It doesnt matter if we think the rule is right or not, what matters is the fact that he has been busted for this in the past so he has to know the rule and he still smoked recently enough. Put the bong down for a month and then fight dont be stupid, pass the stupid pee test that main event fighters are given!!
Or at least apply for the "Thereputic use exemption". Might have been able to save his ass since he has a card and all
By the way MJ does give you an unfair advantage over non-user. This forum is filled with people who discuss the benefits of smoking weed on their recovery. Also smoking weed could easily be the catalyst for Nick to not to go completely bananas which would ruin his composure and training regimen. As an example I knew people who were alcoholics and were extremely successful salesman if they had some alcohol in their system. Without alcohol they would be in a horrible mood, very irritable, they would never smile or want to talk to anybody, they would not sell shit and get fired. Although alcohol is not a PED in their case it was being used as such.
you know I agree with the alcohol argument I mean someone can get str8 black out drunk the night before then fight the next day and not be hassled or charged but if some one takes a puff weeks before and stays sober leading up to the fight no alcohol even , he still will get in trouble such a crock of shit Im almost glad this happend, only in the sense that it just disproves the whole stoners are lazy (which most of us on here know from the get go) and shows the BS in the laws
PS hes got a fucking medical marijuana card
^^ so technically you believe that orange juice is a PED since it can prevent you from getting thirsty and getting irritable from being thirsty and just go on a being in a horrible mood because their thirsty.and Im not even gonna bring up the Vitamin C thats just terrorizing our kids

Correct me if i'm wrong, but doesn't he use marijuana for his ADHD? The prescription drug they use to treat ADHD is Adderal, a combination of dextroamphetamine and amphetamine. Is Adderal on the banned substances list? Why would an athletic commission allow an amphetamine to be in his system and not the safer option of marijuana? Amphetamine's are way harder on an athlete's body and can absolutely act as a PED in the cage.
damn this is a fucking silly country and planet we live on, Weed, come on man, illegal drugs are a law inforcement issue not a athletic commission issue, if it aint steroids it's none of the athletic commission's business,
