Ronda Rousey Tweets Support for Nate Diaz: ‘Everyone Knows You’re Clean’

October 27, 2019 | Posted by Jeffrey Harris

As previously reported, UFC fighter Nate Diaz has been cleared for his scheduled fight against Jorge Masvidal at UFC 244 next month. The US Anti-Doping Agency ultimately ruled that Diaz did not commit a violation after an atypical finding of a banned substance, Ligandrol, in an out of competition test that was conducted in November. Diaz has also found another supporter in former UFC champion and WWE Raw women’s champion, Ronda Rousey. Rousey expressed her support for Diaz over the weekend on her Twitter account.

Ronda Rousey wrote in response to Diaz’s earlier statement on the issue, “Everyone knows you’re clean, f*** cheaters, PEDs are for P-U-S-S-I-E-S.”

As of now, the Diaz vs. Masvidal fight is scheduled to go forward as planned on Saturday, November 2. The event will be held at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The event will be broadcast live on pay-per-view via ESPN+.
