Who will Condit fight next?

i think he may wait for the title shot if he's offered because Kos and Shields are coming off losses and Penn and Fitch have unfinished business and other than that there's really no contenders coming off wins for him to face. Maybe Brenneman but hes not anywhere near Condit's level.

It should absolutely be Fitch , Fitch beating Penn realistically doesn't warrant him a title shot after a bad performance to get him a draw against a man GSP whooped twice and utterly destroyed Fitch himself. BJ has too hype around him 2 loses to Edgar and GSP he needs 4-5 big wins before a shot in the WW division , Fitch really just needs 1 win.

 

Condit is 12-1 in his last 13 fights with 24 finishes if I am not mistaken , last 4 wins against Ellenberger , Hardy , Kim and Rory 4... big wins 3 finishes. He's 1 fight away and that needs to be against a very strong wrestler to solidify him as a imminent threat against GSP...Fitch really deserved a rematch after 5 straight wins and his ridiculous record in the UFC , easily a top 10 pound for pound fighter no matter how much you hate him ( so is Shields ). So I say , Jon Fitch vs Condit is the most understandable matchup for the next title shot maybe this doesn't warrant the most exciting fights that could be paired or maybe you wont want to admit you are scared Fitch will "blanket" Condit but this is the most deserved and necessary fight for the next title shot.

When exactly did Fitch beat Penn? Last I heard it was a draw, which looks better for the natural LW than it does for the regular WW. Fitch needs more than one win.

Both Penn and Sanchez are better fighters at WW. Even though Penn beat Sanchez' date=' [b']I believe that at WW Sanchez can beat Penn.[/b]

 

I said it should be Condit vs. GSP, because he is top contender. But what I want to see is Penn vs. Sanchez at WW. Condit vs Johnson or Swick.

 

I don't see Penn ever losing to Sanchez. I said that before the first fight and I'll say it again now.

As soon as Fitch heals, he will rematch Penn. So, those 2 are realistically off the table, as far as this discussion is concerned.

 

BJ knows full well that he looked bad against Fitch and wants to avenge that in everyone's eyes.

 

Shields erred in taking the Ellenberger fight. Shields should have asked for Carlos Condit. Everyone would have liked to see those 2 settle the argument of who deserved to rank higher.

 

I strongly believe that Carlos Condit will be next in line for a title shot after GSP/Diaz.

 

Carlos will ask for GSP and probably get offered a title shot, which well please everyone here. If not, then there is no justice in the system.

 

I'd love to see Condit fight GSP, Diaz, Penn and Shields. In time, he will fight them all. The only question is the order.

 

At this moment, since GSP, Diaz, Penn, Sanchez, Shields are all committed elsewhere, and BJ is expected to wait for Fitch, that narrows down the list of names.

 

That leaves Koscheck, Alves, Serra, Nate Diaz, John Hathaway. I'd like to see him fight Kos, and if not him, then Hathaway.
