Check out the blog this morning for a best and worst feature with UFC welterweight contender Carlos Condit. Check out the first article in the series on Chris Lytle while you're at it, which was published on Wednesday. The similarities between these two fighters is striking to behold, and I suspect the trend will continue as the series expands in the future.

Great interview with Condit...Love the fact the he feels euphoric after pissing dark brown and throwing up after a great fight! Condit is one of my all-time favorite guys to watch he always leaves it in the cage!

I was already missing the Condit vs Lytle fight big time and this is only going to make that feeling worse.  These two guys easily would have put on FotN and maybe even an early candidate for FotY.  I think Joe Silva will still make it happen.

Fighters like Carlos are a rare breed in the UFC these days.  He's winning fights, but with the mentality of wanting to go in there and really beat someone up.  He's not going in there just to get the win, he actually wants to fight.  I love fighters like these.  His fight with Rory MacDonald was incredible.  I'm a fan of Rory and was cheering for him big time, but that fight made me a fan of Carlos Condit as well.  The fact that he stood toe-to-toe with Dan Hardy and knocked him out is incredible too!  That knockout was insane!

You're getting interviews with some great fighters here and I'm loving it.  Another good one.

@Lynx I agree I was extremely excited for this fight and was sad to learn Condit had to pull out...it would have been an amazing fight of 2 top WW going at it for a legit shot at being the #1 contender.

@Piercedan hate to break the news to you but the Condit / Lytle fight is off. Condit had to withdraw with an injury.
