I don’t know, but please note that every fighter was tested for drugs of abuse and all fighters were negative." So he is only concerned with Diaz end of story. Diaz's marijuana card, Diaz's usage and not even letting him test clean. Those are Garcias main concerns “Perhaps one, some, or maybe even all fighters in the event do have a card and use marijuana.

As opposed to guys like chuck or tito or rampage (or half of america for that matter) that like to go out and get smashed instead of smoking a bowl? What exactly is the problem with this? They would never pitch this kind of shit to a guy who had a legally obtained painkiller prescription. Certainly he would never be accused of being an "addict" even though many painkillers are far more addictive. Diaz is obviously an addict who only got his 215 card to cover for this, I know plenty of his kind.
