Today Nick Diaz received a strong vow of support from a powerful man in Nevada, state Senator Tick Segerblom speak out against the actions of the NSAC:
TMZ Sports spoke with Senator Tick Segerblom of Senate District 3 — which includes parts of Las Vegas — who says he’s not happy with the punishment doled out by the Nevada State Athletic Commission.
“I think what they did was totally inappropriate,” Tick says … “[marijuana] is a recognized medicine in the Nevada constitution so how can you punish someone for taking medicine, particularly since it doesn’t enhance your ability to fight?”
He added, “They need to rethink this punishment and then ultimately change their rules.”
