this is the judging criteria for UFC fights. -Clean Strikes -Effective Grappling -Octagon Control -Effective Aggressiveness. clean strikes- Condit Effective grappling- Maybe Diaz from the 5th round? i dunno, not much grappling. Condit could take this criteria to since he stuffed some take downs Octagon Control- Diaz Effective aggressiveness- this is interesting cause while Condit had the cleaner strikes Diaz was the aggressor most of the fight. personally i had it 3-2 Diaz but I don't have a problem with a Condit win. i did look stupid when i told my friends this was gonna be fight of the year and it turned out to be really technical lol.
Don't know what they're looking at? This coming from you...is this a joke? Please tell us, one more time, who deserved the decision between Melendez and Masvidal.
I'm losing respect in our polls! People have voted for Diaz purely out of hate for Condits gameplan. Similarly I think people voted for Bisping purely out of hate for Sonnen.
I don't see how any unbiased person can score that fight to Diaz. His aggression was totally ineffective throughout due to Condit's smart gameplan of constantly moving away and never getting caught in a bar room brawl type situation with Diaz. Some uneducated people might consider Condit's movement as "running" but it's not when you are also CONSTANTLY landing clear strikes to your opponent while your opponent is pushing forward and not landing anywhere near the same level. I scored the fight 49-46. In Diaz's previous fight with Penn he lost the first RD when Penn was fresh and outstruct Diaz then Penn gassed in the 2nd which caused the fight to turn to what Diaz likes which is a slugfest in each others face and he beat Penn but it didn't work against Condit due to Condit's INSANE cardio.
just for the record...when people talk about attacking on the breaks...doing something when spinning off the cage...instead of just pushoff and run, they mean this kind of thing: This content is protected but instead, we got (full on sprint): This content is protected
