    CONDIT TALKS OUT HIS *** (in my opinion atleast)

    -Here what he said in an interview recently..

    “But I feel, me being the champion, I can deal with any one of those guys in the UFC and beat quite a few of them and give any of them a run for their money.”

    “I want to fight anyone who is above me. I don’t put too much thought into who I’m going to fight next or anything like that. I focus on improving myself and being the best that I can be. I know that if I reach my potential, then I can beat those guys, I can beat guys like GSP, I can beat guys like (Jon) Fitch.”

    -Where does this guy get off? seriously man, he should try actually FIGHTING some UFC fighters before he decides that he can beat them. Especially mentioning GSP lol absolutely ridiculous.

    -If your so hard Carlos, stop talking about it, sign with the UFC and PROVE it! im tired of guys hiding in the WEC and acting like they could take anyone out……. if they felt like it lol.

    how easily can condit move to the ufc,is it as easy as “hey dana i want such and such”then poof he gets it?Or does he have to go into extensive negotiations?

    • bvrasp says:

      Richard, im not sure how easy it would be for Condit, there will definately have to be extensive negotiations. In the sense of the UFC recognizing his skill, yes its good that hes in WEC because UFC owns WEC. So they definately want people to think WEC are all good fighters and the WEC champ is obviously supposed to be a great fighter.

      I personally dont think Dana wants Condit to come to the UFC, because they need him in WEC. People obviously like seeing him fight and win and hes creating a fanbase by continuing to win fights.

      Seriously, i dont even think Condit wants to come to the UFC, hes happy fighting the C level fighters and being the big fish in the small pond. Hes just talkin out his *** man..

  3. Maxx says:

    They key phrase here is “I know that if I reach my potential…”, in other words he doesn’t feel he is at his potential yet…therefore not ready for GSP or Fitch. I didn;t find anything abnormal about his statements. It’s your typical Rah Rah I want to fight the best schtick most fighters say.

    • bvrasp says:

      Maxx, he said that since hes the champ, he feels he could beat most guys in the UFC and give the top guys a run for their money.

      Thats alone is BS, he shouldnt even be running his mouth..

      When he reaches his “potential” he can beat GSP, talk about putting the carriage in front of the horse. Its easy to say that man, i think he will find that its easier to say it than it is to actually do it.

      Look at Faber, i think hes overrated, but atleast he doesnt talk sht about he can beat anyone in the UFC.

  4. bvrasp says:

    so Jesse Taylor has been released by the UFC again.. lol who didnt see this one coming? like i said, they should never have brought him back in the first place. I dont care if he went to AA, they cant sure stupid..
