Can't see this not going Condit's way. He landed way more, particularly with kicks, throughout the fight. Diaz obviously controlled the octagon, but it didn't really matter in terms of strikes. The take down in the final round was the most significant thing Diaz did the whole fight.
 
Nick did win octagon control for at least 4 of the 5 rounds. I don't know how much of the score that makes up though.



Look at the mma judging criteria. Landing more shots doesn't always mean you win.

HAHAHAHA, backing an opponent up to only have them slip and punch you on the way out doesn't constitute octagon control.

CONDUIT. EASILY. Like I said.
 
Last 3 fights end with boos. This card was middling. The fights weren't all wrestlefucks but not exciting either for the vast majority. That's 2 pretty blah cards in a row. Hopefully next is better but I doubt it.

I have nothing against Condit I'm glad he won and I knew he was winning on points. I was just stating an argument for if Diaz did win that it would be because the judges put more weight into octagon control than I thought.
 
Who cares who won that was a boring as shit fight


I was trying to think of how I felt about this fight..... You said it perfect. I was playing on my iPad the whole time, there was barely anything good enough for me to look away from plants vs zombies
