The main event of the UFC on FUEL TV 1 fight card that took place tonight (Wed., Feb. 15, 2012) at the Omaha Civic Auditorium in Omaha, Nebraska, featured Diego Sanchez returning to take on hometown boy Jake Ellenberger.
How important was this fight? Well, before the broadcast hit the air, UFC President Dana White told SB Nation's Ariel Helwani that it's entirely possible the winner would earn a title shot in the event Carlos Condit decides not to wait and Georges St. Pierre's recovery takes longer than expected.
This was kind of a big deal.
That's why it's so huge that Ellenberger managed to pick up such a hard fought victory after three rounds and 15 long minutes of action. "The Juggernaut" dominated the first two frames and survived a late surge from Sanchez to take a decision on scores of 29-28 across the board.
Was he good enough for UFC to want to book Carlos Condit vs. Jake Ellenberger part deux? We shall see.
As expected, the staredown was intense. Thankfully, it carried over to the fight, at least at the start. Ellenberger wanted to please his native fans with a big knockout early, throwing a haymaker in an attempt to get the party started sooner than we all thought.
Swing and a miss.
Somewhat surprisingly, Sanchez was tempered in his attack, far more patient than we're used to seeing him. It's not that he was tentative or even weary of Ellenberger's power. He simply stayed cool under the pressure of the moment.
Even when he rushed in and got caught with a big counter shot that put him on his ass. Thanks to that, Ellenberger definitely had round one on the scorecards.
It wasn't long into the second round when Sanchez's frustration started showing. His calm demeanor slowly started to fade in favor of a less-than focused scowl and pushing punches. His attacks became predictable and Ellenberger was reacting to them perfectly.
To mix it up nicely, "The Juggernaut" threw in a takedown late in the round, timed impeccably to shoot underneath a charging Sanchez. He also punished Diego with monster elbows that furthered the damage to "The Dream's" nose, which was already busted up big time at this point.
The stats? 23 ground strikes from Ellenberger, one from Sanchez.
They battled back and forth into the third, Sanchez slowly making his way back into the fight. He landed enough to open a cut on Ellenberger and even reversed a takedown into back mount where he ended the fight by unloading a ton of punches.
Ellenberger fought back to his feet and the bell sounded with the two men throwing wild haymakers.
Freaking awesome.
Sanchez fought valiantly until the very end but because of his dominance in the first two rounds, Ellenberger came away with a victory that could catapult him to a welterweight title shot.
Stay tuned.

great fight
respect to both of them
pride never die.
and now sanchez is shitting the bed
take it like a fucking man, diego
pride never die.
Ellen took it like a woman in the third
Diego was just being honest.
Even tho I initially acted like a small child, I have been forced to come to my senses. enzo-enormous is better at calling fights than I am, by far. I am a little immature but am working on it. Also, I love dudes and cant wait to get a reach around from the 209
most definitely. Diego poured it on in the third and ellenbergers cowardice went into auto pilot.He was scrambling for the takedown like a bum.pussy
The only thing Lance Storm buried was his penis...deep in his mom's crack.
Canadian authorities have said that Lance Storm has been improving as a son as of late.
In fact, police have said that he has "Been coming into his own".
What did Lance Storm sing to his mom for her birthday?...
We are family... tan tan tan tan (doing the jig)
Lancey boy held his own annual incest competition and yep you guessed it...he entered his mom
When a local reporter knocked on his door and asked lance Storm the whereabouts of his mother, he replied with much gusto 'mind your damn business, this is a FAMILY affair.'
Lance storm> Josef Fritzl
I think Diego damaged your brain while you last deep throated him.
It's all about the entertainment.
If you thought Ellenberger turned in a winning performance then you're a strange dude
There’s no honour in winning a fight after getting dominated in the last round. Hendo-Shogun anyone?

Same retard logic that Condit escaped from back control at the end of the fight.

Man,
you’re really pissed off about that Diaz match, huh? I mean if Nick had a win over a relevant fighter not on the brink of retirement, I could understand the disappointment, but c’mon, man. Nick’s just a gatekeeper.
Tito Ortiz = BJ Penn = Overrated, excuse-making frontrunner
Fitch clearly won round 2 and the fight against Penn
Sonnen clearly won round 1 and the fight against Bisping
Your opinion is worthless if you don't think Diaz is a very special fighter
And clearly don’t know anything about MMA except how to count 10-9s

Make a case for Diaz being a great and
very special fighter. Go over his resume and give it a try. Good luck!

you were too happy earlier unambig
nice to see the angry version back
you should totally twitter that on your facebook

Unfortunately the lesser fight goes on to fight another lesser fighter.

I don't mind him mentioning the ankle injury
He didn’t really use it as an excuse, just said it happened and he was glad he recovered and didn’t have to pullout.
I wonder how serious it could have been though for him to complete camp and compete in a few weeks time.

Typical 170 diego
Despite the appearance, he seems better at 170.

Jake Ellenberger is such a PUSS!
DID YOU SEE THAT? He went backwards sometimes and used a takedown. What a bitch!
All seriousness, great fight!

he pulled a half condit lol
bones jones will be the champ for a VERY long time

Yea people think that Jake is some perfect fighter. He’s not, not even close. But the dude brings some serious problems. He has very good wrestling, crazy strength and power in his hands. And is willing to brawl.
His submission defence is good enough.
If you gave Jake cardio and super technical punching, he would literally be unstoppable.
Just because a fighter has holes, doesn’t mean he’s garbage. Everyone has holes.
yea but who's silly enough to believe jake is garbage?

People who never watched him, and just became aware of the holes in his game after hearing people rave about him for months.
Pretty much 2/3 of this site. Not many people stay up on all of the top 10 guys, and just think everyone is a can.
yup..silly

Why not, book condit ellenberger 2.
But if ellenberger doesnt get it done in less than two rounds he is screwed.
by the mexicutioners #1 fan on Feb 15, 2012 11:02 PM EST via mobile reply actions
Yeah
I don’t think Jake really stands a chance against Condit. Not with his cardio.
Tito Ortiz = BJ Penn = Overrated, excuse-making frontrunner
Fitch clearly won round 2 and the fight against Penn
Sonnen clearly won round 1 and the fight against Bisping
last i check, he lost
Tito Ortiz = BJ Penn = Overrated, excuse-making frontrunner
Fitch clearly won round 2 and the fight against Penn
Sonnen clearly won round 1 and the fight against Bisping
repeat the 1st fight,
but this time, add in 2 more rounds for Condit, possibly 1 being a 10-8.
Tito Ortiz = BJ Penn = Overrated, excuse-making frontrunner
Fitch clearly won round 2 and the fight against Penn
Sonnen clearly won round 1 and the fight against Bisping
He can do a better job of avoiding it tho
I’d say Carlos wins the rematch, 5 round is to long for Jake
no guarantee that bomb will land again
The more complete fighter (condit) would be favorite

by letter19 on Feb 15, 2012 11:12 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
I agree, but that’s the reason they fight. Jake has the power to hurt anyone really badly. The further the fight goes on, the more likely the other guy will win though.
Doesn’t mean it’s set in stone that Condit can win. Jake could possibly go in and knock Condit out in the first.
Obviously,
anything can happen. We’re just being realistic.
Tito Ortiz = BJ Penn = Overrated, excuse-making frontrunner
Fitch clearly won round 2 and the fight against Penn
Sonnen clearly won round 1 and the fight against Bisping
of course..possibilities are endless

with his body type..good chance he wont
He has to pace himself better throwing to many power strikes

Jake has very good cardio actually. He just has a ton of muscle, and is way to explosive to be throwing 100% like that.
the cardio we speak of,
is the kind where your performance doesn’t suffer greatly throughout the fight. Jake obviously has a problem with that.
Tito Ortiz = BJ Penn = Overrated, excuse-making frontrunner
Fitch clearly won round 2 and the fight against Penn
Sonnen clearly won round 1 and the fight against Bisping
Hes also fighing Diego Sanchez
A guy who loves to push the pace. A lot of people would have gassed a little.
You mind your own damn business.
by jestermarcus on Feb 15, 2012 11:40 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
Diego didn’t really push the pace though. I wish he did. He didn’t get comfortable until the third, he was GOING IN! To bad he got taken down, but the reverse and was dominating Jake from top control. Diego was finding his range though with his striking too.
Oh yeah.
I’d really love to have seen a 5 rounder between these two. I think Diego would have pulled it off. But I really wanna see Ellenberger and Hendricks.
You mind your own damn business.
by jestermarcus on Feb 16, 2012 12:47 AM EST via mobile up reply actions
And you must be new to watching Jake, Jake didn’t show anything new today. Except he looked a bit more composed if anything.
I am really wondering if he broke his right hand
He stopped using it all together in the third

He shook it off at about 3:15 of the 3rd and then led with an elbow, a left then got taken down.

hopefully it's hurt enough to where he doesn't get the title shot
Tito Ortiz = BJ Penn = Overrated, excuse-making frontrunner
Fitch clearly won round 2 and the fight against Penn
Sonnen clearly won round 1 and the fight against Bisping
And then Hendricks Condit is set perfectly. I can’t believe they put him with Koscheck, what is Joe thinking?
like i said before,
it’s nothing for them to scratch the koscheck fight. Did you pay any attention to the GSP/Diaz/Condit rodeo?
Tito Ortiz = BJ Penn = Overrated, excuse-making frontrunner
Fitch clearly won round 2 and the fight against Penn
Sonnen clearly won round 1 and the fight against Bisping
There would be absolutely no reason for them to do so though? Nothing happened tonight that that would occur. Your making mountains out of mole hills for no good reason.
For an injury, sure, but they don’t switch things unless it’s a big problem.
They didn’t even want to switch out Maynard after his abysmal fight against Diaz, and the only reason they didn’t give it to Maynard is because he didn’t want them.
You’ve been watching this shit long enough, you know how they operate.
Nothing about tonight suggests that Jake shouldn’t get a shot, at all.
Again,
you’re not getting my point. Not saying I strongly feel Hendricks should get it over Jake. Just saying that he’s RIGHT THERE in the discussion, as opposed to your view of there being “no other option.”
Who had the more impressive performance in their last match?
Tito Ortiz = BJ Penn = Overrated, excuse-making frontrunner
Fitch clearly won round 2 and the fight against Penn
Sonnen clearly won round 1 and the fight against Bisping
Sure Hendricks is right there. They are both in the same area. But Jake’s got it now, and if Jake gets hurt, Hendricks is in.
Right now the UFC has clearly showed their hand, my point to you is why are we debating something of no value?
Do you seriously think they are going to say hey Jake dominated the entire fight and looked bad their for one minute and recovered from it anyway, but yea, let’s throw out our well made plans for Mr. 300 and his possibly fluky punch on Fitch.
It’s obvious Jake and Hendricks are in the mix, the UFC has showed their hand, your option for them to " switch out " Jake for this performance just doesn’t add up .
But why on Earth would they do that? For a 12 second fight? For Hendricks otherwordly popularity? Lol. There is legit no good reason to take that away from Jake right now. He fought great.
UFC is probably not 100% sold on the Fitch fight, many people thought it was lucky , fluky etc.
It’s obvious they want more from Hendricks if they didn’t at least wait until this outcome.
Which is also why I brought up the Maynard / Edgar vs Penn scenario. This is somewhat like this.
Jake vs Condit 2 is sexier than Hendricks / Condit.
Jake is all set up for his shot, main event, in his hometown, beat the crap out of Diego in the main event.
I mean, what’s the issue with Jake getting a shot? That he looked bad for a minute after dominating Diego the whole fight? And that he got up from Diego’s attack, and finished the fight on his own feet throwing bombs?
You just sound like you hate Jake if anything.
honestly,
i don’t know why you keep misunderstanding me. I have nothing against Jake and I have zero problem with him getting the title shot. My argument is that I think it’s a “coin toss” on which of them should get the shot. You seem to strongly feel jake deserves it much more than hendricks. That’s why I’m making a case for Hendricks. That’s all.
Personally, I’d also much rather watch Hendricks vs Condit than Jake vs Condit. I feel as though the rematch is rather predictable.
Tito Ortiz = BJ Penn = Overrated, excuse-making frontrunner
Fitch clearly won round 2 and the fight against Penn
Sonnen clearly won round 1 and the fight against Bisping
I hear you, and I have been a bit edgy here, I just don’t see the coin toss. I think your the only one who rather watch Hendricks / Condit.
But I’m cool to debate it. That said, I wouldn’t have had any problem Hendricks getting the shot right after Diaz got popped for weed.
Let’s start off with this.
Quick knockouts over Shields and Fitch are damn near equal, although Fitch is FItch. So Hendricks gets a bonus.
Jake headlined the card though, and won in spectacular fashion obviously.
Hendricks hasn’t been close to headlining a card until now. He was the third fight on the main card when he fought Fitch. No one gave him a chance, I think I was the only won on this whole fucking site that thought Hendricks was going to win, so you can see I am not biased against him.
Jake has now headlined two fights, and dominated both.
Hendricks hasn’t headlined anything. Got beat by Story, who lost to Brenerman, who lost to Rumble.
Hendricks had a close and competitive match with Pierce, who is a tough fight for everyone. But still.
Jake looked more dominant in his last two fights than Hendricks did. Plus, a win over Diego is bigger than a win over Pierce.
So, like you can see, there is legit no good reason for this to be a coin toss. It’s heavily in Jake’s corner here.
Headlining a card means nothing to me. I fail to see the relevance, especially when we’re talking about a card on Fuel TV, which many people don’t even get.
Ellenberger has ALSO lost to Story.
Also, as Dana just admitted, having this fight go 3 rounds was a mistake and he said they’ll be 5 from now on. I think most people would have to say if this fight were 5 rounds, Diego probably pulls it out.
Whereas Hendricks is coming off of a KO of the #2 WW, who was the best human WW in the world. GSP is not human.
Couldn’t disagree more with Jake heavily being the favorite for the shot over Hendricks.
Tito Ortiz = BJ Penn = Overrated, excuse-making frontrunner
Fitch clearly won round 2 and the fight against Penn
Sonnen clearly won round 1 and the fight against Bisping
I did see him grimace after throwing the right
And then he shook it out that usually signifies broken hand

Diego earned his win over Kampmann, obviously not against Jake. It’s not Diego’s fault that Kampmann decided to disappear after an awesome first round.

Ah, oh so your saying Diaz didn’t earn the win. Well, 1,2,5 appeared to be Diaz win, some closer than others. Condit dominated the 4th. It was a close fight, could have gone either way, although I like the majority agree 1,2,5 Diaz was the safe bet here.
I probably am going to rewatch that, so I gotta get back to you on that later.
yeah but theres a fine line with the "playing it safe" game. too safe and your boring and u lose the decision. where as frankie imo does enough while staying safe ala gsp to get the decision

Not too stupid, he just looks at it differently. Hard to argue that Jake didn't win 2 rounds easy but ...
Diaz doesn’t feel that it’s the end of it.
5-2, undefeated and undisputed, beat me ... if you can.

Allen Burger got lucky.

If this had gone on into the 4th and 5th like it should have.. I really do believe that Diego would have taken it.

utter crap
no fighter trains to gas at the right time.
He was spent.

Yes, He was spent
But that doesn’t mean he wouldn’t put more time into cardio training for a 5 round fight. What sense is there in training for 5 round cardio for a 3 round fight when that time could go into technique training.

Jake doesn't deserve to fight for the belt after that performance, especially against a guy who's already beat him
He should have to fight the winner of Hendricks/Kos
What a clown, Diego was basically dead and he nearly got knocked the fuck out by a scrub ass Diego who basically had already given up..
E-Burger is a scrub..he already lost to Condit and Hendricks or Kos would work that clown..he doesn’t have the cardio to survive either one of them
It’s a matter of timing. There’s literally no one else available. And your living in a fantasy world where the contender’s resume should mimic a champions to get a title shot. It doesn’t work that way.
Hendricks says, "hi"

not really........break it down:
KO’ing Fitch > KO’ing Shields
W over Pierce isn’t much worse than a W over Sanchez
Throw in the fact that Condit’s already beat Jake, and I think Hendrick’s is plenty deserving of consideration for a title shot over Jake. Jake will get it, though.
Tito Ortiz = BJ Penn = Overrated, excuse-making frontrunner

One win doesn’t always determine everything though. Considering they thought it was good to book Hendricks before this fight, shows me that it’s Jake’s for the taking.
I agree with that being the direction of the ufc
You said that there was no other choice. I think i’ve argued against that notion successfully.
Tito Ortiz = BJ Penn = Overrated, excuse-making frontrunner
Fitch clearly won round 2 and the fight against Penn

Considering the direction the UFC took prior to these events, I don’t think your option is likely at all.
It’s pretty obvious they want a little more out of Hendricks. Or they would have never booked his fight so close to this fight happening.
I don’t see where you are talking about anything realistically.
Do u not understand what i'm saying?
I agree their plan was to set up an ellenberger title shot. You commented that he’s the ONLY option. I’m saying Hendricks is right there in the picture as well. I wouldn’t have a problem at all if they scrapped his fight against Koscheck and gave him the title shot over Ellenberger. But at the same time, it’s unnecessary because the current scheduling is a bit more convenient for Jake.
Tito Ortiz = BJ Penn = Overrated, excuse-making frontrunner

RIght now, that is THE option. There are no other options right now. Which is my point. This was already set up. Jake just one the biggest fight of his career, headlining a UFC card, in his hometown.
There is no reason for the plan to not continue because you have a sour puss on your face.
Now let’s say Jake broke his hand, and Hendricks had to fill in due to injury, that’s talking realistically.
Either Hendrix or Kos could fight Condit after Jake
… but Kos couldn’t be interim champ while GSP is champ.
5-2, undefeated and undisputed, beat me ... if you can.

That’s why I was surprised by Hendricks / Koscheck. Fuck it I don’t blame them. Let them all fight, and it will all figure itself out.
I want to see Fitch / Shields for fucks sake!
definitely want to see that fight
I’d take Fitch

You know why he changed his nickname to the Dream?
Becasue that’s the only way he will be a champ. Keep dreaming Diego!
It's all about the entertainment.
Diego probably wins a 5 rounder. He was pretty damn close. He will get his chance if GSP keeps winning.
If Dan Hardy can get a title shot, Diego can eventually. If GSP cleans everyone out.
Heck, Dan probably took Diego’s shot. Cuz Diego decided to drop down to LW at the worst possible time.
Although Diego was set up with Alves, which wouldn’t have been pretty. After Alves got his shot, Diego probably would have gotten his. Instead of getting his ass kicked by GSP he got his ass kicked by BJ.
All Diego does is "bumrush" mma. He is not worthy and hasn't improved his skills.
It's all about the entertainment.
That shit actually works on a lot of people. You need to be an incredibly skilled striker to avoid people just rushing at you like that, and no one bumrushes better than Diego.
There’s a reason why only Penn and Kampmann , two of the elite skilled strikers, ever put his bumrush in it’s place. That shit is not easy to stop a vampire madman from charging you.
Did you see him snarling in the third? He was amping himself up to go hard, he’s a fucking nutjob seriously. Makes him a great fighter.
I doubt it. If anything Diego came out with a moral victory here. He will feel he beats Jake in a 5 rounder, and he didn’t get knocked out. Everyone though Diego would have been knocked out .
Not sure I agree with that
Everyone though Diego would have been knocked out
Diego’s only been finished once in his career, and that was in the 5th round against Penn due to a cut.

That’s what was buzzing around here on Mania. Go check some threads. Maybe not everyone. But a lot of people were talking up Jake. I thought Jake was being overvalued personally.
I just think that was foolish
As I mentioned before the fight, I thought it being 3 rounds, Jake would take the decision, and if it were 5, I thought it’d be a coin toss, depending how soon Jake gassed.

Probably because their first fight was a war, Condit always brings it ( except that one time ) and Jake always brings it, and Jake actually won, and Condit was close enough. Yea, that about covers it.

I'll definitely reconsider picking Jake in a 5 round fight even if I think he's got a great chance to KO his opponent

Yep. That’s Jake’s big downfall. His cardio is good, but he’s just too big and explosive, and puts 100% in all of his punches. He just doesn’t use his cardio well. He definitely has cardio though.
The name of the game will always be, how does Jake’s power/cardio combo compare against this fighter.
I'd be tempted to pick him against Condit again just because I think he'd go after him
but in a 5 rounder, no chance i’d pick him now.
5-2, undefeated and undisputed, beat me ... if you can.
I clearly didnt learn my lesson the first time, The Pride has smashed me AGAIN. My excess estrogen has destroyed my life, I make Chaz Bono look like a real man"
You gotta remember that Jake can take Condit down easier than he can take down Diego.
Generally Jake throws bombs either knocks you out or gets tired and takes you down.
Now that won’t work against GSP, but against Condit, Diaz, sure, that’s a good gameplan.
True, Jake tried to pace himself too which is a good thing.
I imagine Condit winning the last 3 against him if he can stay off his back
5-3, undefeated and undisputed, beat me ... if you can.

So Diego has his back for 90 seconds and Jake lost a moral victory? Get real.

And Jake got back to his feet and threw bombs to finish the fight. Jake got a moral victory for that.
Jake got no moral victories
He was thoroughly beat the fuck up. Nick Diaz said it best. Diego won that fight. Not in ooo la la points fighting like I know all you guys get hard for. But the actual fight.

Did you miss that Jake got up from under Diego, and finished the fight on his feet? Jake dominated the entire fight, and looked bad for 2 minutes in the whole fight.
Dude, you can't be as stupid as you look
In both Diego and Diaz fights, they gave up a superior finish to try and finish the fight when they heard the 10 seconds mark.

What? Your an idiot. That makes no sense. So the third round should be held higher than the other two? Fuck outta here.
I'm not trying to insert myself into this argument....
but Diego wasn’t in serious trouble at the end of the 2nd….not even close. BJ put quadruple the beating on him and the only reason that fight was stopped was by the doctor because of the cut.

I think Condit is more ready.
Jake has the ability to end the fight with his power punches. That’s it! GSP is too good to let him rush in and KO him. He didn’t take Serra seriously. He will go in scared as hell against Ellenberger. He will break his orbital bone via leaping jab and then smother him for five rounds. Condit is another story. Condit also has the power but I think he is more well rounded. He varies his strikes and I think has the ability to submit GSP. Lets not forget they train together so this is probably an advantage for Condit.
Do not. I repeat, do not, go to mma-core.com. I made the mistake of watching a couple UFC 108 bouts on there and I am still trying to get all the viruses off my computer. Ridiculous! You've been warned.
