Actually, no. The seemingly draconian sentence handed down by Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) to Nick Diaz for his third infraction for positive testing of marijuana metabolites is likely to be significantly reduced.
According to Amy Dardashtian, the legal correspondent who broke this story earlier this week via Twitter, NSAC is close to caving from public pressure.
"Multiple sources are telling us that basically public pressure got to this commission with at least one of the commission members receiving death threats," Dardashtian told "Inside MMA" in a Friday interview.
According to her sources, Diaz is in settlement negotiations with NSAC commission members and Nevada's attorney general.
