Ex-UFC champ Condit sees Pacquiao win

MANILA, Philippines – Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) interim welterweight champion Carlos "The Natural Born Killer" Condit predicts that Manny Pacquiao will give unbeaten American champion Chris Algieri his first loss when they fight on November 23 in Macau.

Condit, who briefly boxed before shifting to mixed martial arts, will be rooting for Pacquiao.

"I think Manny is going to win. He's a more dynamic striker and he'll outclass Algieri," Condit told local reporters in a press conference Friday at the 9501 Restaurant in ABS-CBN compound.

Condit is in the country as part of his “Rock It With Condit” UFC annual promotional tour.

The 30-year-old American fighter is on the road to recovery following a surgery due to the ACL injury he suffered in his fight against Tyson Woodley last March.

Cleared to resume light training, Condit will have a public workout Saturday at Trinoma Activity Center in Quezon City for the Filipino MMA fans.
