How is this even possible? Both suspended a year but Nick's financial punishment is $77,000 more for inactive traces of marijuana than whatever Feijao tested positive for? Doesn't make sense. Can someone please explain this? 
isnt this like the 2nd or 3rd strike for Diaz?
fuck the system
One thing is two different groups of people in charge of that shit. One is Cali the other is Nevada.
Different Athletic Commissions.

Percentages....how the fuck do they work?

Nick was fined 30%.
I assume CSAC just gave down a flat fee. Its not because of the percetage it comes down to the athletic commission. CSAC ruled Feijao's case. NSAC ruled Diaz's.
what did Feijao test positive for and did he have any prior history of lying to the commission or testing positive?
Maximum fine in California is $2500 
mestregruber - Maximum fine in California is $2500Interesting hard to think why this commission is near bankrupt.
The reason it is possible are as follows:
1 it is based on percentages. Nick makes more he is fined more.
2 It was Nick's second failed test for the same thing.
3. Nick's large fine came from a completely seperate state with a different AC.
This arguement is dumb. It is a false comparison. You need to compare the % of both fines from Nick's first offense when he popped in Cali where Feijao did.
I'm sitting here trying to make a sensible post, and getting nowhere. Remember when Chael Sonnen went in front of this very same california commission? And he told them he had a deal with Keith Kizer and let him go on it blah blah blah... Keith Kizer says "(obviously paraphrasing) I have never personally spoken with Chael he is full of shit."
Fast forward barely two years -
Chael is a special advisor or whatever his douchebag title is, guys like Nick get fucked, although that is a different article, and now we argue about the fine?!?!?!?!
get serious about it.
Fraud is going down!

1. The percentage theory was already debunked in this thread.
2. I agree a second offense made the penalty steeper but on the real we're talking about weed and he wouldn't even had gotten in trouble by WADA standards which is what NSAC claims to use as their guidelines.
3. He popped in Nevada both times. PRIDE 33, the event he fought Gomi and tested positive for the first time was held in Las Vegas, not CA.
P4PKING -CSAC is about to be bankruptUGCTT_the people's cecil -Didn't Diaz also get fined on a 300k bonus. Did you take that IMO account or just his disclosed pay?RaginRedneck169 -Feijao made $66,000 (includes $33,000 win bonus). $2500 is only 3.7% of $66,000 and 7.5% of his base $33,000.UGCTT_SidRival - How is this even possible?
