MmaCanada.net: If you are victorious over BJ Penn at 137 you will be next in line for the Welterweight title. Who would you rather fight for the Championship Georges St-Pierre or Nick Diaz?
Carlos Condit: OH… that’s kind of a tough question! Georges St-Pierre is part of Jackson’s camp so I don’t want to see him lose his title. But, on the other hand, I would rather fight Diaz for a couple different reasons. Mainly the fact that he’s not a team mate of mine so I’d like to bypass that whole… you know, any complications that would arise and also I’ve wanted to fight Diaz for a really long time. I think a fight between Diaz would be a very entertaining fight for the fans.
MmaCanada.net: Your next battle is about two months away but, have you given any thought to how you would like this fight to play out against the Prodigy?
Carlos Condit: Well you know… I want to win! (Laughs) I think I have a lot of different tools to make that happen. BJ is definitely the toughest guy that I’ve ever fought. But, in the past I’ve always risen to the occasion and the tougher the opponent the better I fight. So, this isn’t going to be any different.
