I like the end, “Its gonna be a dog fight.”
idk wether to go to the movies and watch it in 3d or stay @ home smoke and drink my ass off and enjoy this fight,,,, LETS GO NICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Where you at Georges?!
“first time in three years the ufc will have a new ww champion”. I don’t understand this interim thing.. So the ufc will have a new ww champion while gsp is out with an injury? It just sounds dumb to me and doesn’t sound like a real title fight. Someone explain?
The winner will be the champ, and as soon as GSP has recovered he gets first chance to win it back I guess?
WOW, you guys are some RETARDS, I tell ya…
Do your home work!!!
Interim means that the current Champion did not LOSE his title to another fighter and does not affect his record as champion. If GSP beats the Interim champ then his record will still stay at 5 defenses or whatever it is now. BUT if GSP stays inactive long enuff for the Interim to defend his belt then it becomes official and GSP loses his record as champion and has to start ALLLLLL over again to try to catch Andersons record haha
Basically, “UFC Welterweight Champion Substitute”! LOL
interim tittle is put into play when ever the champion cannot defend his belt within a yrs time, so he doesnt have to vacate the tittle
if the champion is out for an extent period of time, between 7months-longer Dana white will bring out the interim title for the two top level fighters in that respective weight class, in this case its Carlos Condit and Nick Diaz. the reason he does this is so that the division itsself does not stop! so now that diaz and condit fight for the Interim the winner obviously fight GS,so superbowl weekend when we know who will ultimately challenge GSP. But now with the interim belt around either condit or diaz’s waist we can set up who we want to be the next #1 contender. with GSP injured for almost a year he totally stalls the division if not for the INTERIM… hope this helps
wow thxx for stating the total obvious….this is a mma fight most people on here watch ufc…even though this has never ever ever happened before….wait…it did happen and big nog was interem champ also….
an shane carwin interem also
…and frank mir, shane carwin…
its obvious to you but the Dak guy asked what it ment to have an interim title out there and i answered with- its just out there so that what ever division needs it is not stalled. dont b a dick haha.
Thank you. They just didn’t make it that big a deal for the hw interim
In other words Condit or Diaz will be a paper champ until the true champ returns.
Until the King returns!!! GSP!!!!
nick is going put the pressure on and finish condit in the 4th or 5th….the only wau condit will win this is if it is stopped from a cut….the doctor is condit only chance,,i think condit will take round 1 and round to will be close,,,but then nick will use is pressure and take condit out
WAAAARRRRRRRRRRRR DDDDDIIIIAAAAAZZZZZZZZ
It’s going to be a war but I think Condit has a slight edge.
