Is this possible within the next couple of Lawler title defenses or if Lawler gets knocked off the throne.......as Nick wants big fights only and this observer would love to see them fight again
a TUE must be aquired beforehand, so that's a no goRobbie Hart;n21967 said:I suppose I hope/dream that diaz has some sort of exemption that is legit/credible.
sadly, something close to this.Morpheus1976;n21945 said:i think Nick is going to retire with a long suspension, Sonnen got 2 years and the NSAC dislikes nick because of his previous lawsuit
its his third failed drugstest for weed, the might send him to rehab.Rico_Cutler;n22110 said:It would be absolutely ridiculous if they give Nick a 2 year suspension for weed. Especially considering they gave Bones nothing for snorting coke. Yes I know they were two different tests but both of them did drugs OOC. One drug just happens to stay in your system 30x longer than the other.
I dont expect to see Diaz vs Lawler until after Lawler loses the belt.

when Lawler came back into the UFC, i talked about this rematch, but now the chance seems so far gone.teamquestnorth;n22289 said:You know damn well that Lawler wants revenge for that fight. I'm pretty sure that's the only time Robbies been KO'D. And by a Stockton slap? I'd want to avenge that loss.
I remember years ago watching an EliteXC promo I think it was and Diaz was fighting. He said something along the lines of "I can't go to the gas station to fill up my car without someone asking me about knocking out Robbie Lawler".
It would be a good chance for them to get some good press. Something sorely lacking lately for the NAC. Maybe they will see it that way, but it is doubtful when they have $ in their eyes.Milt;n23080 said:Does the athletic commission have to come down hard on Nick?
Between Med states and it being outright legal in 5 others, is it unreasonable to hope for a watershed moment here?
It's not like Nick was high during fight. Even if he was its not performance enhancing and no other fighters or fans give a shit.
