A conflict emerged within the circle of former UFC fighter Nick Diaz following public allegations made by a woman who claims to be his girlfriend. A woman identified as Kay or Kayla posted on social media that Diaz was taken medicine by her cousin Reuben Diaz and carried her to a rehabilitation facility in Mexico against his will.

She argued that Diaz is currently trapped in the facility, trying to escape, and that communication with him is severely restricted. According to her statement, she cannot speak directly to Diaz and will only receive updates through his cousin. She also insisted that Diaz wanted rehabilitation in California, not Mexico.
These allegations prompted responses from Nick Diaz’s recovery and conditioning coach Jose Garcia. Garcia dismissed his girlfriend’s claims and questioned the validity of the scenario in which Diaz could be dragged and forced to take him to Mexico. He publicly urged her to stop posting emotional content about Diaz, accusing her of causing more harm than good. The exchange between Garcia and Kayla escalated on social media, with the parties making personal accusations.
“Please leave. You’ve done more damage than help. You need treatment yourself. You need mental health professionals to help you heal from all your trauma and burs*t (stop posting)!”
“I really did check it out at the end, so I kissed him on my lips and brought Nick back to life.
Diaz’s longtime coach Cesar Gracie also dealt with this situation. Gracie posted a recent photo with Diaz, stating that Diaz is healthy and healthy. He further revealed that Diaz had not been lured or cloned and had no girlfriend. Gracie’s statement was intended to counter rumors about Nick Diaz’s condition and to reassure the public.
Nick Diaz’s family and other members of the inner circle have expressed no concern about his safety. Nick’s brother Nate Diaz was posted from the wedding event and there are no warnings or signs of distress regarding the situation. This lack of concern from Diaz’s close peers contributes to skepticism about his girlfriend’s allegations.
The allegations have been widely spread on social media, leading to speculation and rumors. Some claims include references to organized crime and other extreme scenarios, but none have been demonstrated. Kayla has tried to support her claims by sharing videos and screenshots that suggest an ongoing relationship with Nick Diaz, but most of the content appears to have been outdated or re-uploaded. There is no evidence that Diaz is following her on social media or publicly acknowledging the relationship.
Nick Diaz has not commented publicly on the issue. His silence left his coach and family to deal with the rumors. The situation also brought new attention to Dias’ past struggles between substance use and mental health, which had previously influenced his mixed martial arts career.
At this time, there is no independent confirmation of the girlfriend’s claims. Statements from Diaz’s coach and family and recent photos show that he is healthy and trained and not an immediate risk. The allegations remained unexamined, with those closest to Diaz dismissing the story as unfounded. The situation continues to develop, but the available evidence does not support the claim that Diaz is being held against his will in Mexico.
