I really dont think he was high during fight day because that would do nothing but hinder his performance. I think he may have smoked during the months or weeks leading up to the fight. Nick is a world class fighter and he is not stupid enough to be high during a fight. I read a article that said Nick smoked during training because it helps him relax.

[quote comment=”387874″]I think Renzo Gracie is by far the best place to learn BJJ for MMA. What gyms are the best place to learn other disciplines?

Wrestling - Team Quest (Lindland, Hendo, Soko)
Muay Thai - before: Chute Boxe (Shogun, Wandy), now: Mark DellaGrotte,… Thailand? lol
Boxing - Juanito Ibarra’s Big Bear Camp (Rampage, Kongo, Barnett, Vera)[/quote]
what camp does sherk train at because they have the best lay n pray in the business, and rashad evans has been improving on his split decisions, where has he been going

[quote comment=”387411″]Not that it really matters but the Gomi fight was ruled a NC bcuz he was high or had been high a few hrs prior to the fight which some would argue gave him an edge. I dont do drugs and havent comfirmed it with anybody that does but if marijane numbs out some of the pain and your a frequent user how the Diaz bros tend to say I think it may be an advantage, I could be wrong though…[/quote]

he tested positive for pot, but all that proves is that he smoked sometime within the last month before his fight.. it takes anywhere from a week to 6 weeks to clear out of your system depending on physical activity, metabolism, and just plain genetics. exercise will actually increase the time it takes to be clear of your system.

Really hope Diaz wins this fight. He should. He’s very inconsistent with his fighting, hopefully he can get on a winning track and stay on it.

ruling that fight a no contest was ridculous. marijuanna stays in your system longer than most substances. so it could have been days or weeks since Diaz last smoked anything.

IMO smoking weed doesnt give a fighter any advantage what so ever. when i got punched in the face, weed didnt make it less painful.

i sure hope he dorsnt smoke any weed in the weeks coming up to the fight. it would be a damn shame if he ended up with another NC on his record. hoping for a Duiz win by sub.

I bet if Gomi Kicks me in the face it will feel just the same as when I am not LIT![/quote]

I really don’t see how it would enhance anything for a fight. I’ve never gone numb, and if you do you would have to smoke so much you wouldn’t be in any kind of mood to fight let alone pick apart Gomi.[/quote]
like I said im not sure just kida curious, although it didnt seem to me he was picking him apart, Diaz wasnt sharp with his boxing, it was more like Gomi was gassed out of his mind and ive watched that fight and cant figure it out, did Gomi not train his cardio at all for this fight or wtf, but he was gassed like right after they tapped gloves.
