I'm done with MMA, i'll admit it was fun while it lasted, but if you're going to count running as a "gameplan" You're out of your mind. MMA rules clearly state that running is prohibited, not to mention, they don't even pay the fighters enough! good move on Nicks behalf, good bye.

My flawless logic suggest that we all quit watching MMA and start watching full metal jousting.
Tapology? More like Joustology.

@DelRose Actually it does mean he won because who has the interim belt?! (This coming from a Diaz fan.)

@delrose Funny how you bring up biased decisions yet your too hard-headed to just accept that your fighter lost.  I know how you feel, just chill out.  If Kos would have lost I probably would have reacted the same way

I'm unsatisfied. It's just not a clear ending... It's like reading a really good book and finding out that the last chapter has been ripped out.

It definitely would have been cool if there were a few more rounds.

@Fresno if you would have reacted the same way if Kos lost, then why are you telling @Delrose to chill out?

I meant I would have been pissed and not agreed with the decision.  But I wouldn't have vented my feelings like he is.  I just worded it weird I guess.

@DelRose, Your casual fandom of MMA is more suited to the Yahoo MMA community. Over there they think Brock Lesnar threw the fight against Velazquez and Reem...but they don't give a reason why.

@Wolfman, It's easy to win when they feed you scrubs and jobbers! That's how a guy gets to be 64-0 by the time he gets on the PPV Main Card. =D

@ DelRose compustrikes prove the win too bro I was there live Diaz did a bunch of worthless thug taunting while Condit had his own gameplan, If you think counter-striking with more strikes is running dude clean those bottle lens re-watch the fight this is MMA anything can happen

I think people percive this fight in not what was done but in showcased abilities. Diaz showed he was confident in his and for the most part he could avoid Condit while punching him with great accuracy. The problem is he didn't do it enough. It's no a skill contest. You still have to fight.

*** does Carlos Condit running have to do with Nick Diaz not getting paid enough.  This thread is moot.

Walking forward with you leg pinned to the ground like Frankenstein's right hand man does not win you a fight. That's not "octagon control". And neither is yelling at your opponent. Condit won fair and square.

If thats the way your gonna be, then good redince. Why did you even post this thread? Was it because you felt the need to argue for no reason. You obviously dont like MMA if your just gonna give up. Get outa here and give everybody some relief
