      ya this is going to be a good fight in the WW division forsure, pick a winner or don’t make that bet or keep your money the one true thing that this fight is going to provide is a battle… Neither one of these guys are a push over and will go at it in a vicious way imo, I’ve been looking forward to this match for sometime now, can’t wait

  • marvelknight4 says:

    I think Condit is good enough for the UFC. I hope he can work his way up and fight more top guiys.

  • gunslinger says:

    ya just too bad the hitman’s gonna “whack” the naturl born killer in his first official ufc fight…well im sure carlos can come back from 0-1 but im telling you kampmann is gona destroy him

  • marvelknight4 says:

    I hope Brock Larson wins, i want to see him do well in the octagon. He’s and awesome and exciting fighter.

    I hope that Miller beats the $hit out of Junie Browning. Browning sucks a$$.

    I’m sure that Jeremy Stephens is going to ko Gleison Tibau.

    Condit in the 3rd via tko

  • Turk says:

    I’m thinkn that Kampmann is going to be to strong for Condit honestly, but I want him to prove me wrong. If Carlos can get through this fight with a victory it would be a huge statement IMO.

  • Turk says:

    Damn, I just can’t wait to see a fight we were so spoiled with all the cards back to back it seems like an eternity since the last one. Anyone agree???

    • Justin says:

      Yeah, so many fights so close together, now a three and a half week layoff seems brutal. Even though half the people around here were complaining about the “weak” cards during that stretch of back to back events.

      • fr702 says:

        You can’t please everyone, some is always going to complain about something, hell its not like Affliction is picking up the slack are they, o and if you were able to catch DREAM or WVR recently, the layoff doesn’t seem that long because world wide there seems to be MMA every weekend, if it comes from pensecola or the city of Japan there is more outthere than the UFC (tho ofcourse the UFC is by far the best org in the world)

      • Justin says:

        I didn’t catch DREAM, but I did catch WVR and March Badness… but I watch the UFC on a 36″ TV… which makes it a lot different experience than the smaller screen I watch the other events on. We won’t go into why that screen is smaller ;)

      • timcat says:

        Man Justin did you just leave the door open on that last comment. I want to jack you a little but I better not.

      • Justin says:

        Crap… I guess I did leave that door wide open. Well, please remove your minds from the gutter before reading that.

  • OnlyTrue1 says:

    Any one know how much weight Condit cuts to get to 170. To me, he seems small for {170 in the UFC}. 170 by UFC fighters like Fitch, KOS Hughes Johnson.
