GSP is expected to make his return later this year, facing the interim champ Carlos Condit for the undisputed UFC Welterweight title.

    I am pretty sure they where going to fight, until Diaz pulled one of his stunts and he blew the oppertunity to fight him....so yeh GSP has done nothing, then he got injured but is recovering at an incredible rate according to the articles I have read so should be able to fight in the summer...but oh wait a minute Diaz got caught with weed in his system....i don't know if your capable of keeping score here but from your own logic Nick Diaz has done everything to NOT fight GSP, GSP 2 Nick diaz 0...If you ask me GSP has been game the whole time.

    @ GoldenBibi



    "GSP has been bullied by Nick Diaz for the past year..."



    How did he do that? Did he beat him up on the way home from school? Did he steal his lunch money? Did he push him into the lockers?



    Beyond the obvious fact that they are not 12 year olds, a few comments to the media by Diaz certainly do not qualify as "bullying". What do you expect GSP to do, jump him in the stands at a UFC event? Beat him up in the hospital?

    Those comments from Nick Diaz always make him stand as a gangster in many people eyes... A thug, and much more.. So for me to say, he has just bullied GSP fits right in for Mr. Greaser GSP, and his fans...



    Also Mortal Kombat bullied DC Universe.. So Fly away.

    What stunt... Nick Diaz saved UFC 137 by whooping coconut head Bj Penn. WTF are you talking about.. Destiny had GSP injured, while Nick was fighting Penn... So no, it was GSP who blew it... He f@ck*d up his Knee.. That fight was never going to happen at 137...So that cancel your first excuse.



    Now the weed issue is also bullsh!t... Because if Chael Sonnen can get away with everything his done, and OJ Simpson can get away with murder. Why can't Nick get away with smoking weed ESE.

    Nick Diaz was lined up to fight GSP at UFC 137, he failed to make press conference so got pulled from the main event (the title fight with GSP...you following this so far?) Conduit was then chosen to fight GSP instead of Diaz. So yeah Diaz did blow his shot at fighting the champ for the belt, then GSP got injured so the fight between GSP n CONDUIT (not diaz) was cancelled and Diaz was offered to fight BJ penn, infact BJ saved UFC 137 as their fight was then bumbed up to the main event....so that has not cancelled my first 'excuse' Diaz ****ed up get over it, infact he ****ed up twice, i agree the weed thing is bullshit, but he knows it is against the rules, do not do it so close to a fight simple, not until it becomes legal. Its not really to much to ask considering the amount of money and oppertunities he has been given.

    Bullshit the only thing that's against the rules is getting all greased up like GSP on the Penn fight... Now that is f@cking cheating. And Diaz missing a press conference was Dana choice on not making the fight, not Diaz.. So blame Dana..



    Nick shows up to fight. Just like he showed up to fight Penn on the same card he was supposed to fight GSP... So no, it was Nick who saved UFC 137... Nick didn't even wanted to fight Penn because he considered him a friend. Yet did anyway Knowing Penn wanted a piece of him... So you are the one who just doesn't get it.



    And its Condit...Yes Carlos Condit... Who f@ck is Conduit

    I'm a huge fight fan of Diaz and I have to agree with you Predator. Huge fan of his fights, not so much his thoughts.

    You damn right dana did not make the fight, Diaz did not do what his job entails him to do, he has to promote the fight simple, he did not do his job so dana has to punish him otherwsie fighters would walk all over him and the UFC would be a shambles. And seriously are you trying to tell me that nick diaz being suspended for smoking weed is not against the rules and that the drug commitee just has some vendetta against him.....wake up man

    It's a f@cking press conference dude.. Who gives a sh!t about that... The fight is what everyone wants to see.. Dana blew that million dollar fight...



    Nick was ready for the fight... He also explained why he didn't make it to press conference. Which I believe him..lol.



    Since when has Dana punished guys that really deserved to be punished...REALLY.. He could had fined him, but not cancel the fight... But yet he punished him by cancelling the fight with GSP, and then rewarding him again, after he whoop Penn. Making the fight again GSP vs Nick.



    Yea... Smart Dana, screwing Carlos up again, and doing what he wants. And the weed thing is bullshit... Many Fighters are on roids, and Dana, and the drug committee haven't been able to punish those like they should.. F@cking Conspiracy.. Now Dana, and the brothers are shaking on their boots hoping Nick Doesn't retire.



    Wake Up..

    Some of my friends think that MMA is more dangerous than football, and is simply way to violent. I'm glad that I can show them videos like this of guys like GSP who prove critics wrong. MMA is actually safer than football, has more character than boxing, and the athletes are the most humble, willed, and some of the smartest people around. I'm glad I'm a fan, and to anyone who doubts this sport only doubts themselves, MMA is not about teaching people violence, its about the warrior spirit and reinforcing character through martial arts. I'm proud to call my self a fan.
