Nick Diaz out of UFC 137 main event but hasn't been cut by UFC ... yet

When news broke just a short while ago that Nick Diaz had been removed from his scheduled main event fight at UFC 137 on Oct. 29 in Las Vegas against Georges St. Pierre due to no-showing press conferences, talk quickly turned to whether or not that meant he was cut from the promotion altogether.
So far, the answer to that question is no.
That's according to promotion President Dana White, who talked about how upset he is at the situation today at the event press conference but also said he's yet to make any concrete decisions regarding the future of Diaz, who just signed a multi-fight contract not long ago.
However, if his comments later on in the presser are any indication, it looks like Diaz's days back with the UFC may be over before they even got a chance to restart:
"I would have to assume that, yes, we're probably going to let him go, but we'll see what happens."
If Diaz does, in fact, end up getting cut from the promotion, will that be taking it a bit too far, considering how little everyone knows on the situation?
To that end, anyone got an idea as to what exactly is going on here?
For more on the shocking development of Nick Diaz no longer fighting Georges St. Pierre at UFC 137, as well as maybe no longer fighting for UFC, click here and here.

Remember when diaz would bitch and moan that GSP should...
give up his lucrative contract, sponsors and endorsement and come fight him? How people should bring him the “best” so they can prove themselves against him? ah, good times!

Right, and now Diaz bitchass gets
a brand new contract and immediate title match so he can finally walk what he’s been talking and he’s AWOL. Fuck this clown.

i dont think he thought this would happen
he probably thought fuck press conferences, i just want to fight… and hes probably devastated that this happened
supporter of all real fighters with much heart
Honestly
I don’t give a fuck what he THOUGHT would happen. It’s his obligation to help sell the fight and he told Dana he would play the game. It’s about being a man of your word. This guy is a fucking bum.

i think he has social anxiety..
hes getting the benefit of the doubt from me until the details are fleshed out a little more

dude, give up the ghost
he’s always giving interviews, has no problem showing up to events where thousands watch and millions on tv, or doing post fight interviews. he’s just a chicken

sneaking out of a press conference isnt chicken dude..
he got in there and threw hands with paul daley when he easily couldve took him down and submitted him.. thats fuckin bullshit to say hes a coward now just cause he skips a press conference
supporter of all real fighters with much heart
cause it was so easy for tyron to take daley down
tyron’s wrestling > diaz’s wrestling. He had nothing but striking to face daley since daley’s tdd is good enough to avoid most bjj fighters
pride never die.
silva is a can crusher, try and deny it after wacthing this
why would u say a guy whos been fighting professionally in a cage since he was like 18 is scared..
just for ditching a press conference… its obviously something else and not that simple… like karo parisyan the dude got a condition
supporter of all real fighters with much heart
Because he knew he was fighting someone on a WHOOOOLE NOTHER level.

Nick Diaz is just unprofessional. No anxiety, no excuses. He has been used to calling the shots and Dana isnt having it. Plain and simple.

I don't believe it's called "anxiety" in this case
I believe they call it “paranoia”
Diaz probably ran out the back door when Cesar came because he thought the Government was coming to harvest his brain for trade with extra-terrestrials.
"Who's da MASTA?!!!"
i didn't say such
i only said he fought daley with striking ‘cause that’s the only thing that diaz could do.
i feel bad for nick. I was expecting a victory as usual for gsp but i do feel sorry for nick. If that’s unprofessional or being scared I don’t care, it’s just sad
pride never die.
silva is a can crusher, try and deny it after wacthing this
because since hes been 18
hes never fought somebody that could completely negate his skill set and embarrass him they way GSP could have…but now well never know because diaz decided to be a moron
"This could be the worst disaster we've ever faced"
"With all due respect, sir, I believe this is gonna be our finest hour"
i don't think so.
DW got a call from Cesar saying nobody knows where he is… and that the last time Cesar saw Nick, Nick snuck out his back door.
cause he sucks at press
if he snuck out the door before a fight that would be a different story
supporter of all real fighters with much heart
i see what you're saying.
could be.
personally, i think Nick’s finally realizing that he’s going up against someone who is better than him. In nick’s eyes, he’s undefeated. My guess is that nick is trying to sabotage the fight so he can continue to say that he’s still “undefeated.”
i think he cant handle being on the spot to answer questions, so he says stupid shit and regrets it afterwards
supporter of all real fighters with much heart
sure
so say nothing and don’t regret getting cut before you actually fight. I see what you are saying.

He thought the UFC would just indefinitely keep buying him plane tickets for flights he didn't bother to take
and that after skipping 2 press conferences in a row (after promising to show) that Dana would just take his word for it that he’d show up on fight night, with millions of dollars riding on the line? YOu really think he thought that? Have you been dipping into Nick’s stash?
"Who's da MASTA?!!!"
he did plenty of press conferences in SF
i hes probably just a fucking idiot who blew his best shot

That isnt society anxiety. I have seen Nick chalk it up with big crowds of people.
That is just his demeanor.

he makes the press conferences and does interviews for Strikeforce...
why all of a sudden is he stiffing the UFC?
If he didn’t like doing it, why didnt he tell Dana the truth? Instead, he lied to him…that’s what got him pulled.
Fighting solves everything.
Youtube Nick Diaz and you will find hundreds of interviews. Where at times he smiles and has a good time. Sometimes seems acwkward. He had been main eventing and done pressers for a long time.

you're a good fan
i see that you’re giving him the benefit of the doubt which is cool. But, as it stands, it’s looking pretty bad for him. we’ll have to wait and see what statement he issues.
Personally, I’m a little pissed at him because I just shelled out $650 on two tickets + air fare + hotel + UFC Fight Club all just so i can watch GSP v Diaz and Penn v Condit. Both of those fights aren’t happening now… so, yeah, i’m a little pissed at Nick.
dana did the right thing..
im still going to the event cause its stacked.. but i am more bummed out for him than at him… u think he really didnt want the fight?
supporter of all real fighters with much heart
don't know... it depends on who penn is fighting.
gsp v condit is a good fight. Not as exciting as GSP v Diaz, but still a good fight.
If it’s Penn v Fitch, i’ll probably pass and take me and the girlfriend out to 3 shows and dinner for that kind of money!
So it all hinges on what fight they line up for BJ now. DW kind of hinted that he was thinking of a big fight for him… if so, i’m there.
Penn vs Kos would be awesome
let Fitch fight Hughes, since they’ve both already agreed to it.

I get what you are saying, but know this. Diaz has some issues. I have a customer that I always thought was a little weird, and some days he would be better then others. All in all though a good man.
Then one day I get a call from his wife that they need me to come over (they are 70ish) and take care of some issues. I get over there and I start giving her choices as to what size computer monitor she could and or should buy and she says the cheapest because 6 months before Her husband had freaked out, got off his meds and disappeared. 4 months into his extended “weekend” she gets a call that he was found beat to death in a Mexico bus stop. Needless to say this floored me, he was such a nice man. I didn’t even know he had any issues other then being slightly eccentric.
Point is you can’t say Nick’s fine anymore then someone else can say he’s crazy. Just know that bi-polar and anxiety issues can manifest at weird times and in weird ways. Just because someone can keep it together in one instance doesn’t mean in another they wont go over the edge.
Also note, his wife was a shrink and she said to me that manics “like the rush, like the high” of going over board, of “losing” it. I asked my mother who was also a shrink and she said – oh yeah manics are known for looking for a good reason to go off.
....
Someone who trains and exercises as regularly as Nick often is a big combatant to anxiety issues – the ones where it manifests in weird ways are the ones that dont do anything about it…
Dont make assumptions and turn Nick into a martyr for dealing with issues that a high percentage of the rest of the world deal with every day. Dick.
Blame. Excuse. Denial… All bullshit and he should man up is all

Man I am a massive Diaz fan, massive…..but how are you not extremely disappointed in him? He was brought over and given an immediate title shot and he goes awol on two pressers not even picks up the phone to give an excuse even his head coach seems to not know where he’s at….that is just moronic and way fucked up…..stupid and disrespectful as hell also. The hell is he thinking?

supporter of all real fighters with much heart
you apparently know nothing of martial arts spirit
in martial arts they have this antiquated little notion called “respect” and another one called “honor”. GSP exemplifies these traits. Nick Diaz has shown a complete ignorance of both concepts throughout his career.
"Who's da MASTA?!!!"
Hope everything is ok
with Nick. Would love to see Rory McDonald step in and fight B.J.
And Condit
Has Penn. It wouldn’t be the first time uncle dana mixes it up a little.
HAHA
The truth comes out. I would just like to see it because it would be an entertaining fight. Toss up if you ask me. Rory is a big kid though. He definately would have some size on B.J.
I'm not sure BJ would even take that fight
everything to lose, nothing to gain. Only hardcore fans even know who Rory is. He’s very dangerous but if BJ wins fans would say, “So what, he was fighting a no-name rookie.” We know Rory is more than that, so does BJ, but the general MMA public doesn’t.
"Who's da MASTA?!!!"
Well he fought Fitch
The only reason the casual fan knows about Fitch is that he’s the guy that GSP transformed to a swollen bloody pulp. But yea BJ would have more to lose than gain if he fought Rory.
this sucks

you’re a total idiot if you think this move “punked” the ufc. The ufc is out a few thousand dollars. Nick is out probably around 100K or so. He also vacated the SF title.
Nick’s only option now is fighting in Japan or moving to boxing… that is if DW doesn’t play hardball with him and keep him under contract forever without giving him a fight.
Fuck Nick Diaz

this may be true but with this happening this might be the perfect time for Dana to get these guys to settle their draw. Fans have a mixed review but their draw should be settled.

but i doubt it’ll happen. DW will do more than just take Diaz’s title shot away. If he has faith that Diaz would show for the fight, then may as well keep him with GSP. My guess is that, best case scenario, Diaz fights on a future card in a non-title fight. Worst case scenario, Diaz is out of a job because Strikeforce or UFC won’t hire him.
He’ll have to fight in Japan or make the move to boxing.

big move.
u have any idea how the GSP-Condit training will workout? Can you see Jackson actually training Condit to beat GSP?
Fighting solves everything.
oooh, hadn't thought of that
so many of GSP’s training partners are Jackson-ites and probably know all of GSP’s weaknesses. For that matter, Condit has probably sparred with GSP himself and watched who’s had what sort of success against him in training.
"Who's da MASTA?!!!"
i think the same.
this leaves Nick to dominate smaller MMA promotions (which I don’t think he will do considering he was looking for bigger pay days, not smaller ones)… or… going into boxing…
But, to be honest, what promoter wants to work with a guy that asks for so much money but you don’t have faith in? This is a pretty high profile fuck up on Diaz’s part. My guess is that promoters notice these kinds of things and will be hesitant to sign Diaz.
yea. and zuffa is ruining the sport.
they have too much power and money, no respect for the athlete.
RobDeezy88 , ps3! Tito Ortiz = God !
That wont change until they get a couple
of guys like GSP or AS to say enough is enough then. Step up, start a union or something. Theyve got to care about the guys making $5000.00/fight or whatever peanuts it is. I always wonder how these guys accept such little $ when the guy fighting and hour after them doesnt need to work ever again. I get theres endorsements and such but the pay scale after a fight is ridiculous. One guy gets $400k to show up while another one gets $4000 to show up and another $4000 to win or gets his ass kicked. Looking at how much these guys make after an event almost makes me sick. My mind has def changed about the whole thing.
ufc 137
i hope bj is still on card just got tickets really wanted to see main event
man..
This really breaks my heart..no joke. Diaz is one of my favorite fighters and I really thought he actually matured a bit….obviously I was wrong about that. I think he needs to be cut from zuffa all together.

Honestly, cut the fucker!
I have never been bored for one second of a Nick Diaz fight but the fact of the matter is the guy is a child! He has absolutely no respect for anybody and while that makes for interesting viewing in the cage it also means that he’s a nightmare for management!
Congratulations buddy, all that moaning bullshit that flowed out your mouth about how you cant get paid and make zero cash is entirely on your own shoulders.
You must really hate the fans to dissapoint them this much…fucking douchebag
Sakuraba beats Silva, Aoki would beat Miller and Vitor Belfort didn't deserve his title shot - In my opinion, the craziest points I've read on this site...
I wanna see Nick fight..
BJ Penn..
Let’s see how this story plans before we calling for his head to be cut!
There are so many variables..
since diaz signed the contract to fight gsp, from what i haven't seen are any
shit talking about gsp or anything really at all. some weird shit going with diaz.
so GSP is fed weak opponents, blatantly ducks A. Silva, is allowed to blatantly cheat and Diaz missed a fucking press conference and UFC sees it as their opportunity to give GSP another easy fight…what a fucking joke, is this a real sport or sports entertainment? A real sport would fine Diaz for missing worthless shit but he’d still be allowed to fight, he didn’t miss the fight, he wouldn’t, but UFC never wanted GSP to have to fight someone like Diaz…
Since when is Condit an easy fight.

Blantly ducks silva…. Your awesome, there in different weight classes and respected champions of their classes…. That’s like the lightweight champion wanting to fight George…. Oh wait!!!! For your homeboy Diaz it’s not like he fucking slept in, he snuck out his trainers back door…. I hope
He’s ok but there has to be some degree of professionalism especially when the UFC, sponsers and more importantly fans who shell out big money to see these guys
i feel like slapping Diaz
fucking asshole -your only chance to fight GSP, it was in the hole, but no you go and screw it up your brother dissapointed me a while ago, and now you !
High times detected:
I got a raging clue: “Gettin’ high watchin’ time fly, to live and die in L.A.”
When Rihanna says that it's sex in the air and she loves the smell of it, does she mean the duckbuttery smell of it?
Brock will get owned once again, JBJ will keep the belt for awhile
What's that?
….did someone say BJ Penn should fight Anthony Johnson and not Jon Fitch?
Fedor "The Can Crusher" Emeilianko IS NOT THE BEST HW EVER , in fact he sucks! he has the most padded record in the history of any combat sport, scratch that in the history of any sport. He has not changed as a fighter , he is still just as good as he was then, only difference is he isn’t fighting freaks and nobodies, I , along with many others have been duped into believing he is great, when clearly he is NOT! -I hate you the Dragon...one day
My anger for guyverbob has subsided rather quickly. I've moved on. After seeing that rampagelangford has a twitter account, I've decided to follow his footsteps (@thisiskam905)!
Fuck the UFC
So what? They have a fighter with a personality and may be a bit unprofessional. He trains hard and shows up to the fight is all that really matters. Not showing up to one press conference is funny. I was looking forward to this fight and PPV. Now I’m not and wont be buying it.
Screw u buddy
Nick is a punk , Dana cut his ass don’t deserve to be in the big league go back to strike force .
Anderson would KO Fedor That is all.
Don't Call Me Buddy
We’re not fucking buddies.
