is gonna win and it won't go to decision.

Not enough time for a best of 3 unless Condit won the second. GSP will more than likely fight in November meaning there will be one more fight for Condit tween now and then and it can be against Kos or Diaz... and considering how that fight went... Diaz.

 

[No More Sorrow]

During the fight Rogan said GSP won't be back until November there's plenty of time to do a Diaz/Condit rematch and we all know Diaz would jump all over that offer.

UFC 143: Diaz vs Condit Post-fight Press Conference

 

[The Cork]

Haven't read the thread yet and I'll reply properly later but I thought Diaz won the first 2 rds and Condit stole the next 3.

Very disappointed with how Condit fought and don't think he deserved the win, but Diaz stopped throwing punches after the 3rd so has himself to blame really.

The two 49-46 cards were atrocious, I struggled to give him the 3rd round so how the judges gave four rounds to Condit is bizarre....

Dont buy Diaz 'retiring' one bit, hes done this shit before in Strikeforce when he wanted to fight Jeff Lacy. I do agree with his post fight interview though, Condit's style made it hard for me to say he won, when he didnt want to engage at all.

10+K Attendance, 2.3 Million Live Gate Werdum/Nelson FOTN.

Dana White freaking at the press conference because the mics wont work. :

Dana pretty much is saying he doesn't believe that Diaz is really done, Dana is talking about a Diaz/Koscheck fight Koscheck also said he would take the fight if offered to him.

Dana also said the idea of a Diaz/Condit 2 fight between now and November is crazy and he's not so sure about it.
