A lawyer representing Nick Diaz said the Nevada Attorney General’s office made a “very offensive” and “ridiculous” statement when Diaz was accused of lying on a pre-fight medical questionnaire prior to his UFC 143 fight with Carlos Condit.
Las Vegas-based lawyer Ross Goodman contends that Diaz’s medical-marijuana card doesn’t constitute a prescription.
So, he said, the fighter wasn’t lying when he checked “no” on the part of the questionnaire asking whether he had taken or received any prescribed medications two weeks prior to his fight.
