Nick Diaz's attorney and the Nevada Athletic Commission (NAC) are in discussion about a settlement in the Diaz drug case.
On Friday, Diaz's disciplinary hearing was postponed for another month after the NAC granted his team a continuance. Diaz's attorney Lucas Middlebrook and Nevada deputy attorney general Christopher Eccles have been in talks about a settlement and one could be reached before a potential hearing next month, Middlebrook said.
Diaz tested positive for marijuana metabolites after his UFC 183 loss to Anderson Silva on Jan. 31 in Las Vegas. It was his third time popping for weed in Nevada and Diaz was handed down suspensions and fines in 2007 and 2012.
