According to Rosenfield, Diaz will be free to travel home today after an agreement to appear for trial was reached.
“Bond has been granted and posted with the full permission from the court to resume travel which, includes returning to Stockton (California) today. We appreciate how we were treated by the New Orleans Police Department, the court and their staff.”
Diaz (21-13) concluded his UFC contract in September, leaving the company after having piled up a 16-11 promotional record. He is attached to a boxing matchup with Jake Paul, which is scheduled in Dallas on Aug. 5. The younger brother of Nick Diaz was in New Orleans to support teammate Chris Avila, who was competing on the Misfits Boxing 6 card. During the event, the Stockton, California, native also had an altercation with reality TV star Chase DeMoor as widely-distributed videos show Diaz throwing a water bottle.
