Was anyone really a fan of his? I could care less about the guy cause he was never gonna do anything anyways.

I enjoyed watching Nate knock Maia out cold.

thats my guess being dana was about piseed as could be at the pre fight show. Had he just missed weight I doubt dana would of cut him so quick.

Nate Marquardt was cut from the UFC after the Pennsylvania Athletic Commission refused to license him to fight Rick Story in what was to have been the headliner at UFC on Versus 4.

UFC President Dana White spoke to Ariel Helwani and Stephan Bonnar on the Versus post UFC Live 4 show and he addressed the Nate Marquardt situation:

Yeah I found out, I actually found out on Thursday and all I have to say is honestly, from what I saw here this evening and the way things have been handled so far, the Pennsylvania Athletic Commission is the best commission in the United States. Seriously, the way that these guys handle things and the way that things have been done during the fight, before the fight, etcetera, etcetera.

The thing that's going on with Nate Marquardt, Pennsylvania laws are unfortunate that the commission can't come out and announce medical records or medical situations with fighters but I think it's pretty clear to the fans and everybody else that I'm pretty disgusted with Nate Marquardt.

He's been cut from the UFC. He won't fight in the UFC ever again. So gotta follow these guidelines with the health and blah blah blah blah blah, bottom line is what Nate Marquardt did is bad enough to be cut from the UFC....He didn't pass his medicals, you know what I mean?

It's the way it has to be said here because of the laws and the health and the this stuff. You guys know me, you know how I operate. Before anything was said, he's cut, he's done with the UFC. I'm disgusted with him and he has no business fighting in the UFC...I would say the exact opposite. Nate Marquardt has done some things and I'm one of these guys that gives everyone a second chance. We all make mistakes...Nah listen, we all make mistakes, people make mistakes, we're human. It's gonna happen. It's how you handle it.

Nate Marquardt is a nice guy, he's a sweet heart, always says the nice things and is a nice guy. But you know, being nice and acting nice and doing the right thing are two different things...

This is one of those situations where because of the laws in the state of Pennsylvania, Nate Marquardt is gonna have to man up and come out and tell the world why he didn't pass his medicals. He's gonna have to man up and tell the world why he didn't pass and when he does, I think everybody will understand why he was cut from the UFC...

I dunno. You guys see when Nate Marquardt decides to come out and talk to every body and if he does or if he doesn't. Whatever happens, I know there's always things out there about me where I can be too whatever but if you really look at how I've treated people and treated fighters over the last 10 years, I give a lot of guys chances and I know that everybody makes mistakes and Nate Marquardt has been one of those guys.

So for me to come out and say that he's never gonna fight in the UFC anymore, it's gotta be pretty serious. It's not because Nate and I had some problems, you know? Otherwise, if that was how I felt about Nate Marquardt, would he be headlining a show on Versus? Would he be in the position he's in in Welterweight or Middleweight division? No. I've had a good working relationship with Nate Marquardt.

Marquardt is expected to release a statement tomorrow.

i wanna know so bad!

HIV Bitches!

it has to be something along those lines...

PA cannot tell him to fix his aids in 6 weeks though. Heragonnasyphilaids are 4 life. I'm guessing bulged out disk or some other back or neck problem. He would of been sidelined and not able to fight and instead choose to ignore it and try to keep quiet on it. That is why he got fired because he fuc'd with Zuffa's emotions(money).

i doubt its something like that G, if he was hurt and tried to fight through it Dana would be all over his nutts now

If that were the case then Magic Johnson would've just given him the cure

+1

If he could fight, then yeah. He couldn't even get cleared and got denied, fucking up the main event, thus fucking up some kind of zuffa cash and rep, thus being told to gtfo for life. PA isn't gonna tell him to fix his stds in 6 weeks I'd imagine. Could be special k.

Quote :

According to the commission's website, while in the course of applying for a license, a professional fighter must provide a negative HIV, Hepatits C and Hepatitis B surface antigen exam. They must also provide the results of an annual medical exam. That exam is wide-ranging and covers potential issues related to vision, lungs, heart rate, the nervous system, coordination and more that could disqualify a fighter from competition. In addition, there is language in the regulations that offers the commission the latitude to request other exams. The stated medical requirements are similar to those of other states, including Nevada and New Jersey.

All of the test aforementioned results are considered the fighter's private medical information and kept confidential under federal HIPAA laws. Federal or Pennsylvania state law does not, however, prohibit disclosure of a positive drug test result, nor the type of drug which led to a confirmed positive test.

Sirb confirmed that if Marquardt had failed a drug test, the commission would have released those findings.

"I've been here 22 years and we do not embarrass anybody," he said. "But we would have said, 'drug test.'"

The way Dana is talking in that article or interview is sounds like it's pretty emberassing to Nate.

man this sounds like nate really fucked up! This could get weird if nate has something to hide.......

I think this is more serious then just fucking with the UFC pockets and fucking them out of a main event. I'm interested to see what it is.

it HAS to be a STD...

We'll find out in 2 hours. I call he is gay and caught a S.T.D.

yeah he's gay... the 2 marriages were a screen to hide his gayness, so are the 2 kids he has...


ur such a homophobe that it makes me think ur gay urself...

It was obviously a joke to your post before it. No way is it that.

I think we are going to find out that Nate is a hermaphrodite and his estrogen levels are too high to compete in the UFC. She is fighting Gina later this year.

lmao

Nate can't make that cut. But her and Gina have a chance to find a catch weight.
