Prediction: correct Condit   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 3  

Another reason I'm picking Carlos Condit, is because I don't want to see DHK win by turning it into a boring ass fight.

Karo Parysian is the same style of fight, but his fights aren't boring.

uhhhh yeah well you cant really beat condit in an exciting fight unless the judges screw him. so making it a boring fight is how itll be if it goes DHKs way

"u all are picking with ur hearts...
RULE 1 OF PICK CLUB......do not talk about pick club.
RULE 2 OF PICK CLUB......do not talk about pick club
RULE 3 OF PICK CLUB......USE UR ****N HEAD!

as a nate diaz fan...DYK is a physical BEAST...takes you down and holds u there....and holds u there....and holds u there....and if Rory Macdonald could do it, I KNOW DYK CAN....but i still dont like em"

I disagree strongly with some assertion that because Macdonald did it, Kim can. Macdonald is larger, faster and much better all around then Kim. There not comparable, and Mac got TKO by condit........and Macdonald has much better stamina then mister Kim. Or are you forgetting he gassed against the much smaller Diaz. If he gasses like he did against Diaz he getting knocked out and thats a fact.

Prediction: wrong Kim   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

Rory is probably the MOST OVERRATED fighter i have seen in a while.

Has everyone forgot that he got ROCKED badly by the ****en Joker and BARELY BARELY edged Nate the first two rounds

Kim is better and much much more proven than Rory by much better comp in general.
and Kim is a physical beast he was the main training partner for Okami in Japan and we all know Okami is one of the biggest strongest MWs out there.

If Kim doesn't gas I honestly dont see how he loses.


NOT TO MENTION people forget that Kim differs from other top game wrestlers/judokas in that his ground game is nasty enough that he trains with ****EN Robert Goddamn Drysdale.

Condit will not sub him. I am sure of that Kim is way too strong and TOO SAVVY on top.

Prediction: wrong Kim   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

and Condit is just not athetlic/strong enough to do good against wrestlers/judoka.
hes been ragdolled by kapmann,ellenberger,rory,miura,shields etc etc

the only way he beats wrestler is by using his superior BJJ against guys like Ellenberger and Rory. By sweeping them and taking their backs.

But people forget how nasty of a grappler Kim is.

Kim is not the typical wrestler with NO BJJ. He is an incrediblt well rounded grappler in the vein of a jake shields type fighter. Not a Rick story type thats a turtle off his back with basic level BJJ.

this is the big mistake people are making here. Condit will not sweep Dong. Nate had literally NO success against Kim from his back nor has ANYONE else with a supposedly Nasty Guard game.

Look at the TJ GRANT fight to see what Kim does to high level grapplers. He dominates them because not only does he have that judoka base but he has BJJ skills/knowlege to know what to do.


seriously if he get train all out with a guy like Robert Drysdale there is no way in hell condit subs him off his back.

I mean its possibly if condit rocks him first or something or Kim is gassed. but he will never sub a 100 percent Kim.
NOT possible

Hard fight to predict but Kim's ground game is going to be too much for Condit.

Ellenberger was able to.  I think Jake won that fight.  If Condit can keep it standing, he will win.  But his TDD is horrible.

I dont think Kim would be able to get Ellenberger down at all ... I mean he had trouble with Brown and Diaz and they are smaller weaker guys...

I'd really like to see an improved Condit show good takedown defense and take it to the next level here, but I'm not confident enough it will happen. DHK is a handful.

That is one of Condit's most glaring weakness... his TDD.  This is a bad match up for Condit imo.
