Carlos Condit releases statement after difficult #UFCGlendale loss

Carlos Condit has been a perennial welterweight for the past decade, having fought the best the sport has had to offer inside the 170lbs weight class, Condit has been close to UFC Gold in the division several times, but never actually been the UFC Undisputed Champion of the World at the Welterweight division.

Last weekend Condit returned to action at UFC Glendale to face Alex Cowboy Oliveira who took the fight on 2 weeks notice as a last minute replacement when Condit’s original opponent Matt Brown was forced out of the bout due to injury.

Condit fought a much closer fight than his bout with Neal Magny whoever the result didn’t change, and Condit suffered a 2nd round submission loss to Oliveira dropping his overall record of just 3 wins against 7 losses during his last 10 fights.  Many fans are wondering if it is time for the Natural Born Killer Carlos Condit to retire.

Post choke out, where the fuck am I , WTF happened, feeling kinda warm and fuzzy , hope I didn’t just piss my shorts on live TV , thousand yard stare. I’ve posted plenty of pictures looking like a Badass. Triumphant and powerful… But here’s the flip side, crumpled and weak in defeat. Rough day at the office 😐 Fuck it though, I had fun. I trained my ass off and I came to fight. This is what leaving it all out there looked like on Saturday. Much respect to my opponent and his team. Thank you for taking the fight on short notice. Congratulations and best of luck in the future. I don’t know what’s next guys… I still love this game, and most days I still feel that fire, I absolutely love what it do, but maybe my time has passed. I don’t know the answer. this is what I know, this is my passion. I will never stop training, and If that leads me back to the the octagon, you know I’ll try to make it bloody for ya. Right now I’m looking forward to summer shenanigans with my sons and to expanding @hundredhandscoffee .
