OH: UFC 143 Post-Fight Commentary From Fighters

What an interesting night of fights that was. I know I heard some complaints but I was thoroughly entertained by the fights at UFC 143. The main event most certainly generated a lot of tweets from fighters and there were a lot of other tweets throughout the other fights, too. Here is what everyone was saying.

Those Who Were Just fans Like the Rest of Us

Ronda Rousey: If I wanted to see a man run for 25 minutes I'd go to a track meet. Diaz is the real champ, what a bullshit fight

Miesha Tate: I thought Condit won the fight I know Diaz is pissed but Condit had a solid game plan that worked, I thought he won for sure

Tim Kennedy: I HATE judges! @ufc

Ian McCall: Well I was totally wrong with most my picks tonight ...

Josh Neer: Wow. Nick got robbed 4-1 diaz. Carlos was doing the Forrest Gump #runforestrun

Jason High: Take your ass and run some triathlons. See how much they pay you for coming in 112th place, Nick. #UFC143 / Luv ppl saying Condit shoulda just played to Diaz' game plan and stood in the pocket with him. Really tho...WTF is wrong with you? #UFC143

Miguel Torres: I score this fight 50-45 in favor of GSP. @ufc / If Jesus ate himself to 246 lbs, was a cage fighter, was american, & had an awesome mullet, he would be @RoyNelsonmma. / Herb Dean is the fucking man. #2points / Last time I seen a cock take a beating that bad was when my uncles rooster got mauled in Mexico. I feel so bad for Figueroa. @ufc

Mark Munoz: Diaz with the slap!! Crazy!! #ufc143 Pushing the pace! Diaz wins round 2! #ufc143 / Condit landed gr8 shots this round. He's also moving well! Condit round 4 #ufc143 not many guys winning rounds in later rounds vs Diaz / Gr8 fight! Think Diaz 4 rounds to 1. We'll see! #ufc143 / Here's the decision! Wow! Crazy decision! Condit wins via unanimous decision! Congrats Condit! #ufc143

Brian Bowles: I'm glad for condit WEC once again represents but he's got another level coming in george

Ryan Jimmo: Condit is clearly winning / Thinks its pathetic how they only show Diaz's highlights between rounds lol / Take that dick Diaz / Condit clearly won that, Diaz might of won 1 rnd. Lol / Not even a close fight / Poor loser / Big country=white kimbo slice / Big country is a reancarnate of hacksaw Jim duggin

Aaron Rosa: Condit is making this fight boring... yawn.. / Diaz got robbed

Javier Vazquez: Condit is in great shape / Condit is running away with this one / Diaz won the 5th but Condit won 3 rounds to 2 / I didnt think Koscheck won that fight :(

Sean Pierson: Condit sticking to the game plan!! #UFC143

Justin Edwards: Wow good fight so far. Right now IMO Diaz is ahead on the cards on @Ufc 143 / Ok on the @Ufc fight now maybe condit lol I take back what I just tweeted b4

Siyar Bahadurzada: Diaz is irritated and confused... Condit is doing a great job!!! / Perfect game plan by Condit! If he can do this the whole fight... / Condit is eating up Diaz with those legkicks!!!!!! / 3-1 Condit!!!!! Perfect execution of the game plan!!!!!! / Condit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! / 4-1 Condit!!!!!!!! Perfect performance!!!!!!! As I said the only way to beat Diaz was to confuse and irritate him!!!!!! / Listen guys... There is brawling, and there is scoring points! Diaz won hearts, Condit won gold! I know how striking counts, trust me! ;) / I was rooting myself for Nick Diaz, coz I think he's a great fighter and a warrior! But truth must be told! Good night Nick Diaz lovers! ;) /For the record, I think both GSP and Condit are boring champions who talk like robots! I rather see some exciting fighters wear that gold! / I want the NSAC to x-Ray Roy Nelsons face for an Iron plate instead of steroids test!

Duane Ludwig: I have @CarlosCondit 4-0 so far

Erik Koch: Man now I wanna fight! / Yes I am that guy ;)

Pat Barry: I KNOW THIS IS TERRIBLE BUT I LOVE THAT HE HELD HIS FOOT FOR 5 MINUTES AFTER THE BELL!!!!!! / Y'ALL BOUT TO BE UUUUUUUPSETETETETET!!! / I WASN'T LOOKING BUT I SWEAR I THOUGHT VERDUUUUME JUST SAID "I BOUGHT A DOG WITH MY DAUGHTER WHEN FEDOR WAS BORN" THAT FOOO 86 YEARS OLD!!! / PEOPLE WANT ME TO GO TO 205 AND THESE BIG BEEEEECHES IN THE OCTAGON NOW ARE 185. NO THANKS!!! FATPAT IS MY FRIEND!!!

Cub Swanson: I said don't sleep on Condit. My boy is Solid! @ufc

Brian Stann: So awesome watching @CarlosCondit work, best striker on team @jacksonsmma / @carloscondit won that fight in my opinion, so happy for him, put a belt around his waist!! He is a great person & father / Only been a few min but obvious improvements in Werdums striking!!! / That was a hell of a fight! My friend Henry looked great and will do well at 155, Riddle had great composure to make those adjustments

Aaron Simpson: Diaz wins that with takedown? / I dont know. Pulling for carlos #ufc143 / Condit!!!!!! #ufc143 @ufc

Joe Lauzon: Whatttttt?? #UFC143 / I eagerly await fight metrics for this fight... I thought Diaz won that all night long. / I see I was wrong on last night... I saw Nick going forward and Carlos backing up... and thought Nick was winning. #Biased / That being said, I would still MUCH rather watch someone like Diaz move forward than someone sit back, pick a shot and legit run. #UFC143 /

Alex Soto: Very impressed with Carlos Condit composure during the fight. He never lost sight of his goal to win

John Hathaway: interesting ufc card, really enjoyed the fights. Don't like the results? Same as last week, don't leave it to judges! / its a question of volume of strikes thrown, volume of strikes landed, avoiding damage vs pressure and forward movement.

John Dodson: Great job for @CarlosCondit for the win. Now lets see another great fight from him

Yves Edwards: I wanted Nick to win but there's no way Condit won 4 rds backing up. / Damn it Nelson!!! At least I know I can count on Nick Diaz to close the show!!! / I think I want Koshcheck to lose but I think he wins this one.

Steven Siler: Wow I guess I never know what to expect from @DiazBrothers209 at #UFC143

Eddie Wineland: Congrats @CarlosCondit! Looked great buddy!!

Jon Fitch: I think condit won / Wow best hvywt fight I seen in a while. Love Roy Nelson. Verdum is a giant. / Kos won 2 and 3

Joey Beltran: I had it even through 4 and Diaz stepped up to take the 5th. Carlos definitely had 3&4 but no way you can't give Diaz 1&2. Oh well goodnite / But stepping aside from being a Diaz fan, gotta give props to Condit for sticking to the gameplan and getting the W. goodnight for reals now

Diaz Brothers: Robbery

Tito Ortiz: I had a draw! #UFC143

Jake Ellenberger: Gr8 fights tonight, Congrats to @CarlosCondit on his victory!

Matt Mitrione: Did Nick Diaz really come out in jeans and brown socks? How do you not love this muuphhhukka!? @StreetMadeTeam

Ross Pearson: Big knee horrible cut but wow @StitchDuran done an amazing job on the cut of big country / Kos has the worst habit of pulling his shorts up in a fight, I notice him doing it all the time

Pat Schilling: Watching @UFC #143 on @UFConXboxLIVE and still can't believe I got to fight on that stage just two weeks ago. #Thankful
