Nate Diaz Medically Suspended Until 4/20, How Will He Celebrate His Return?

Nate Diaz Weed

It’s hard to believe that the Nevada Athletic Commission didn’t know the jokes that’d fly when they decided Nate Diaz’s medical suspension would come to an end on April 20th, better known as 4/20.

If you are new to Nate Diaz, or the Diaz brothers, they are huge advocates for marijuana. In fact, Nate’s older brother is currently serving a 1 1/2 year suspension for testing positive after his fight with Anderson Silva.

The Diaz bros have a ton of funny weed smoking quotes, so one can only assume that they’ll find a way to celebrate Nate’s return to training.
