Nick Diaz could be back in the Octagon by summer.
The Nevada Athletic Commission reduced its penalty against Diaz after a settlement agreement Tuesday during a meeting. Diaz will be suspended 18 months (retroactively) and fined $100,000 in his marijuana case, stemming from a positive test at UFC 183 on Jan. 31, 2015, sources told MMA Fighting.
