Ronda Rousey weighs in on the controversy surrounding Nate Diaz and USADA.
Earlier this week, UFC fan favorite Nate Diaz came forward and admitted that he had tested positive for ‘elevated levels’ ahead of his highly anticipated ‘BMF’ title bout against Jorge Masvidal at UFC 244.
USADA later revealed that Diaz had tested positive for trace amounts of a performance-enhancing drug, and the news elicited outrage from the MMA community.
Some fighters were quick to accuse the Californian of cheating, while others came to his defense.
Before it was revealed Diaz was fully innocent and his adverse drug finding was the result of a contaminated vegan supplement, former UFC bantamweight queen Ronda Rousey came to Diaz’ aid and declared that ‘PEDs are for p-ssies’.

“Everyone knows you’re clean, fuck cheaters, PEDs are for P-U-S-S-I-E-S,” Rousey posted in support of Diaz on Friday evening.
Now that Diaz has been cleared of any wrongdoing, the MMA veteran is back on for UFC 244 and will look to be crowned the promotion’s first-ever ‘baddest motherf-cker’ when he takes on ‘Gamebred’ in the main event at Madison Square Garden, New York on November 2.
