Well it has happened once again. The Champion, Georges St-Pierre is our of commision due to injury, and the bout between himself and Nick Diaz is off. Young and hungry, in and out, contender, Carlos Condit will step in to face Diaz and an interim belt.GSP must now undergo surgery for his ACL, which is the source off his problem.

But Diaz's camp is not taking the replacement fighter lightly. They believe that Condit poses different problems than GSP. Even tougher in some areas.

"I believe he's better than GSP standing and not as good a wrestler, and [he doesn't have] as good of a top game," Gracie said. "I believe standing up, Condit is actually a more formidable opponent. So Nick is not known to force a takedown, so it's actually a harder fight, as far as standing."

As for now, the title match is set. Diaz vs Condit will be on the main bill. And the current champ will have to do something he hasn't done much since winning back his title. . . sit on the bench and watch.

"I've been telling him to take it easy now and let his knee heal 100 percent, and he just always tries to find a way to work around it," Zahabi said. "But now, he's going to require surgery, so there's just no way around a surgery. You've got to do it, you've got to rest, and that's the bottom line."
