Carlos Condit lost a very close split decision to Robbie Lawler at UFC 195 for the welterweight title, and although has considered retirement, now is eager to get a rematch with Lawler, ideally at UFC 200:
“It’s a little crazy right now. There’s an argument that could be made for a lot of different guys getting a title shot,” Condit said. “I think I have one of the strongest arguments but it’s kind of crazy right now.”
In a perfect world, Condit wants to get a call offering him the rematch with Lawler as part of the historic UFC 200 card set for July 9 in Las Vegas.
All of the rumors about Lawler’s next title defense seem to point to that show and Condit would love nothing more than the chance at redemption as his opponent.
“I would be stoked. That’s definitely something that I would shoot for. That would be ideal,” Condit said about fighting Lawler at UFC 200. “I don’t think anybody would be sad about them making that matchup. I understand there’s other fights that might want to make and that’s basically want they told me, but I’m going to stay in shape.
