The Nevada State Athletic Commission voted to no longer discipline fighters and boxers for using cannabis, according to ESPN.
The new policy begins Wednesday and it is not retroactive to cases that have not yet been formally judged. Edward Magaw, Nevada's senior deputy attorney general, gave the NSAC the freedom via a memo to decide whether or not it would discipline fighters for marijuana.
The policy change — according to Magaw — will take place immediately and will be later noted in the commission's regulations. With the move, NSAC joins the Florida State Boxing Commission in not punishing its fighters using marijuana.
