Dana sez
Welcome to another edition of Dana Sez, where Dana White declares what's what and MMA websites farm his word crops for a bountiful news harvest. First up, his position on the Alistair Overeem situation:
"I will snap and freak out and I don’t want to do that," White told reporters following the conclusion of the press conference. "I don’t want to talk about it. I’m too upset about it. Seriously, I can’t talk about it."
...
"Everybody gets due process," White said. "Alistair Overeem will have his due process with the Nevada State Athletic Commission. We’ll see what happens and we’ll go from there. When it all goes down, somebody else will speak about this. Not me."
It doesn't sound like Dana White is too impressed with Alistair Overeem's plans to make a legal runaround on his positive UFC 146 drug test. Which is nice because it makes the UFC prez's next statement about random testing sound slightly less bullsh*t:
"I have 375 fighters in every country all over the world. The battle that I have to get these guys to get their [expletive] bout agreements back and show up for press is un[expletive]believable. The fact that I have to make personal phone calls to tell guys to talk to the [expletive] press. Now I'm going to start making personal phone calls to go show up for random drug tests? The general public and the media need to grasp some [expletive] concept of reality, okay? The reality of us doing all the [expletive] things that we're doing, when we already have the gold standard in drug testing, and then trying to chase 375 guys all over the world to randomly test them too? It's impossible," White said.
The UFC having the 'gold standard' in drug testing just tells you how miserable testing is across the rest of the sports world. Unfortunately, we're still in this wierd place where government run commissions are the ones responsible for testing and they're doing a wholly inadequate job.
Putting the UFC in charge of it's own testing doesn't seem like the optimal solution either. That's why they've put their support behind a new international federation that can replace their self-regulation for European shows. Are these guys going to be any better at catching cheaters as American commissions? Probably not. Oh steroids. You sticky wicket.
Fans have talked about the idea of international feeder leagues for a while now and it looks like Dana and the Fertittas are starting to toy with the idea:

Jon Jones and Rashad Evans jaw at each other
The general impression I'm getting from UFC fans is the Jon Jones / Rashad Evans feud got old sometime around the end of 2011 and now it's just kinda played out. That's not to say people aren't excited about the fight - it's just the hype that's all been there done that. Can Jon and Rashad re-ignite our interest in their hatred of each other? UFC Insider does it's best to make it so.

You haven’t announced whether or not you’re retiring from MMA yet, have you?
No, I haven’t. I think it’s really nice for me to get into this new career. I know I can’t make a living fighting, nor would I want to make a living fighting for the rest of my life. Plus it’s been a decade now. I don't know if you’ve been reporting or doing something for 10 years, but after you do it long enough and you find something else to put your energy towards, it’s just like starting over but it’s fresh and you have the energy all of a sudden to do it.
...
With fighting, do you have to declare you’re in or retired? Can’t you just fight if you want and take a break if you want?
That’s the way I look at it. I don’t want to be one of those people that says, “Oh, I retire. Okay, I’m back. Oh, I retire. Okay, I’m back.” I’m just like okay, this is what I’m doing right now. Who knows what’s going to come after it? I really haven’t really gotten that far yet.

Nick Diaz wants this weed thing dealt with
Up until this point, fighters haven't had the best record when going up against athletic commissions. A lot of dudes have appeared with sob stories or reasonable explanations and been sent home with the same suspension they'd have landed if they hadn't shown up at all. But Nick Diaz's gameplan seems a little different. He's going to lawyer his way through this thing, and now his lawyer has gone on the offensive:
The law does not permit the NSAC to suspend our client indefinitely pending a hearing and determination of the complaint, but imposes a reasonable and definite time limit when which the complaint must be heard and determined. By enactment effected May 22, 2009, Nevada’s legislator amended NRS 233B.127(3) to provide that “[p]roceedings relating to the order of summary suspension must be instituted and determined within 45 days after the date of the order unless the agency and the licensee mutually agree in writing to a longer period.” [emphasis added] (Prior to this amendment, the time limitation was that the proceedings be instituted and determined “promptly”.) Requests for documents, including documents which are not relevant to the matters in dispute and which are protected by statutory and common law privilege, do not operate to extend the time limit within which a hearing must be held pursuant to the statutory limitation.
The final day for the hearing and determination of the NSAC’s complaint against Mr. Diaz was therefore April 6th, 2012 — 45 days after the date of the Summary Suspension Order. In discussions with Mr. Kizer, following the Summary Suspension Order, Mr. Kizer informed me and others that this matter would be placed on the NSAC’s April agenda. Our client was and is confident that there is no basis for disciplinary action against him and therefore did not object to a delay beyond the required 45 day time limit as long as the matter was heard and determined in April.
However, our client objects to any further delay.
We presume that the NSAC will comply with its statutory obligation to have this matter heard on April 24th, 2012. If not, my client takes the position that the NSAC has by virtue of its delay irrevocably elected to discontinue or abandon its complaint against Mr. Diaz. The NSAC has no authority to hear or determine the complaint at a later date, and any such purported hearing or determination of the complaint would be ultra vires the NSAC’s statutory powers.
It will still be interesting to see how all this plays out when Diaz gets his day in front of the NSAC. They're sticklers for rules, but is that only when the rules swing their way? Or do they just cherry pick what they want and ignore what's inconvenient? While Nick's lawyer has done a helluva job interpreting the NSAC rules in his client's favor, it's the commission who gets final say on how they interpret their own regulations.

Fedor is probably fighting Rolles Gracie
Fans hoping for a Fedor miracle for UFC 146 are liable to be disappointed. Not only is it becoming mind-bogglingly apparent that the UFC is really going to try and salvage Dos Santos vs Overeem, but Fedor's June fight in Russia has started to take shape. So who is he fighting?
In case you don't remember Rolles, he fought Joey Beltran two years ago in a match that was so bad the UFC cut him after only the one fight. Since then he has semi-redeemed himself against journeymen opponents, most recently taking out supercan Bob Sapp. But all that just kinda underscores the fact that Gracie is not a worthy opponent for Fedor by any stretch of the imagination. He's just a bankable last name M-1 hopes to make some money off.
So what happened to rumors that Fedor would fight Bobby Lashley? Funny story: Lashley will instead be fighting at the next Super Fight League event against James Thompson. I guess it's better to be the can-crusher than the can.
