| UFC welterweight Nick Diaz says he has never paid taxes… or maybe he misspoke.
The revelation came after he talked about how poor his preparations were for UFC 158, a lopsided loss to champion Georges St-Pierre on Saturday night at the Bell Centre in Montreal. Diaz was asked whether he was considering changing fight camps.
"I can't be jumping teams. I just have to invest a little bit more, now that I have a little bit more money," the 29-year-old from Stockton, Calif., said. "You know what? I've never paid taxes in my life. I'm probably going to go to jail.”
But, he said, nobody wanted to hear that kind of talk.
"I might as well as be a kid. I've had fight after fight after fight after fight. You don't know what that does to somebody that didn't graduate high school? You don't understand," he said.
But after his speech, Diaz’s manager Cesar Gracie said he believes the fighter is mistaken.
"He has paid taxes. I think he misspoke. It's about filing,” said Gracie on The MMA Hour. “He's not in any trouble that we're aware of. We haven't gotten any notices or anything."
