Report: Carlos Condit signs WEC contract extension
by MMAjunkie.com Staff on Apr 27, 2008 at 10:41 am ET
World Extreme Cagefighting welterweight title-holder Carlos Condit (22-4), one of the few world top-10 170-pounders not fighting in the UFC, has signed a contract extension with the WEC.

The news comes from USATODAY.com.

Terms of the contract were not disclosed, though Condit confirmed that he had just one fight remaining on his previous deal.

Condit (22-4), who joined the WEC after fighting for organizations such as Rumble on the Rock and Pancrase, defeated John Alessio for the title at WEC 26 in March 2007. He's since made two successful title defenses -- against Brock Larson at WEC 29 and Carlo Prater at WEC 32.

He's now won seven straight fights, and none of his 22 victories have gone to decision.

Condit, who's been vocal about wanting to unify the WEC and UFC titles, has not been scheduled for his next fight.

I would really like to see how he would fair against some of the top 170lb fighters in the UFC...

condit vs. diego would be a nice fight. if ufc does bring some wec guys in, condit should be at the top of the list.

That would be a nice test for both buys.

Would be a huge fight if they ever held an event in Albuquerque, which I doubt they ever will do to the size of the city... I do think however, Diego would be too much for Condit.
