For quite some time now I keep hearing people call me crazy or better yet a troll when i tell them Ellenberger beat Condit 29-28 in their first meeting. Was my scoring off when i first saw the fight? Possibly. I decided to take a closer look at the fight, and count what each fighter did for a better fight analyses. Hopefully this will once and for all make it clear who really won the fight between Condit and Ellenberger.

I just wanted to add that even though Ellenberger did control Condit for most of the 2nd round, Ellenberger was extremely inactive while Condit on the other hand kept throwing punches from the bottom. That is why i gave Condit round 2.
