This is all politics. Part of it is the issue of so many fans on and off the boards are into the Diaz side of it and whether it happened this way or that way, right now the UFC is doing
PR. There is no guarantee Nick is getting any suspension time at all either. Carlos will fight who the f#ck they tell him to fight. If Dana and the goons decide he is fighting Nick he is fighting Nick the same way they decided before. If the plans change and they say hes fighting someone else than hes fighting someone else. Hes going to do what hes told. Thats why there are no parallels between this and Rashad because Rashad didnt do what he was told and it hurt him. Those days are over.
The funny thing is that if they wait until late this year and neither he nor GSP has fought in that year or more, what kind of snooze fest can we expect from these two careful b!tches.
