What if Condit didnt 'run' against Diaz?

[acmuaythai]

This isn't a who won or bashing the way Condit got the decision thread, Im just wondering who you think would of won if Condit came out uber-aggressive like he usually does? After all, the reason people were so excited about this fight is because Condit's the only ww (probably) who can match Nick Diaz for aggressiveness/cardio etc

Thoughts?

he wouldn't have lost half his fanbase then.

 

[Shadow Box]

Then we would of seen an amazing fight. Diaz by TKO.

he wouldn't have lost half his fanbase then.

but he would have lost the fight...and I love condit.

Pretty much, and Sherdog would be a much nicer place to be at.

Condit already admited post presser, "Diaz would be up here, not me" if he went toe to toe.

Didn't see that. I think Condits right.......but it would of been a hell of a fight while it lasted.

Ah, I see we've entered the alternate reality of "what-ifs" the Nick Diaz fans depend upon greatly.

What if Diaz went for a takedown in round 1 instead of round 5? What if Diaz cut off the cage a little bit? What if he didn't get picked apart while just walking around talking shit for 5 rounds?

Inquiring minds want to know...

What if Diaz actually moved his feet and landed cleanly on Carlos?

Diaz did go for a couple of takedowns early and got shaken off like it was nothing.

FOTY candidate and probably winner.

What if Nick was Canadian?

Not a Diaz fan at all. Not even a Condit fan really. Just remember why i was so stoked for the fight in the first place.

 

[atxmmafan]

well now you can find out cause hes still fighting gsp. and will likely loose worse than condit

 

[Gotosleepho]

He didn't want to trade in the pocket with Nick because Nick's combination punching is superior. He wanted to keep a little distance to land kicks and punches. You don't want to get swarmed by Nick and fall into his game.

That was a great fight!

But yeah, it would have been greater if Diaz had just tried to do something a little different, since what he was doing wasn't working...

What if Diaz had ever won a fight against a top ten fighter? clowns.

Not getting that specific, just wondering if people thought Condit could match Diaz for aggressiveness and cardio. Would we have seen a 3-4 round Diaz vs Daley?
