Condit is a really dangerous fight, but based on the first fight it's one he should win this time. Rory's 3rd round is still a little iffy too; that's when Condit stopped him and he pretty much stopped fighting in the 3rd round of the Penn fight.

Perhaps a fair question in regard to Rory's gas tank and his 3rd round performances. Although, he was able to keep pace against Nate at UFC 129. Rory definitely slowed his pace and his attack against Penn in the 3rd round but I'm not sure if that was gas tank related, or if he just realized he was so far ahead on the scorecards and coasted it in. He was attacking effectively, just perhaps he didn't feel the urgency to close Penn out, especially knowing how hard it is to put Penn away.
I think either Kos or Condit are good match ups to test Rory next. I'm surprised Kos is that eager to fight a guy that will probably jab his way to another broken orbital bone.
