Wonder what is going through this guys mind? Where else is he going to fight now? If u fuck the UFC there arent many more big paydays in MMA anymore.

All i care is that he shows up for the fight.
Part of what makes Diaz marketable is that he does not play the game and is volatile, along with the fact that he's a great fighter.
He only plays by his own rules, nobody elses, not even his own.

Would have been a great fight, but not even the biggest Diaz fans can stick up for him here (unless it is some legit social anxiety type shit), this is on him...
Gracie said no one can find Nick right now.

How great would it be if Nick was driving down the strip lost running into Caesars & Paris looking for Dana.

Well, maybe if Nick surfaces again it would not be too late to put him on the card against BJ...now THAT would fuckin rule.

Really, I think he does have some bad shit going on in his head.
It was even brought up in the press conference.
Someone asked Dana if any kind of mental evaluation has ever been given to a fighter. If there has ever been a psychological issue which might deem it inappropriate for an individual to be involved in this sport.
A question heavy in paradoxical possibilities but not with out merit imo.

I say as long as Nick Diaz is able to make weight and show up for fights...he's mentally competent to compete in the sport.

Said it in the other thread, and i'm echoing Gdp here. Nick is not mentally all there. The interviews that we all see, the actions of Diaz again and again, are more then just some guy being a selfish immature jerkoff, the guy is off kilter. there is a legitimate mental disorder going on there.

Interesting to see how the UFC plays it. Yeah they got the shaft, but if they agree that the guy is off kilter, do they extend an olive branch to help the guy out? And of coarse by doing so, the do not let him walk over to Bellator, or Dream, pro elite etc.
I think the UFC plays the role of nurturing care giver here

In a sense they already have. But I guess I won't be surprised if they continue to.

He better have a great excuse or i think they give him his walking papers. If he would have already lost to GSP he would be gone today but they can still sell him vs GSP and some point.

Subject: Video: Nick Diaz Apologizes for 'Not Making It to the Beauty Pageant' Wed Sep 07, 2011 10:18 pm
The welterweight fighter, who earlier in the day saw his title fight against Georges St-Pierre vanish after failing to show up at a Las Vegas press conference, posted a video, entitled "Looks like someone don't want me to win," on his YouTube account addressing the situation late Wednesday night.
"All I know is that I'm ready to fight," Diaz said from his car. "I'm sorry I didn't make it to the beauty pageant, but I've never not shown up to a fight. I've never backed out of a fight in my life. That's not what I do."
The 28-year-old did not, however, specifically address why he missed his media obligations in Las Vegas and Toronto this week.
