    Everyone is bant from MMA ...

    I got a hair up my ass and decided to see how many fighters have been bant over the last few years for failing their drug tests. The results were shocking ... simply shocking. Even my hero Bas Rutten has had the bant put on 'em.

    Diphenhydramine? Is a bannable substance, I use that often for my allergies I guess I could never be an MMA fighter...

    wait I use a bunch of other stuff......DOOOOHHH!!!, so I guess I'd be really out of luck, although in the Navy I passed every drug test (dozen or more) they made me take....

    lol?
    Lol yeah. I don't like Diaz after seeing his post Sanchez fight interview and after reading some of his out of the cage antics. He said "I'm not a bitch" in a video interview as his excuse for throwing a non-fan a beating in a club after the fan talked smack at him. It was not like the guy called him out or was off the charts insulting, it was a minor passing comment ... yet Diaz frew him a beating. ANY fighter is going to get smack-talked as he gets known. NO fighter should use his MMA skills to deal with that.

    I don't agree with that. If somebody is dumb enough to insult a professional MMA fighter to his face, he deserves a beat down. Hell, That goes for anyone who insults a stranger without provocation.

    You're getting pretty big now. You will get huge as time passes. If you work some kind of MA or MMA into your lifestyle ... would you feel it's okey to put the smack-dab on whomever? I don't see it that way. With that power and skill comes the responsibility and need of restraint IMHO.

    A true mmartist would never risk a fight outside of a controlled environment for many reasons. They could be injured, or ruin their image.

    You can't really argue with the old saying "with power comes responsibility."

    Guillard tested postive for Cocaine and I'm sure he will be banned for a few months as a result.

    Diaz tested postitive for THC and the comission felt he was high at the time of the fight and turned it into a no contest. That's quite rare as steroids or pain killers should also directly affect a fight.

    Lots of people teting positive for THC but does it really enhance performance?

    We're talking about mixed martial artists here, not Spiderman.

    Mixed martial artists are humans too, I don't see why they would have to endure mental or physical abuse just because they learned how to throw a punch properly.

    Now I'm not saying go out looking for fights, but if someone deserved to get punched in the face to begin with, I have no problem with a MM Artist doing it.

    Was Nick necessarily right? I don't know, and I guess we never really will. I'm defintely not standing up for him, but there is a time and place for everything and I personally wouldn't look down on someone for kicking a shit talkers ass. Ask and ye shall receive...


    And that word metabolite they use in these reports is such a bullshit word. They use it to create the illusion that these people are ingesting these drugs for a different reason than just getting fucked up. THC and Cocaine metabolite? Bullshit. Try he smoked a joint, or snorted a line.

    It has nothing to do with him being a MMA fighter. As a man and human being he should know what self restraint is. If the person didn't attack him physically he has no reason to do so in turn. It's that kind of attitude that leads to worse and worse fields of thought. Well "they might have WMDs", so we're going to kill them. I seriously doubt any person has said something that warranted a punch in the face. Who cares what people say? Talk all the smack you want to me, in front of anyone, and I don't care. Just don't touch me. Period.

    Those are my rules now. Talk shit to me and I will most likely let you make it through the night in one piece ... but touch me or mine and you're fucked. Don't even talk smack to the people I'm with or consider being rude to the women ... ... and I'm just some guy. Diaz is an MMA pro ... besides being a bitch.

    But hey we are all different ... it's what keeps the place from getting boring.

    I know plenty of people that have said enough to warrant punching them in the face, and I have shown restraint on many levels. Then there is the guy that crosses the line, and he gets smacked down.

    This has nothing to do with WMD's.... That was money driven, and is a horrible analogy for the point at hand.

    Whoever the guy is that talked shit to Diaz is an idiot. Nick is the first dude that comes to mind I'd expect to attack a fan. And he lost to Diego so he was probably in a pissy mood.

    Well that's the thing about these MM Artists that's not fair. They are far more accessible than your average sports star, in turn there is far more chance of an idiot fan getting in their face and starting shit. Not to mention the caliber of the idiots that show up for these events...

    People see these guys and think, "holy shit, he's small, I can take him, now let's see how far I can push him."

    Fuck restraint. That guy deserves an ass beating for being so ignorant.
