I would lose my damn mind if Diaz got another shot straight after losing to GSP. That would be his second title shot in a row coming off a loss AND he was offered the Condit fight at 172 which was pretty much a #1 contenders fight.

Agreed. It would make no sense and be a joke. The winner of Woodley/Condit and even Shields/Lombard would have a MUCH better case of getting it then him.

Nick Diaz just trying to get a big payday then retire again.

He probably needs money since his MMA promotion has failed, unless you call having 1 show a success.

It is about FREAKING TIME. All title fights should be in Nevada.

Dana White bans TRT in the UFC period.

Quote:
Minutes after the Nevada State Athletic Commission unanimously approved a motion to ban the practice of awarding fighters a therapeutic use exemption (TUE) for testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) in the state, the Ultimate Fighting Championship followed suit.

UFC president Dana White told MMAFighting.com on Thursday that the UFC will no longer allow fighters to use TRT when fighting on cards in which the UFC serves as the governing body. That typically happens when the UFC holds events overseas in countries that do not have athletic commissions in place.

"We follow Nevada," White said.

White, who had been vocal recently about the dangers of TRT, expressed extreme satisfaction that the NSAC finally banned the controversial use of TRT.

"[I'm] pumped!" White wrote via text message. "Couldn't wait for that garbage to go away."

Not period though. Only in places where the UFC governs like its international cards. TRT can still be used in Texas, NJ, CA and Wisconsin among other states.

Re: OS MMA Random Thread

Dana had some choice words for TRT. Interesting.

TRT should have never been allowed to begin with. Other states should follow. It wouldn't make sense if they didn't.
