Nick Diaz is taking no prisoners in his retirement-and-now-comeback plan. Or, rather, Nick Diaz isn’t letting anybody who didn’t let him off the hook, off the hook. (Comprende?)
I don’t. (Ho-hum)
Recently, and potentially eclipsing that brew over Alistair Overeem, the Cesar Gracie disciple pulled off something special that further edifies the legal profession.
As our featured columnist Andrew Saunders brilliantly and succinctly penned it, Diaz “sues the Nevada State Athletic Commission for having the audacity to suspend him after failing a drug test.” (And yes, there’s a lawyer to get it done. Ho-hum.)
Here’s a quickie of only some of Diaz’s infantile misadventures:
Made history by engaging in the UFC’s “first four-round match” in UFC 57 versus Joe Riggs—with the last round fought in the hospital room.
In 2011, he “out-vanished” Harry Houdini in the two press conferences of UFC 137, which he headlined against champion Georges St-Pierre for the UFC welterweight title.
Last February 2012, he announced his retirement after losing a professional MMA fight—and not a street brawl—to Carlos Condit in UFC 143.
Again, this year and for the umpteenth time, he was tested positive for marijuana use (ho-hum) and was suspended before he could effectively launch a campaign and successfully repeal the NSAC rule to his liking.
And now, he’s fighting back against NSAC and is coming out of retirement after a very long two-month hiatus.
Well, he never claimed to be a model in clean and responsible living; he’s just here to fight—or not fight.
Inside or outside the Octagon, it doesn’t matter.
And still, wherever he goes and whatever he does, his diehard babysitter fans will always find him cute. (Ho-hum)
