wec-logo1.jpg WEC welterweight champion Carlos Condit has signed an extension with the Zuffa-owned fight promotion, according to a report by USAToday.com.

Condit revealed the news during Saturday’s UWC show in Washington D.C.-area that was headlined by Pete Spratt’s decisive victory over Jason Von Flue in a welterweight clash.

Nicknamed the “Natural Born Killer,” Condit is undefeated in four career fights in the WEC and is 22-4 overall in his MMA career.

His most recent fight was a first round submission over Carlo Prater during the WEC’s February show in Albuquerque, N.M.

Condit, one of the most underrated 170 pound fighters in the world, holds career victories over the likes of Frank Trigg, Renato “Charuto” Verrisimo, Ross Ebanez, and John Alessio.

According to the USA Today report, Condit had just one fight remaining with the WEC before signing the extension.

    he really is underrated..
    and that’s a SHAME..
    he’s got great skill and technique.. and is a straight up beast in the cage.. completely well-rounded.. devistating kicks.. and great sub’s.. he’ll be champ for a WHILE..

    Agree with all of the above…BUT..resigning with WEC means less than stellar challengers. I was hoping to hear he was headed to the UFC
