Carlos Condit and Donald Sanchez winding down there training camps...

By:FIT/NHB.com

Staying at the top is no easy task. Neither is getting to the top. WEC Welterweight World Champion Carlos Condit and up and coming fighter on a tear Donald Sanchez were pushing the limits with sprints, stairs and pads in a rain storm at 10,678' above sea level. Condit knows the dedication that it takes to remain the "man to beat" at 170lbs in the WEC. Sanchez was going stride for stride with the champ and is facing the biggest fight of his career next weekend in Canada. Sanchez will take on Jason Maxwell 15-8 who has a huge win over Jens Pulver and has faced very tough competition. Sanchez explained this as being a pivotal point in his career. A crossroads if you will. Condit will take on the tough Japanese fighter Hiromitsu Miura Aug 3rd who is coming off a devastating stoppage of Blas Avena. Miura has only recently made the drop from the middleweight limit of 185lbs to the welterweight division at 170. Maxwell and Miura will have their hands full in the next two weeks. Condit and Sanchez are winding down their respective training camps and are ready to go.
