Kinda agree with Cesar about just fining Diaz, but I actually do believe this fight with Condit is amazing. I do care...:'[

Epicly HILARIOUS.

best interview so far and Cesar makes a lot of good points

Half ass manager! Cesar can do a phone interview to save face for Diaz but cant get him on a plane?!?!? This sport his headed toward a professional level and it needs professional fighters. If Nick can't play the part let him do what he does best, sell tickets. Let him sell tickets 'till his contract is up and then boot him down to a minor promotion.

Don't make it too obvious who your anonymous Nick Diaz rumor source is.

Very cool.

Way to get the scoop ME.

Still totally disappointed in Nick for missing out on this opportunity, but hopefully there will be another day.

See now, back in the day..yeeah, all a mixed-martial-a rtist had to do was show up to his/her goddamn fight now you get me?(also weigh-ins) Mother freak your conference/mark eting/PR bullshit.

Wow, Gracie is a king high douchebag. I love how somebody trashes everybody but the basket case and then says that he's not disrespecting anybody.

Here's a dose of reality Gracie. Your fighter was lucky to have the title fight to begin with because he doesn't deserve it. He's been fighting cans for years and he's going to get exposed by the top 5 and possibly the top 10 in the UFC.

He was lucky to get past Dailey and that fight could have gone either way. Yeah Nick is a great fighter. He sat there in the pocket and swung for his life. What a technical dynamo there. Did you teach him that or did he learn it on the playground in the second grade. It's easy to trash GSP now because he's not going to destroy your boy anymore.

Hear these words Gracie...Nick will never have a title shot because he's going to have to fight through the best to get there and guess what...he's going to get trounced. It's going to be as ugly as you and him combined.

You're team is getting systematically demolished in the UFC. Macdonald embarrassed Nate. GSP took five rounds from Shields whatever the hell the myopic judges said. And BJ is going eat up Nick like he's a freshly cut Poi.

You need to worry about why your team isn't winning in the biggest ring in the world. Don't worry too much about everybody else's back yard. Everybody else is doing just fine.

cesar is an idiot, gsp is better than penn, period.

What I dont get is, he had no problem making it to the SF Pressers, save for maybe one time, granted they werent all that far for him to travel, but to fuck up the biggenst fight of your life cuz you dont want to do a presser? Shit, almost guaranteed if he had just been straight up with Dana, the shit wouldnt have hit the fan, fuck, Dana even said he coulda understood if NIck would have just called or answer the phone. Feel kinda bad for Ceaser as its reflecting negatively on his team more then anything as so many are rippin on him for speaking the truth..talk about a fucked up situation..

nick will never fight for the belt UNTIL he proves himself dependable... dana does want the belt holder not showing up for stuff... i know it's about the 'fights' but this other stuff required of fighters is important to the ufc... grow up nick...

we want Diaz VS. GSP! Dana made a bad call he should have just fined him no its gonna cost them more

I don't necessarily like Nick Diaz as a person... but as a fighter, I think he is phenomenal. I think he's really underrated, and everyone on M.E. is saying he didn't deserve this title shot. Well, he cleared out Strikeforce's welterweights.. . so why not?
