    If anyone in pro sports purposefully misses their media obligations, they'll be punished.

          “There’s a lot of hard workers I see that have trouble putting food on the table for their kids,” Gracie said. “I’ve stuck up for Nick a lot, but I can’t stick up for him on this one.”

          “I would have driven him to Vegas if it came to that,” Gracie said. “I don’t care. He just turned his phone off and acted like a little kid. It just doesn’t cut it.”

          “Nick is like family to me. We’re going to have a long discussion, hopefully with Dana, to see if he’s still in the UFC or not. But let’s face it, Nick is 28 years old. I talked to Dana about this before, and I think a big problem with all of this is Nick has social anxiety. He doesn’t like to go and be away from home. He has no trouble fighting in the cage, though,” “You can’t just not show up and [not] tell anyone anything.”

          “He doesn’t feel comfortable being around people,” he said. "He has a very deep ingrained social anxiety, and it’s something he probably needs help for, I think. I think that’s why he self-medicates himself with the marijuana. That’s my amateur opinion.

          “He did the same crap with Paul Daley and a couple other guys. It was the same Nick Diaz. It’s not the pressure of fighting GSP. It’s the pressure of doing a news conference before the fight. Fighting is no pressure because he gets to beat someone up or get beat up.”

          “I’ve always been there to facilitate things for him and stuck up for him even when he was wrong. If I were him, I would be calling Dana at some point basically begging for my job and giving [me] another chance to fight for the title.”

              Well, Diaz loses money by being bounced from the main event.

                  UFC once again throwing away free money, Diaz actually has personality, the dude is off, that's him, use it morons

                  Nick is the ultimate anti hero, the perfect foil for GSP and what he needs, let diaz be diaz, let GSP handle the other stuff, wear his suit, smile, etc...good job blowing a great match up with an interesting story line from a guy who has a loyal fan base

                  Yeah for GSP vs Condit, it's the fight game, let the fighters fight

                    LOL.

                    You act as if Diaz came to the pressers but UFC forgot to show up.

                    Dude is a nut, he flaked, the show must go on. Who's to say he even shows up for the fight? You can't play chicken with a PPV main event.

                        I don't care about the presser, but the issue is whether or not this crazy m'fer shows up for the fight.

                                Yes, that's why he is great, like I said, you can't make this stuff up, the fight would have been even more interesting than it already was
