UFC 143's Nick Diaz tests positive for marijuana, what's next?

Photo

Former Strikeforce Welterweight Champion Nick Diaz, who quickly established himself as Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) 170-pound number one contender upon his Octagon return in 2011, tested positive for marijuana following his UFC 143 loss to Carlos Condit back on Feb. 4 in Las Vegas.

For Diaz, the infraction marked the second time he's been popped for the green stuff in Nevada, having flunked his exam after strangling Takanori Gomi at PRIDE 33 nearly five years ago.

And let's not overlook the drug test he bailed on prior to his planned fight against Jay Hieron in California.

While Diaz has the right to appeal, he's expected to face a steep monetary fine, as well as a lengthy suspension that could last as long as one year.

Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) Executive Director Keith Kizer explains the next steps for Diaz (via SiriusXM Fight Club) after the jump.

Star-divide

"Mr. Diaz will receive the complaint. The complaints have been mailed to him. He'll receive the complaint by mail and he'll have 20 days upon receipt to file an answer. With the complaint, those are just allegations at this time. There's been no finding against him. He'll have ample opportunity to respond to the complaint and then we'd put it on for a hearing at a time that works for him as well as the Attorney General's office probably April based on past disciplinary complaints and at that time, there'll be a hearing before the full commission and then they make a decision at that time and if they found the athlete guilty, they'd then impose whatever discipline they felt was appropriate."

UFC President Dana White released a statement in the wake of the commission's findings, expressing his "disappointment" in the Stockton slugger's inability to play by the rules.

Diaz is not expected to be released based on this transgression, as ZUFFA chief Lorenzo Fertitta told Twitter followers he would be accepted back into the promotion after serving his time.

Anyone agree with that decision?

give me a fuckin break, Marijuana is not a drug.

He has a prescription anyway… I’m sure he’d rather be paid in bricks of pot. Let the man fight.

do you live in california? if you did, you would understand what a joke "having a prescription" is

all my friends in high school went down to venice and gave a visit to dr.kush (not sure where he got his doctorate) but low and behold, 100 dollars later they had a prescription for medical marijuana

Not a drug?

I like smoke as much as the next guy, but people acting like it does NOTHING are fucking RETARDED. If it does nothing, why even fucking smoke it?

It is a banned substance in MMA. Not difficult to understand. You can’t take painkillers, you can’t be buzzed on alcohol. You can’t toke up.

But you can drink the week of the fight, you could drink the day before, which has far worse biological implications than marijuana. You can’t smoke weed two weeks out because it stays in your system longer, and no one is saying Nick Diaz smoked weed right before he walked out to the octagon, which has been Kizer’s stated purpose for testing for weed in that he doesn’t want them to fight while theyre actually impaired. Beyond that it serves no effect. While I understand that rules are rules, its a dumb fucking rule and the NSAC is draconian when it comes to their stances on a multitude of things, like admitting when they’re wrong.

by nomomrnicekyle on Feb 10, 2012 12:21 PM EST up reply actions  

No way to test for pot that way. For me personally, I would want to make sure eveyrone is on a level playing field. And since no one can agree what weed does to every individual, I choose to look at it the same way as someone taking a pain killer. Not ok in my book.

Well at least its some type of precedent for somewhat of a related situation

Of course he smoked, still does, always did.
Its a sucky area of enforcement by the commission. I of course agree, its a rule and of course everybody knows it is but I also think it shouldn’t be a drug that warrants suspension etc. I know there’s a problem with testing for it in the blood and it may be hard or impossible (no idea) to tell whether it is in the blood from recent (that day sort of thing) or last week or even previous to that, where it could not possibly have any impact on motor skills, pain tolerance, or impairment.
And, I don’t know if anyone in any position of authority cares about the changing the rules regardless.

Ding Ding Ding - we have a winner

They cant test when they smoked pot, but they can tell that its still in your system. No painkillers, or state altering drugs allowed – and pot is on the list. EVERYONE knows its in your system longer than alcohol – its his job, he’s a “professional” – either dont smoke, or smoke it with loads of time to get rid of it in your system.

no one has a prescription for cannabis

they have a recommendation from their doctor not a prescription. there is a difference.

but even if Diaz does have a recommendation it would most likely only be recognized in California. the cannabis recommendations are not normally usable in other states because every state has different restrictions on the diseases/injuries that are eligible for medical cannabis. like in Cali Nick can get a rec for having anxiety, or panic attacks, or insomnia, or headaches. but in Nevada you would usually need to have a debilitating condition like AIDS, cancer, glaucoma, etc.

this website notes that Nevada does not accept the recommendations/ID cards from other states.

fine him monetarily?
-he’s retired anyway so why would he pay the fine? the only reason to pay the fine would be to get the license reinstated so if he’s retired what’s the point?

1. he doesn’t have to retire from fighting, just retire from fighting in the US.
2. he’s in Cali, so getting into medical cannabis business is an easy option

Nothing will happen to him that will effect his carrer longterm.

He will get his fine and serve his suspension. Dana will have a rant that none of this is acceptable and then turn around and book him again for another headline event. This will carry on until Nick no longer becomes a PPV draw. Only then will Dana cut him.

I was actually starting to sway in my hatred for Nick’s stupid post fight antics and silly mean mugging and began to be more open minded about Diaz. I bought into the whole he doesn’t like the lime light and media which is why he rambles making no sense in the promotional aspects. I even listened when they talked about how intelligent of a fighter he was by winning the psychological game with opponents. But the dude is a stoner. And not just an every now and again stoner, he’s a day in and day out stoner. And for everyone that thinks it has no affect think about all the extremely talented people you know that blaze it up habitually. They never come close to their full potential.

I hate how people say fuck the diaz brothers when its really just one brother acting out. Also I don’t really see a whole lot wrong with Nick because he is a fighter and that’s what he does. It’s not like he is raping girls or boys from his gym, he isn’t involved in gangs. They pay him to fight and that’s what he does. He just doesn’t abide by rules 100% of the time oh well people do worse than that

What does marijuana metabolites mean?

Metabolic is the term for breaking down and synthesizing food and minerals and whatnot. So does this mean this is old weed or new weed?

by unambig on Feb 10, 2012 1:44 PM EST reply actions  

The active ingredient in marijuana — Tetrahydrocannabinol or delta-9-THC or simply THC — enters the body’s bloodstream rapidly after smoking marijuana. If marijuana is ingested, rather than smoked, it takes longer to be absorbed into the blood, usually from 20 minutes to an hour and a half.

But THC is detectable in the blood for a short time, usually a few hours, because it is rapidly metabolized into molecules known as metabolites. At least 80 different metabolites are formed from THC. These metabolites are stored in body fat and are gradually eliminated from the body through feces and urine.

by unambig on Feb 10, 2012 1:45 PM EST up reply actions  

Some THC metabolites have an elimination half-life of 20 hours. However, some are stored in body fat and have a elimination half-life of 10 to 13 days. Most researchers agree that urine tests for marijuana can detect the presence of the drug in the body for up to 13 days.

So Nick smoked pot anywhere within 20 hours to 13 days before the fight with Condit.

It cleans you out temporarily, but you could get tested the next day and show positive for it.

Here's the thing for me

Marijuana’s THC leaves the blood stream and is metabolized within a few hours, just like alchohol. So, why would it be treated like a performance enhancing drug? If he didn’t smoke it on fight day it’s irrelevant. Just as if someone had a beer before fight day the alcohol wouldn’t show.

It's not about whining

Right now it’s about whether there’s a proper administration of drug-testing going on. Did Diaz test positive for residual metabolized THC that was irrelevant to the fight? Or did he test positive for the blunt he smoked an hour before the fight? It makes a huge difference.

If a person gets popped for smoking pot five days before an event and a person doesn’t get popped for drinking whiskey a day before an event, then the system is inherently flawed.

We’re testing for intoxication here, right? It’s clearly not a performance enhancing issue. If you’re stretching you could call it a pain killer.

why? It is the law.

If the majority deem that the law is unjust it gets overturned. That is how a political process works and why alcohol is now illegal.

If enough people were to get inolved in the political process to try and get pot legalized, it would probably happen. Hell, all you have to do is show the political largesse from the “war on Drugs” and the number of people incarerated for minor pot offenses. The US could save billions a year by eliminating this largesse and make additional billions by legalizing and taxing.

That si not the point oif the argument. The point is that Nick knew the rules and skirted them, just like he has done in the past. Once again, his diehard fans take to the streets and say how unfair the qworld is and how Nick deserves better because it is silly that pot is banned and teh test is bullshit because pot is not a performance enhancer.

All I care about is whether the fight was fair. And in this context we don’t know whether the positive test was based on metabolized THC that had no impact on the fight, or whether it was still in the blood stream and potentially made Diaz more relaxed, calm and able to take punishment more easily.

If he wasn’t intoxicated during the fight then the marijuana had no bearing on his performance and is irrelevant, regardless of its status of legality.

Majorities are fickle

But even if a majority agree to change the drug laws, it takes much more to overturn them since politicians who are able to change legislation are generally conservative-minded.

not always

the munchies are real, but not everyone smokes pot and automatically starts munching…sadly…i am one who smokes and eats ha.

My favourite thing to do is munch

This is disgusting but I would buy teriyaki beef jerky and my favourite potato chips, Lays sweet chilli, and mix them in a big bowl and go to town.

Only the fact that I have a sick metabolism kept me from getting fat.

I don't need any explanation on how weed works my man,

but i can’t go to sleep after getting lifted, i have to wait for it to wear off first. and unless I eat before i puff, I always get the munchies. well, unless i’m drinking beer and am just hitting a bat.

I like it when I haven't smoked for about a year or so and I decide to smoke again

There’s that first time it hits you and you start entering the zone and you’re not quite used to it so you kind of grip the armrest and brace for impact.

Then it mellows and you go watch land of the lost with Will Ferrell.

If I let him discover drugs through his peers it’s more dangerous than introducing them openly and without the stigma of its illicitness.

i wont go that far but i'll put it this way...

I don’t necessarily want my kid to get into motocross b/c I saw some of my friends get hurt pretty bad. That doesn’t mean I think it should be illegal. Also, talking about what kids do and grown adults do are 2 completely different things. I don’t want my 5 year old having sex, but if he’s not getting some when he’s 20 i’ll be wondering what I did wrong.

Because children aren't mature enough nor responsible enough to handle intoxicating agents

If anyone looks back at Ross Rebagliati our Canadian Olympic snowboarder gold medal winner a few year ago...

http://ndsn.org/FEB98/mj1.html

They allowed him to keep his gold medal, acknowledging that the amount of THC found in his blood would not have provided any athletic advantage to him while competing.

I posted this above but thought someone might want to look into since it seems like a kinda relevant comparison in my opinion.

relax ladies

Nick Diaz has such a strong fan base becauce he doesn’t seem to care about the rules. Who the fuck cares if he smoked a bit of weed. The feeds are never this long when TRT is being talked about. Nick is probably the cleanest athlete in the UFC and he’s made up his OWN mind on what is right and wrong. That’s why his fans love him so much. He does what he wants. He’s not a consuming company man ready to jump through hoops to make some cheddar. Who knows this could be the start of the legalization of cannabinoids to certain levels. If its considered legal in the state he lives in and has a presctiption from a medical doctor i can’t see how the NSAC can allow guys to shoot Testosterone in their asses and not this. Every year the NSAC upgrades it’s chromatographers (machines they use to seperate and detect illegal compunds) i bet they got a new one and Nick just didn’t know how to beat quite yet lololol .

#1 pot is illegal

A stupid and useless law that I break on a daily basis, but it is the law…currently anyways. Nick knows this. He’s getting paid a hefty sum to do a job. A job that requires he takes drug tests. He knows this too. This is his SECOND offense. You can’t fix stupid. Dude has serious social issues and rebels against pretty much everything. He needs to get his head straight. I’m really surprised Dana has put up with all of the bullshit that comes along with the Diaz brothers, well, Nick anyways. I doubt he’ll put up with much more of it. There are plenty of good fighers and more and more are climbing the ranks each day. Nick Diaz is about to find himself back in Strikeforce or doing triatholons and marathons for a living if he keeps up the idiocy. I like him as a fighter, but he comes off as a dick in most other areas.

I agree

just watched a few of his fights, he’s one of the most exciting guys to watch fight, like his bro nate. As much of a fan i am of gsp his fighting style isn’t the most exciting to watch and his last fight was brutal, probably his worst. I wanted to see his last fight again with carlos, couldn’t find it, i thought carlos won but I would like to watch it again carefully. I watched his fight with sherk and thought it could have been a draw, had sherk winning the first, nick the second and the third was really close. Would love to see nick tested against top wrestlers just to see how he’d fair, would be interesting, he stuffed almost all of sherks shots.
