Good stuff here, especially at the end when Condit KO’s a U.S. soldier while “demonstrating some standup.” Condit will be in action on August 3 against Hiromitsu Miura at WEC 35, defending his WEC welterweight championship.
“Hit me as hard as you want to be hit”
Classic. Good for the fool who thought he could outstrike a WEC WW champion. The male ego and the notion that no other man can do better than you. Was it just because he was in the armed forces???? Confidence is a good thing, but an ego can get you KTFO
Good Stuff..
Condit is not the most intimidating looking guy if you haven’t seen him fight. I think the guy just fucked with the wrong nerd.
Always love that warning “hit me as hard as you want to be hit” as if a soldier in front of his buddies isn’t going to try and knock out the champ. hahah. Outstanding Video and good on Carlos for making the trip.
Always support the troops.
Good for you Carlos.
Carlos is bad ass in the ring and out of it. What a class act.
As far as the KO, hell, ego aside, maybe the guy just wanted a good scrap.
That’s cool. Good to see the WEC put something like that together for some of the troops.
It’s been said already, but ‘hit me as hard as you want to get hit’ is a great line!! You gotta be ready for the head kick soldier!!!! Cool for that guy though. How many guys can say they got to spar with a champion?
nice video. It’s produced by zuffa to. Even looks good watchin it via iPhone
