Probably late news here but... http://sports.yahoo.com/mma/news?slug=ki-iole_nick_diaz_positive_weed_test_020912 Wonder if he did it in Canada where its legal?
Fucking Diaz. UFC should fire him. First the press conference skipping and now this ? Put it this way say Diaz absolutely destroys Condit in two minutes, and everybody gets super excited for Diaz/GSP, guess what ? It wouldn't happen anyway because he did pot. If you wanna be a serious professional mma fighter then you're one 100% none of this childish bullshit Diaz brings. I love him as a fighter but he's not professional enough for this stage of the game. Fire him.
Damn shame he cant get it together outside the cage. Something bad's gonna happen with him if his fighting career ends, I'm afraid.
maybe diaz has a doctors rec. and it was legal. in other news, boss strikes me as a fella who has done gay more than a time or two
sure he did. You can have a card and still smoke it illegally. You cant smoke and drive. You cant smoke while you are working heavy machinary. You cant fight under it. BTW, the card is legal on a state level in Cali, but not on a federal level. His card or his high isnt legal in another state.
BOSS didn't say he supported testing for pot, only that Diaz is a fuck up for testing positive for it.
Yeah, but the dude trains in California. It's not like he comes to Vegas 2 weeks before a fight. There's a good chance it was all legal.
Just a thought, wouldn't this make this fight a No Contest? Therefore removing the interim title from Condit?:dunno:
You're not making the distinction. If he smoked out a week before the fight in his own living room in California, it is 100% legal. Please make the distinction between being against the law and violating the NSAC rules. It's not the same thing.
Yes, but you dont know when he smoked. He could have done in the lockeroom for all we know. So to say he didnt do anything wrong is a big of a stretch right? That being said, he knows how long weed stays in his system. He still decided to do it. He is a dumb person. I also want to point again, the federal government says that these pot places are illegal. It's the state that says it's ok. I know this is all beside the point and techinical and shit and who really cares. You are right. who does care. We need another fight soon. Im bored.
Just to be clear, I didn't say he didn't do anything wrong. I said anything illegal. Then again, he may have been sharing a bong with Nate and Jake in the dressing room minutes before the fight.
who cares? not like its performance enhancing, like seriously who gives a shit if dude had a joint hanging from his mouth during the ring walk i wouldnt give two shits, if he was high as a kite and still almost won the fight that says something now if diazs trainers has somehow got hersheys to sponsor condit and he had a big ass logo on his trunks then maybe itd be a different story
It only applies if the offender wins, it would be ridiculous otherwise. As for weed, it's a joke that A.C. even test for THC
I don't know the exact test they did, but urine test can detect marijuana use around 30 days. It could have been anywhere in the 30 days if that was the test. A hairstrand test can give a much more specific timeline. They should be able to narrow down the actual week by that test. If I was him I'd be getting that done for a defense/appeal. If he doesn't appeal he was definitely hanging out with the bong in Vegas.
Uhm.. this is old, recycled news. Nick Diaz is and always has been a stoner, has admitted to it, has openly been stoned in interviews and has tested positive for marijuana multiple times in past fights for years and years. This would be newsworthy had he not tested positive for marijuana.
I'm looking to purchase large quantities of illegal marijuana. Do you know anybody who can sell it to me?
