This might look and read like a slaughter, but it was a hard and fast fight by both guys. The one clean punch from Vitor did some serious damage, and I kinda think the stats might be misleading. I am wondering of 1/7 means 1 of 7 shots landed CLEAN, because I am positive Vitor did more than one strike of damage. So perhaps those are partially-landed strikes that still affected Condit, just no where near as much as the one clean one. Anyways, Condit capitalized on his chances and didn't let up, giving him a huge win here.
