For the first time since 2015, Carlos Condit had his hand raised at the end of a fight in the octagon. The favorite of longtime fans, nicknamed “The Natural Born Killer,” put in a workmanlike performance in which he showed flashes of his heyday and won a solid scrap with veteran Court McGee in the featured welterweight prelim bout of UFC on ESPN 16. The judges’ scores were 30-27 across the board for a unanimous decision, as the former WEC champ and UFC interim titleholder snapped a five-fight losing streak. “It’s been a long one. I’ve had some ups and downs, surgeries – but it’s a pleasure to be back here and go against a guy like Court,” Condit said in his post-fight interview
