You ever roll high? It's a PED!!!

There's a reason a lot of the top BJJ competitors worldwide smoke herb, it'll the improve the flow, creativeness and technique of your game.

It's a PED.

Nick wasn't high during the fight. Why can't you understand that? Phone Post

whadabout cocaine?

You clearly do not understand what I am saying.

Are people on steroids during the fight??? No, generally they cycle off it and use it to enhance their training, recovery ect . . .

So if Nick used pot to enhance his BJJ skills then it's the exact same thing.

Lots of people get high before they roll believing it will improve their game. I'm sure Diaz has done this at some point in his life.

Am I against it? No, but there is a point to be made there.

Goofy comparison.

 pure spectulation at this point,but if u say so

Fuck get Bravo's take on it. It improves your game, I would think a guy with the name MMArijuana would know the benefits of rolling high but you probably don't train.

Jeff Glover strangles high level competition while stoned, I would say it has a performance enhancing effect on some people.

Doesn't marijuana ease pain? It 100% relaxes you so sure as hell its a ped. I have no problem with marijuana but in sports terms its a ped.

BAN!

 how good would he be if he didnt?

"[Marijuana] is banned because of the damage it does to the person taking it," said Keith Kizer, Nevada State Athletic Commission Executive Officer to the L.A. Times. "It could make you lethargic, slow your reflexes, and those are dangerous things in a combat sport."





sounds like a ped 

Damn it Cybord never did weed why is she getting some much flak? FUCKIN WEED DIAZ!? WTF IF IT WAS STEROIDS I WOULD OF BEEN COOL WITH IT

It's clear that most of the people here that will talk badly about marijuana comparing it to a PED really don't have a clue about how marijuana will affect you. If you have read about marijuana being used as a painrelief for people with HIV or something like that you make the assumption that it works like a painkiller, lol at that.



Marijuana is a disadvantage if fighting, that is clear as anything, reflexes will not be as sharp and I say a kick would probably hurt even more. Please don't compare marijuana with PEDs it's just stupid, marijuana is an illegal substance by federal law and that's why it's being banned, not because of the advantage it gives you.



Nick was most likely not high when he fought Carlos, that would surprise me a lot, why would he do that to himself, doesn't make sense?

MMArijuana - Goofy comparison.

Smoke weed every day, improve your BJJ. PED. Don't smoke while fighting, no shit. If you feel the need to point this out you don't get it.

I'm pro weed, I smoke to improve my game. Works for a lot of people but not everyone.

I'm smoking weed, an illegal substance, to get better at a sport I'm performing in. Hence a performance enhancing drug.

Bunch of butthurt hippies on this thread.

Have you ever smoked? You have the best nights sleep ever. So if Nick was smoking leading up to the fight to help relax himself and ensure a great nights sleep because he was so amped or nervous, then he's using a mind and body altering drug that is helping him illegally. Phone Post

Because Keith Kizer is an expert on Marijuana, right? No, he is not and Marijuana is not a PED. Phone Post

It helps ease chronic pain like back pain or it can relieve headaches and stomach aches, etc, but in general it does not ease all kinds of pain. I have done very stupid things while high when I was younger and definitely felt a great deal of pain.

Also, the effects are different from person to person. Some people get lethargic and slow while others, like Bravo, have a sense of an open mind and can flow easier in grappling. It also depends on the strain because no two types affect the same person the same way. Keep in mind that Eddie Bravo is a very high level grappler with a great fundamental understanding of Jiu-Jitsu. Any random person who smoked and then rolled would probably have a miserable time.
