Troubles Mount on Nick Diaz and Dana White’s UFC 310 Amid Girlfriend’s Cry for Help

After years of inactivity, Nick Diaz was set to make his comeback to the MMA world with a fight against Vicente Luque at UFC 310. Both Nick and Luque were preparing for their battle; however, it seems that things have started to take a turn for the worse for the former Strikeforce champion. A viral video on the internet had raised serious concerns within the MMA community, including promoters and stakeholders.

The clip showed a half-nak͏ed man, who appeared to be ͏hea͏vily in͏to͏xica͏t͏ed, burning something by the roadside. The ͏footage sparked significant con͏cern beca͏u͏se the man bore a striking resemblance to Nick ͏Diaz. Initially, the com͏munity dismissed the ͏claim, but ov͏e͏r time, it became evident that th͏e͏ person in the v͏ideo was indee͏d Nic͏k Diaz, when his girlfriend made a plea for his safety online.

The promotion seems to have taken note of the situation and it appears that they have canceled the fight. "Nick Diaz vs. Vicente Luque at #UFC310 has been canceled for undisclosed reasons. The UFC is reportedly seeking a short-notice replacement fight for Luque," said on X handle.

After͏ the in͏c͏ident, Diaz͏'s long-term partner shared on her Instagram story,͏ expressing concern that dr-gs are starting to impact the belo͏ved UFC star.͏"Dr-g add-cti-n doesn't last forever. You either find sobriety or it takes your life." While the reasons for the cancelation are undisclosed, fans could make an educated guess after the events that unfolded over the last few days. Regardless, it appears that the promotion has got another fight who would love to step in the shoes of Nick Diaz.

Themba Gorimbo is ready to take on Vincente Luque at UFC 310 The promotion is looking to replace Nick Diaz with another fighter and it appears that they have got their answer even before looking drastically for it. While having a conversation with MMAFighting, Themba Gorimbo has ascertained that he is ready to step in to replace Nick Diaz on short notice. "I am here in Las Vegas right now preparing as if I am fighting on the 7th of December against Vicente Luque," said Gorimbo.

He further added, "If it so happens that Diaz doesn't show up to the party, I'm here and I'm ready. Vice versa, if Luque does not want to show up to the party, I will show up and fight Diaz. That's where I am standing right now and that's the fight I am looking at. When I left Miami, I said 'Tell Vicente Luque, I'll be waiting for him in Vegas. If it so happens that way, I'll be waiting. We're going to have a fun fight. I respect him, It's a tough fight. He has been in the UFC for a very long time, he has paid his dues. I am the new guy on the block but we are similar in age."

Leaving his family in Florida to return to Las Vegas without a concrete assurance of a fight may seem like an unusual move for Gorimbo, but it ultimately shows he's placing a bet on himself. Regardless, what's your take on the situation? Will Nick Diaz ever return to the Octagon ever again? Here's hoping 'the General' is back to lead the Nick Diaz army in good health soon.
