To be fair, Condit isn't really planted properly for any of those techniques because he's getting ready to run away if Nick comes back at him.
But if he had been planted, he wouldn't have been ABLE to get away fast enough and he would have been getting hit back, which round one taught him, he couldn't afford to do.

You're delusional.
He clearly had his feet set in both of the exchanges above, and he wasn't really losing round 1 either. Round 2 is the only one in which Diaz clearly got the better of Condit in the stand up. And he didn't really do any damage in that one either.

I agree but I probably wouldn't use the word delusional. Mistaken perhaps. Definitely has his feet set in the first gif though.

A good chin, but I wouldn't say granite based on the strikes he ate in that sequence. The head kick that Condit hit him with landed with the foot, and pretty close to the toes at that. It's not fun to get hit by that, but it doesn't do nearly as much damage as a clean shin bone to head hit such as the one he landed on GSP.

Still one of the best chins in the business though:
I was sure it was over when Daley landed that hook.

Yeah good thing Big John is an awesome ref and didn't prematurely stop the fight. Crazy fight. Nick definitely has one of the hardest chins in the business considering the fact that he gets tagged a lot and rarely flinches at solid shots. Love the first GIF after the combo he blows his nose like it was nothing lol.

Georges reacts to a head kick by getting rocked and falling over. Diaz reacts by casually sneezing in the octagon
