He was the next logical choice, so I'm not surprised. Would've liked for TJ Grant to get that title shot, but it is what it is. Completely out of his control. Should Gilbert Melendez beat Diego Sanchez, he'll most likely face TJ Grant for the next shot.

Condit/Brown is one sexy fight. I think this fight potentially could be amazing.

Eh. I'm not as excited as others. Easy fight for Condit as far as I'm concerned.

I do think Condit will win, but I think Brown is a very exciting fighter.

Brown/Condit should be a lot of fun. That's the fight they should make too. I remember hearing that Brown was rumoured to fight Saffiedine. Glad they went with Condit.

This honestly looks like it may be card of the year so for to me. Uncle Creepy, Urijah, Condit AND Showtime on the same card.. And on free TV!

Saying that this card had a complete overhaul is an understatement.

still a fairly solid card for free TV, but I vastly prefered the original.

Urijah absolutely handled McDonald. He completely controlled him in the first round and caught him once where I thought he rocked him, but he just lit him up in the second and closed it out in vintage Urijah fashion. Loved the fight and they need to give him the winner of Cruz vs Barao. I personally think Faber beat Cruz at 132, just not by a big enough margin. So I'm pulling for the rubber match with those 2 but I expect it to be relatively difficult for Cruz to win after being away for so long. Either way, Faber is 4-0 in 2013 and he just made it abundantly clear that the difference between #2 and #3 in the bantamweight division is astronomical.
