It's actually Jae Suk Lim, not Kim. MMA Weekly's report is erroneous in that regard.

Is it just me or is ElitXC/Stikeforce just one big cluster F$ck. They change cards as often as Gary Shaw changes his underwear. I realize fighters get injured, but this is messed up. I have heard this organization is a complete mess.

Beyond the obvious "who cares? it's just pot!" argument.

I have a hard time trusting that Diaz and Gary Shaw are the ones who are "right" in this case.  Obviously I don't , nor does anyone else likely to comment on the site, have all the details on exactly what is going on.

But I do know that generally you would need to turn in your prescription drug situation prior to three days out from the fight.  So it seems odd that they wouldn't have turned it in earlier.

The one argument I'm already seeing pop up is that the athletic commissions are "crooked" and trying to screw over the show.  Which is about the dumbest thing possible.  There is no reason that the state commission would be trying to anger promotions or give other promotions reasons to not hold shows there.  Money is made by the state off of these events.

I will say that these AC's can be a bit on the dickheaded side when it comes to feeling like people are playing games with them.  And Shaw can certainly come across like a guy who is trying to "slip something by" or something along those lines.  So if they felt something shady was going on they probably didn't hesitate to pull the plug on Diaz competing.

It was the UFC!  They secretly run the CSAC!!

Lmao, ADD.  My roommate had a  card for a while due to his horrendous glaucoma.
