!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! . marijuana shoould be legalized for many reasons!!! 1. taxing marijuana if it were legal is estimated to be around 14 billion dollars a year in taxes, if it were. you would also have the criminal system less filled with people who got caught with a joint on probation. also, IF YOU CAN TELL ME SOMETHING NEGATIVE ABOUT MARIJUANA< IM READY TO HEAR IT!!!!!. there is nothing wrong at all, and it doesnt even damage the lungs. marijuana smoke is less harmful than tobacco, so in other words i would have to smoke as many joints as people with lung cancer smoke cigs (like 2 packs a day=40 joints id have to smoke for it to be as bad as a smoker, per day)... (which i do not smoke tobacco, nor do i drink often, or have i EVER tried any other illegal drug, i know my limits and i know whats right) also, it does not make people belligerent or crazy like alcohol, rather just relaxed, happy, and hungry. call it a gateway drug, but as ive said, ive never ever tried another illegal drug. so give me one reason why bud is bad?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I mean, coke and roids are fine, but pot isn't. The argument that Nick was high during his fight is ridiculous, which is why his NC was ridiculous. Make Sherk's fight an NC. Roids do permanent changes to your body to affect performance, the argument can be made forever as to how much weed "helped" Diaz. Go ask any MMA fighter if they want to get high before their next fight and see how many say "Yes" because they think it'd help.

None. Except for Drew Fickett.
Like I said I haven't seen the rulebook. If it doesn't mention anything about it that I completely agree with you. Weed gives you absolutely no advantages in a fight.

Do you really need an article to tell you that weed is not a performance enhancer? If anything, Diaz should get a medal for beating Gomi . Its hard enough to drive while high, let alone beat the crap out of a trained killer.


btw, LEGALIZE IT

The whole weed thing is ridiculous. I don't use the stuff myself, but I still think what people put in their bodies is their business, as long as it's not helping them get a competitive advantage over the next guy.

I want to get that high, too!
He tooled Gomi? Gomi landed like 4 hard ass shots and broke Diaz's face basically. The guy after the fight was too punch drunk to be his usual cocky self. Sure he landed like 50 weak ass punches, the did nothing to Gomi and Gomi's mistake was taking Diaz down. On the feet I gave the edge to Gomi because of his punching power, Diaz was doing good with his reach, but when he did get hit he fucking hit the ground. So yea, Diaz was pretty far from "tooling" Gomi.

I wish we Americans were as socially evolved as you in the Netherlands.

Experimenting with substances that alter your consciousness is part of being a human. I'm personally glad that there are responsible people experimenting with certain drugs, and natural substances.
