Keith Kizer Confirms One Positive Drug Test From UFC 143

Nevada State Athletic Commission Executive Director Keith Kizer confirmed to Mauro Ranallo's The MMA Show that one drug test came back positive from this past weekend's UFC 143 card. Kizer then stated that there would be a release coming this afternoon on the matter.

This only fuels the flames of the controversy surrounding the Carlos Condit rematch against Nick Diaz. Media sources have been circulating that Diaz was not able to take the rematch, but the only reason that was tossed out the window was the notion that Nick was injured. Whether Nick is sticking to his retirement remains to be seen, but this could be one of the alternative reasons as to why Diaz cannot take this fight.

Here are the tweets that The MMA show sent out. Let the speculation begin.

BREAKING: Keith Kizer of NSAC confirmed to @themmashow w/ @mauroranallo there was one positive drug test from #UFC143. Couldn't say who.

...Kizer also told @themmashow w/ @mauroranallo there would be a release from the NSAC later this afternoon. Let the speculation begin.

We'll have more for you as the story breaks.

No disagreements here. If anything, the commission should shake their head at Nick for wanting to fight at such a disadvantage.

Who says it’s Nick? Riddle looked pretty out of it after his fight. It could even be Condit. He thought he won.

No, Condit was on the after fight med suspension list.

Nick was the only one not on it.
It’s Nick

what a joke, they shouldn't even bother testing for weed

the only thing weed makes you do better is eat and watch tv

Someone said they thought he smoked weed to help his weight cut.

I just laughed, anyone who has smoked weed knows, you DO NOT want the munchies when you’re cutting weight.

they’re obviously not smoking, so it’s funny when they comment on it.
