#3 Nick Diaz
An MMA list on all things dumb is incomplete without a Diaz brother. Nick Diaz is a grappling savant and a great boxer. He is also the undisputed king at making excuses. Prior to his UFC 158 fight against Georges St. Pierre, Diaz and his camp claimed that GSP was on steroids.
Furthermore, after losing a decision to GSP, Diaz went on to claim that the Quebec Athletic Commission in Canada sanctioned the fight even though GSP missed weight. What makes this claim absurd is that GSP weighed in front of several hundreds of people present at the weigh-ins, apart from the Commission officials.
Add to this the ‘Strikeforce’ brawl. Nick Diaz plus Jason ‘Mayhem’ Miller equals mayhem and all-around madness. Nick, Nate Diaz, Jake Shields and the rest of the ‘Scrap Pack’ had no business beating up someone on national TV.
Add to this the fact that the person getting mugged was ‘Mayhem’ Miller, and you have an even bigger mess on your hands. Apart from the occasional brawl outside the Octagon, Diaz also has a habit of flunking his fight week drug tests for Marijuana; that leads him to lose thousands of dollars in the process.
Losing thousands of hard-earned dollars, just because you can’t lay down the pipe for a week sounds like something only the Diaz bros would do.
