UFC interim welterweight champion Carlos Condit knows that to be the man, you’ve got to beat the man.
But if that “man” is named Georges St Pierre, everything becomes complicated.
On November 17 in Montreal at UFC 154 GSP will make his return after almost 20 months from his last match against Jake Shields at UFC 129.
On December 7, 2011, it was in fact revealed St-Pierre had sustained an ACL injury to his right knee, forcing him out of the bout with Nick Diaz. Diaz lost to Carlos Condit at UFC 143, in a fight for the UFC Interim Welterweight Championship.
“He’s the best in the world. He’s one of the best the sport has ever seen,” Condit admitted.
But if GSP is “the man”, ‘The Natural Born Killer’ is

MMA News – Will we see Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson vs Glover Teixeira?
After having badly battered Fabio Maldonado at UFC 153 in Rio de Janeiro (= Teixeira vs Maldonado), Glover Teixeira called out Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson, but only if the former champion is actually ready and wants to fight: “I don’t care.

Video METAMORIS Pro Jiu Jitsu: results and Full fights videos
“Matamoros” (in Spanish) is Moor-slayer and is the name given to the Christians who persecuted Jews and Muslims during the Reconquista of the fifteenth century, but in our case we are speaking about the best Pro Jiu Jitsu practitioners of the world: Metamoris (thanks to JiuJitson for the correction). These superfights have different rules from the common BJJ rules: the time limit is 20 minutes instead of 10 min (as usually in the black belt fights) but the most interesting thing is that it is possible to win only by submission! If there is no submissions (or disqualifications) the fight ends in a tie.
The second event of Metamoris Pro Jiu-Jitsu Invitational, METAMORIS II, is scheduled to take place June 9, 2013 at the Pauley Pavilion in Los Angeles, and it is headlined by the main event Shinya Aoki vs Kron Gracie.
All the Metamoris full fight videos are free embeddable videos hosted on Youtube and they were not uploaded by AllTheBestFights, to report it please visit the Youtube’s channel where the videos are hosted.
