Lets get something straight. Condit didn't have good footwork. Playing keepaway isn't footwork. Footwork is bobbing and weaving, changing angles, being evasive, etc. Keeping away entirely isn't footwork, its running.

Condit somehow landed the more strikes while running?  Nah, what happened was he moved out of the way from Diaz trying to engage, and then would hit Diaz.  If Diaz had better footwork, he would have been able to corner Condit easily.  Diaz can't handle a guy that has okay lateral movement, that's the problem.

No one could've cornered Condit. You can't stop someone from running. I don't know how many times it has to be said. No one can stop a guy from running.

sugar ray did the same thing? he made opponents chase him tell they got tired. You are acting like this is new in combat sports. You most def can get them. Diaz was being a bitch taunting and running straight like a bull. There have been lots of fights with fighters trying to get away and it ended with them knocked on their asses or an easy take down, as they are off balance. anyways Diaz was an idiot and smoked weed before the fight so would of been a NC either way.
 i smoke weed myself but for $200,000 think i could take a break.

You can clinch and try to drag them to the ground. But corner someone? Not happening.

This sets a bad precedent. Running away should never be seen as a winning strategy.

Diaz is an idiot. For sure he deserves that loss now that the facts have come out. But running away should never be seen as a winning strategy. It makes the sport look like a joke when refusing to engage doesnt cost you points.
