As per the judges scorecards, yung 3rd round ang naging deciding round.
All judges gave Condit the 1st and 4th rounds
All judges gave Lawler the 2nd and 5th rounds
Only 1 judge gave Condit round 3.
I really feel sad for Condit. He's my favorite fighter. Sobrang taas ng fight IQ and ang galing sa striking --- yung strikes niya they come from all angles, and ang gaganda ng combinations. He's lost 4 of his last 6 fights, but those 4 losses were:
- to GSP, one of the top P4P fighters of all time
- to Hendricks, which was incredibly close
- to injury in the fight against Woodly
- to Lawler, which was even closer than the loss to Hendricks
One of the best fighters, imo. I hope he goes for at least one more run at the title.
