Now at UFC 154 St-Pierre and Condit finally going to unify the titles for the welterweight championship. This is the second time a champion vs champion scenario has played out in the welterweight divivision
In the main event, after Georges St. Pierre received a brutal head kick that almost finished the fight in the third round, the champion came back to win a unanimous decision 49-46. 50-45, and 50-45
This card was also promoted with Martin Kampmann vs Johny Hendricks as a number one contender fight, which Hendricks won by knockout in 46 seconds. However, Nick Diaz was then chosen instead to face GSP, for the welterweight championship at 158. Hendricks, who UFC president Dana White announced could be the number one contender after winning his previous fight with Josh Koscheck, will now fight Jake Ellenberger on the same card.
