So he's not suspended after all say some espn sources.

Masvidal tweeted him saying he knows he's clean and to fight anyways.

Nate Diaz has not been provisionally suspended by USADA, the UFC's anti-doping partner, despite an adverse drug-test finding that Diaz announced himself Thursday, sources told ESPN.

"UFC and USADA are gathering information and will issue a statement as soon as possible," USADA spokesperson Adam Woullard told ESPN.

Sources told ESPN that Diaz tested positive for trace amounts of a prohibited selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM). In his post Thursday, Diaz adamantly denied knowingly taking any banned drugs.

The news that USADA has not suspended Diaz keeps the fight between him and Masvidal in play. The ultimate decision could come down to Diaz himself, sources said.

"I only take Whole Foods or natural food supplements," Diaz wrote. "I don't even eat meat. So until UFC, USADA or whoever is F---ING with me fixes it I won't be competing."

Diaz went on to write that he was told to hide the drug-test results or keep it quiet until after the fight and he didn't want to do that. He did not specify who told him to do that. Sources told ESPN that the New York State Athletic Commission (NYSAC) was unaware of Diaz's adverse drug-test finding until he went public with his statement. The NYSAC did not return a request for comment.

"I don't give a f--- about some money over my dignity and my legacy," Diaz wrote. "I'm not playing along with this bulls---. I'm not staying quiet and figuring it out after the fight. That's cheating."
