Nick Diaz Chokes, No-Shows for BJJ Superfight with Braulio Estima

Estima reacts to Diaz's antics (Video: MMAFighting.com) In a way, the World Jiu-Jitsu Expo got everything they asked for last night. When you contract Nick Diaz for a bout, you sign on for a fair amount of trials and tribulations; the Nick Diaz package extends well beyond his formidable fighting skills. The very behavior that spikes a promoter?s blood pressure draws media attention and fan speculation?added interest that may not exist were it not for the Stockton native?s puzzling behavior. It?s a trade off, a roll of the dice that you make in hopes that you get the best of both worlds--the amazing prize fighter and the polarizing figure. But there?s a problem with counting on a tortured soul unable to cope with the most mundane aspects of life: you can?t count on him. If you haven?t gotten the sense that all did not go well for Nick Diaz?s BJJ superfight with Braulio Estima last night, let me spell it out for you: the bout didn?t happen. The details, as far as anyone knows, are after the jump.
