Carlos Condit ready to ‘ante up’ again as he faces Matt Brown on final fight of current UFC contract

In a way, Carlos Condit is gambling on himself every time he sets foot in the UFC octagon, but the stakes are even higher ahead of his clash with Matt Brown on Saturday in Abu Dhabi.

Prior to his return at UFC Fight Island 7, the former interim welterweight champion revealed that he’s about to compete on the final fight of his current contract with the promotion. Condit didn’t disclose if this was a conscious decision to potentially test free agency or if the UFC is possibly seeing how he performs before offering him a new deal after he suffered through a 1-5 skid in his past six fights.
