    I gained more respect for him after the GSP fight but I think Condit will win this fight prolly a close decision

    Yeah, hunter b is still an idiot for what he said about my post on renzo and Almeida, but Condit is an awesome fighter. And it'd be a shame to see Hardy beat him and get a title shot before him. But if Hardy is better then it needs to happen anyway. I think Carlos' only real flaw is he is a little slower on some things standing than Hardy. But he is nasty once he gets going. Condit seemed to have a rubber guard in his last fight but I'd like to see him do more with it in his next fight.

    I like the guy, I don't know what it is about people turning their noses up to people they conceive as ****y. Cockiness is just confidence on speed.

    I like hardy the best of the brits or maybe hathaway. I think hardy will win this match as he will be just as stubborn at home as he was against GSP. I somewhat agree with sapizo80 but mostly disagree in that the brits are being pampered with matchup styles yes but GSP could not make easy work out of hardy as proven in their match. I bet we will rarely if ever in the UK see bisping vs vitor and hardy vs fitch as they will want the the not easily pleased, stubbornly patriotic brits to keep a strong fanbase with one of their own for $$$$$$$$!!!!!!!

    No offense to the brits by the way, I just find you guys get easily bored and will find another sport where your homegrown do well like in soccer per say.

    MMA is growing over here. I been into UFC Pride Cagerage etc for years and years now. The real problem is serious training camps where a student can go and learn from world class fighters in all areas of the sport. When it comes to boxing we are up there with the greats of USA and Russia, but sadly with MMA we are years behind.



    I can guarantee in 20 years from now MMA will have a few more top level Brits in the picture as facilities grow over here and talent gets spotted and pushed through. Problem with UFC now though is any new organisation that may come about will have any serious talent pinched by DW unless they have serious financial backing, but since cagerage i dont see any major UK MMA org atmo.

    I did not mean any disrespect. I am not stating brits suck at mma, just look at Irelands mma record. All I am stating is Dana knows that english pride will slash at the money he can make if their fighters loose at home. Many english will stop watching just like in Ireland if they have no homegrown to cheer for. This is why Vitor will not fight Bisping in UK.

    Some brits train in the states. But Hardy said himself of course there are some wrestlers that go to England to help out, but british fighters have to go out and find it and learn it. That's why he's been training in Cali. lately. Some of the brits are doing well with the coaches that have flown out there. But no wrestling backgrounds in england is no reason to think they can't learn later. Some fighters don't practice wrestling till they start training mma. And it is a skill that can be learned at any point in life. It's nice to do it from childhood. But it isn't hopeless if they have to pick it up later.

    He may have become a better fighter but i think he missed the classes where shaolin monks teach the fighters how to become humble and respectful in life, and not act like a ****y little brit.

    what does that make sonnen and Koscheck if Hardy is regarded that bad?



    He isn't that ****y compared to many, he was humble after losing to GSP if you have watched any of his interviews.

    Sounds like you a britt, by the way it is xenophobia not xenophilia, is'nt English your first language??

    Dan was humble after lossing the fight not before the fight, after getting ass wooped no one seems to be ****y because they realize the other fighter is better than them. And this posting is about Dan ****y not sonnen or koscheck.

    Regarding his last comment (no limits ... figure out a way to succeed), ill believe it when hear he's hired a wrestling coach instead of crying about how boring a ground game is.

    If you compare skills there pretty even.I like Condit but Outlaws superior stand up will give him a quick KO for this fight.And groung game is not boring unless your doing constant takedowns and lay an pray...
