UFC suspends Nate Diaz for 30 days and $20,000 after his homophobic tweet following news about what happened after another fight.

The UFC suspends Nate Diaz because of the tweet that said, "I feel bad for Pat Healy that they took an innocent man's money away and I think the guy who took the money is the biggest (homosexual slur) in the world."

What Diaz was referring to was what happened after UFC 159, when Pat Healy defeated Jim Miller via submission. Healy was rewarded $130,000 extra as a bonus for Submission of the Night and Fight of the Night, until he tested positive for marijuana following the fight, which Diaz took to twitter and then the UFC suspends Nate Diaz for his comments on the matter.

The $65,000 originally intended for Healy for Submission of the Night was transferred to Bryan Caraway. Caraway lobbied for the bonus and voiced his opinion about the test for marijuana and Diaz didn't like what Caraway did.  

"We are very disappointed by Nate Diaz's comments, which are in no way reflective of our organization," the UFC said in a statement on Thursday. "Nate is currently suspended pending internal investigation and we will provide further comment once the matter has been decided."

The 28-year-old Diaz was the winner of "The Ultimate Fighter 5" and ranked seventh in the lightheavyweight division by Sherdog.

In a release on Friday, the UFC detailed the disciplinary action taken against Diaz for violating the promotion's code of conduct policy, according to Yahoo.  Diaz is suspended for 30 days and fined $20,000.

"UFC lightweight Nate Diaz has received an immediate 90-day suspension and $20,000 fine for violating the UFC's fighter code of conduct," the UFC's statement said. "The language used in his tweet was regrettable, offensive and inconsistent with the values and culture of the organization, and is not tolerated."
