Cryptic tweet: Did Nick Diaz retire…again?
Now it appears that Nick Diaz may again be retired from mixed martial arts, if this subtle tweet from the UFC welterweight means anything.
In early 2013 Nick Diaz proclaimed that he was retired unless he was granted a rematch with UFC champion Georges St-Pierre. A year and half later Diaz returned for a middleweight fight with Anderson Silva at UFC 184, a fight which Diaz lost by unanimous decision. Diaz also subsequently tested positive for marijuana in his post-fight drug test conducted by the Nevada Commission.
Now it appears that Nick Diaz may again be retired from mixed martial arts, if this subtle tweet from the UFC welterweight means anything:

Whether or not Diaz is retired remains to be unseen. Diaz will likely face a long suspension from the Nevada commission following another failed drug test. But does that mean we’ll never see him in the Octagon again? We’ll just have to wait and see.
