[Palma]

Who wins between these two champions?

gsp is better than condit in every single aspect- ex. faster, smarter, quicker, etc...weve all saw what occured when condit faced an elite fighters (jake shields)- he (condit) needs to step up the level of competition imho

[AndersonSilva]

wow ****** thread man shyt. are you serious look at the size difference. condit is prety damn skinny hes smaller then matt hughes look how GSP handled him in that last fight lol. what do you think will happen with him fighting condit?

I think condit would be a ragdoll, GSP would just throw him around in there.

its not a ****** thread- condit has the potential to overthrown GSP in my eyes (not now, but for sure in a couple of years)- heck ill bet the house on him against Hughes along with top ufc WW....stop hating on the dude

[vinnie7731]

as of right now, i think gsp wins easily, but like it was said above, in a couple of years with some tougher competition, conduit has a good chance.

lillb, if you think the thread is ******, then dont put your 2 cents in

[AndersonSilva]

sorry man thas just what i think seriously. GSP is a freak. no im not tryin to be Joe rogan haha. gut gsp is really strong i dont see condit controlling or doing anything with him at all

[Palma]

Condit and GSP actually train at the same camp (Jackson's MMA) so I am sure these two have sparred against one another several times behind closed doors. I know Condit is young, but he has some sick BJJ, much better than that of GSP in my opinion. But for-sure GSP has the upper edge in the stand up game. It would be a great match to see in the not too distant future I hope.

I do not know about you folks, but I really happy with the type of match ups the WEc have been putting together. Does anyone know if Joe Silva is also in charge of setting the fights up like he is in the UFC?

Thanks in advance!

Dude, you have no idea what you are talking about. Size is not the factor here! Condit has beaten some well known people in the past that are just as big if not bigger than Hughes in terms of physical size and stature.

WEC Champ Carlos Condit Considers Move to UFC

While 23-year old welterweight Carlos Condit (21-4) is looking forward to defending his WEC championship belt Wednesday against Carlo Prater (21-5-1), he has eyes set on stepping in to another Zuffa owned organization: the UFC.

Condit discussed his upcoming fight and future plans on Monday’s edition of TAGG Radio (, a partner site of MMAjunkie.com (.

“For right now, I like the WEC,” Condit said. “They treat me well. But definitely, I would like to, and do need to, take a step up in competition.“

The fight with Prater will be Condit’s third fight in a four-fight contract with the WEC. Condit said there has been some discussion about a fight for him in the UFC.

“I’m not exactly sure how it’s all going to work out with the WEC and the UFC under Zuffa and all that,” Condit said. “I kind of hear some talk and some rumors about me maybe doing some crossover bouts, or something like that.“

Condit, who is currently enjoying a six-fight win streak, has a limited amount of opponents available for him in the WEC. That would not be an issue in the UFC’s well-stocked welterweight decision, one of the deepest weight classes in the organization.

“I heard something about (Hayato “Mach”) Sakarai (31-7-2) may be coming,” Condit said. “They’re trying to fill out their roster, but I’m really not too sure.“

As for the fight at hand, Condit said he is “really excited” about the chance to headline an event in his hometown of Albuquerque, N.M.

“I couldn’t be more pleased, man,” Condit said.

This will be the second time Condit and PraTer have squared off. In their first match-up, in September of 2004, PraTer submitted a then-undefeated Condit. That fight also took place in Condit’s home town of Albuquerque, but Condit said the defeat will not be on his mind.

“For the most part, I’m just looking at this fight, and looking at the fact that he’s coming to take my belt, embarrass me in front of my hometown,” Condit said. “He’s a respectful guy. There’s nothing personal. There’s no vendetta. But on a professional level, there’s beef. He’s coming out and trying to take my gold. It don’t sit well with me.“

Condit and Prader’s fight is the main event of this Wednesday’s WEC card. The main card will be shown live on the Versus network beginning at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT.
