The dreaded staph infection has struck again, this time afflicting Nick Diaz.
GracieFighter.com is reporting that Nick contracted staph a few days before his past fight in EliteXC against Mike Aina. GracieFighter reports the infection to be “severe” and notes that Diaz was admitted to a Las Vegas hospital after arriving to watch his brother Nathan fight on the last UFC Fight Night card.
I felt pretty crappy in my match in Hawaii but I figured it was jet lag or maybe something I had eaten the night before. When I left Hawaii the next day I was getting chills and had to be covered with several blankets on the plane but I just kept having cold sweats. By the time I got to Vegas the infection had ballooned up and so I went to the hospital to have it checked out. They admitted me and I’ve been here ever since.
