Although we’re almost 10 days away from UFC 143 and the interim World Welterweight Championship match between Nick Diaz and Carlos Condit, the stage has been set for one of the biggest matchups in recent history of the Ultimate Fighting Championship to break all the records and make it a spectacle. This will be the first time that Condit will enter the Octagon since he decimated Dong Hyun Kim in July last year and according to the Natural Born Killer, he is eagerly anticipating the match and is looking forward to claiming the title.

In a recent interview, Condit made it clear that there was no love lost between him and Diaz, who many pundits and media personalities believe to be the best and pure fighter in the division after Georges St Pierre and all Condit is focused on at the moment is claiming the championship belt. Although he had never met his opponent before, Carlos Condit believes that Diaz has a severe attitude problem and he should be grateful for the position that he is in at the moment, for being in the ring and getting paid to do what he loves.

Condit has kept himself fit in these interim months, where he has seen opportunities appear and pass him by at regular intervals and he is also open about the possibility about the bout going into five rounds, which will happen for the first time in his career. Condit admits that he had been training long and hard considering the possibility of the match going into five rounds and he also added that even when fighting three rounds, he always felt that he had a round or two left in him.

Whatever happens, the rivalry between two of the biggest names in the Welterweight division, Carlos Condit and Nick Diaz are bound to give the audience a spectacle and once in a lifetime experience.
