Hope it was worth it.

Some sweet OG kush my niqqa.. Def worth it

[NunyaBidness]

Tired of these idiots apologizing for it. At least Diaz smokes with pride.

[Kermit]

I have nothing against marijuana usage, but Jesus Christ, if keeping your job requires you not to smoke it, then don't smoke it. It will never be allowed to be in a fighter's system in a fight, ever.

Marijuana is devil weed! It's a drug not a plant! The rumor that humans have used this stuff for thousands of years is a conspiracy theory. Look at the places in the world where it has been decriminalized like B.C. and Amsterdam, there are drive by shooting's everyday! Gang's killing each other over turf! Innocent children being killed in the crossfire! Violence, political corruption, banks like HSBC and Wachovia laundering hundreds of billions in drug money for Mexican drug cartels...... Oops, or does all this stuff happen where Sweet Mary Jane is illegal?

[Kermit]

The main problem is that weed has a different effect on everyone. Say the U.S. legalizes weed everywhere, do you think that it is a good idea to say that it is ok to fight with it in your system? Sure maybe a guy smoked it 2 weeks ago and it isn't doing anything to him now, but is it fair that now your opponent can toke up before he comes out to the cage? I personally don't think that it is very safe to fight while you are high.

I've smoked weed before and always enjoyed it, but I also have some friends who acted differently when high. About 10 years ago we had a huge local softball game/tourney and a bunch of us were smoking while playing and I have to admit, it was the biggest mess of a games ever. I mean there were people striking out. At slowpitch softball. Some other guys didn't miss a beat though.

[mirinquads]

Of course they shouldn't be able to toke right before the fight. Just like you can't drink coffee before the fight just because its legal.

Hope it was a good smoke though, Healy.

Seriously though these fighters need to stand up to the commission about this. It's pants on head retarded that METABOLITES can damage you and your career like this. It makes no penetrating difference fight wise.

[Imsmarterthanu]

That's stupid marijuana isn't performance enhancing especially after the high wears off. Whoever made these rules up and labeled marijuana performance enhancing is a penetrating retard and i hope he or she dies.

That's just it though, there has got to be a line drawn somewhere. You have to have some type of rule in effect somewhere. How do you determine if a guy is fighting stoned or not? Say one guys smokes 2 days before a fight and his opponent smokes back in the locker room and is blazed during the fight?

There is too much risk to the overall organization in letting fighters fight if they would happen to be high.

And people wonder why no one takes UFC fans seriously.

[Kermit]

All it would take is ONE guy getting hurt or some crazy shit happening in a fight and them linking it to marijuana. And the firestorm would be certain to follow with someone having to answer for it. It's just not worth the risk to make it legal for fighting regardless if it helps, hurts, or does nothing to the fighter that does it.

[Rubber Guard]

It is a ridiculous banned substance. But Healy knows the rules here. Smoke all you want...these guys burn fat so much that they can toke right up to 2 weeks before test time. But why not add the an extra week just to be sure?

I agree. These guys know the rules. At least Healy still has a job. I wokred for a company for 15 years and seen 3 people fired over testing positive for pot, no second chances, no nothing. It was right there in the orientation packet and they singed it. I am sure Healy's contract said the same exact thing. The only reason it is a banned substance is because of the "You just never know" factor. Well that and the fact that is illegal in most states.

MD is someone. Someone with no social life and sits on his ass all day in front of a computer just trolling around. And he wonders why he has sciatica. Hey dumb, dumb. It's from sitting on your bum all day and not getting enough exercise. He must look like a troll as well. sideshow showed a picture of Rocky Dennis (MD). Then all of a sudden MD started to play nice with him.

You've been lifting something that's dead alright. However, pocket pool does not count as exercise.

Forgive Ron Paul guys. He doesn't know what dead-lifting is because he legitimately believes that muscular guys are just getting massive growths all over their bodies from all of the fluoridated water they're drinking.

This troll is awful. I bet nobody will claim it as his ghost since its so lame.

[Imsmarterthanu]

I just think it's shitty that someone gets 130 grand taken away from him just for smoking weed within the past 30 days or so when you have guys in the ufc taking "testosterone replacement therapy" and not getting any shit for it.

wtf that doesn't make any sense in my mind what so ever

Actually now reading through that thread I don't see anything about this. Or did you mean that I should have posted this in that thread since it was "May News"? I figured it was a topic that warranted it's own thread.

If it is not in the mma monthly thread than it sure as heck doesn't deserve its own thread. MOnthly thread is suffering a bit. Maybe Sideloader is right and MMA is dying or Vaughany hogs all the news and puts it in his thread.
