Nick Diaz remained in a Las Vegas jail Friday after being arrested for alleged domestic violence . Diaz, who was being held at Clark County Detention Center, was charged with felony domestic battery by strangulation, as well as misdemeanor domestic battery for the alleged incident. A person with knowledge of the case told MMAjunkie that 12 units were dispatched to the scene, the alleged female victim was transported to a local hospital, and Diaz was combative with officers during his arrest. In an impassioned Instagram post, Matt Staudt, who is close friends with Diaz, came to the defense of the former Strikeforce champion and attempted to discredit the victim as “deranged and insane.” If it wasn’t clear, I’ve got this guys back if he needs me always and completely. One of the best people I know, and that’s the truth, he just plays by his rules, views the world very differently than most and has been fucked constantly. Seeing how everything evolved here infuriates me.
