Floyd Mayweather was downright flabbergasted when he learned UFC star Nick Diaz had been suspended for 5 years after testing positive for weed ... and his reaction was all caught on video.

Floyd was talking to the Mayweather Boxing Channel when he was informed about the punishment handed out by the Nevada State Athletic Commission ... and responded:

"HUH!?!?"

He continued, "Man, let that man smoke weed and enjoy his life."

Finally, Floyd and Ronda Rousey are on the same page ...

A Nevada state senator is coming out swinging in defense of UFC superstar Nick Diaz -- claiming his 5 year ban for weed is a complete load of crap.

TMZ Sports spoke with Senator Tick Segerblom of Senate District 3 -- which includes parts of Las Vegas -- who says he's not happy with the punishment doled out by the Nevada State Athletic Commission.

"I think what they did was totally inappropriate," Tick says ... "[marijuana] is a recognized medicine in the Nevada constitution so how can you punish someone for taking medicine, particularly since it doesn’t enhance your ability to fight?"

He added, "They need to rethink this punishment and then ultimately change their rules."

FYI -- Diaz tested positive for weed after his UFC 183 fight in January.

Suspended UFC star Nick Diaz just found his first celeb defender ... and maybe someone to smoke with ... 'cause Katt Williams is coming out strong for weed-blazing athletes saying it's not fair to ban them for toking up.

As we previously reported ... the Nevada Athletic Commission slapped Diaz with a 5-year suspension after he tested positive for pot after UFC 183.

We got Katt out at LAX and he told us the suspension is TOTAL BS ... saying that the hammer should only fall on athletes that enhance performance ... not junk food consumption.

Matthew McConaughey's older brother Rooster just scored a year's supply of Miller Lite for naming his son after the brew ... but it may not last very long.

Rooster is what you'd call a Miller Lite superfan. He's always got a can in his hand, even on his new reality series "West Texas Investors Club." So, it's not outlandish he named his son Miller Lyte.

The folks at Miller Lite caught wind of Rooster's brand loyalty and they're sending him 24 cases ... what they consider a year supply. Here's the thing ... each case of Miller Lite has 24 cans and if you do the math, that's 576 beers ... or 1.5 beers a day.

Something tells us it's more like a seasonal supply for Rooster.

Lindsay Lohan just went down in flames in spectacular fashion, after a judge threw out her defamation lawsuit against Fox News Channel for claiming she and her mom did cocaine together.

Lindsay and mama Dina sued for comments made on FNC back in February 2014 when a guest said, "Lindsay Lohan's mom is doing cocaine with her." The guest also called Dina an enabler.

The judge in the case on Friday shut Lindsay down, saying, "Truth is a defense."

The judge also dismissed the case Dina filed, saying she's a public figure, the comment wasn't made maliciously. It probably didn't help that Lindsay once made a frantic call to her dad in the back of a limo, saying Dina was there and, "Mom's on cocaine."

One thing ... the judge threw out Lindsay and Dina's lawsuit against FNC and Sean Hannity. As for the guest who made the comment, it's unclear if her case was thrown out as well.

Jessica Simpson wasn't drunk during her HSN debut and you'd know that if you watched the entire two-hour segment ... which would be more painful than eating glass.

Sources close to Jessica say the clip circulating of her giggling and slurring is just part of her personality that surfaces from time to time. They say for the lion's share of her time on the show, she was lucid and polished.

They say 2 hours without a script creates inevitable less than perfect moments.

An HSN source also says she was not drunk.

Fact is ... HSN is singing her praises, saying Jessica really knows how to drive a sale.

Justin Bieber's promotional tour touched down in Amsterdam, and you know what that means ... he HAD to score some coffee -- and by that, we mean marijuana.

Now, we don't know if Biebs indulged or inhaled, but he and DJ Martin Garrix hit up the Greenhouse Coffee Shop where menu highlights include: New York Diesel, Train Wreck, Super Silver Haze, El Nino, Temple Balls, and to wipe your mind clean on the way out -- Amnesia Haze.

No coffee? What do you mean?

Scott Disick was 3 sheets to the wind Thursday as he left The Nice Guy in West Hollywood just before 2 AM ... and he clearly struggled to resolve a perplexing female situation.

Two women were in Scott's car when he approached, and he seemed annoyed. What's unclear ... was he pissed that they were random chicks in waiting, or that they were in his seat.

Either way, Scott decided they'd do, but only if they were in their proper place.

A Hollywood Hills mansion, abandoned for years and reputed to be haunted, now serves as a pot-lover's paradise after the current resident opened his doors to puffers and passers.

The pad was rented in June for more than $10k/month by a guy named Michael Straumietis, the CEO of Advanced Nutrients. Michael, who goes by Marijuana Don, almost immediately opened his joint, hosting weekly pot parties for people with medical cards.

The parties are crazy ... with a seemingly endless supply of plants, edibles, oils and hash. And fear not -- Michael has the munchie department covered ... with crab legs, breads, meats and cheeses.

The mansion is 9,800 sq. ft. with a six car garage and 200 bottle wine cellar. The property is a thing of mystery to those in LA, with stories of Satanic activity and unearthly beings inhabiting it.

Nick Diaz might never step in the Octagon again -- the UFC fighter just got slapped with a 5 year suspension for failing a drug test.

The Nevada Athletic Commission handed down the suspension, and also a $150k fine. He failed the test -- reportedly for marijuana -- earlier this year after his fight Anderson Silva in UFC 183.

Diaz will be 36 when the suspension ends, which would certainly make it difficult for him to make a comeback.

Kim Richards is in a desperate state ... so desperate she's going to smoke shops to score Xanax.

We're told Richards went to a smoke shop in Sherman Oaks several times this week, asking for the Rx drug. People in the shop say employees were perplexed because drugs aren't sold there, but Kim insisted a family member claimed she could score the drugs there.

We're told Kim was turned away each of the 3 separate times she showed up. On one occasion, someone in the store watched her leave and then go inside another smoke shop nearby.

As for why Kim was on the hunt for Xanax, she says she needs it because she has a foot injury ... which obviously makes no sense because Xanax is for anxiety.

As we reported, Kim recently left rehab for substance abuse.

Chris Brown won a big victory in custody court Friday, but it could get derailed because of an on-the-spot drug test.

TMZ broke the story, Chris got temporary joint custody of Royalty, where he and baby mama Nia Guzman rotate every 4 days.

Sources close to Nia tell TMZ, something else happened in court. Her lawyer asked the judge to force Chris to submit hair and urine samples for drug tests, and the judge ordered Chris to ante up on the spot.

The judge didn't say what he would do if the tests came back positive for drugs ... it would obviously depend in part what type of drugs, if any, were present in his system.

Our Nia sources also say Chris' custody win had strings attached ... his mom must be present when he has physical custody of his 1-year-old.

Susan Sarandon is a sight to behold in this video ... looking like a cross between a flower child and Victorian aristocracy ... as she sang the praises of LSD and Timothy Leary.

Sarandon held a ceremony last week honoring Leary at Burning Man. They were pals and he left her some of his ashes after he died in 1996, while the lump sum was shot up into space.

Susan's definitely a fan of LSD. She doesn't say she's ever indulged, but when you watch the video it's not hard to read between the lines.

Susan held a procession and then spread her divvy of the ashes on the Playa.

The best part of the video ... Sarandon asking everyone to recall their favorite or worst trips.

Good luck recalling.

Jesse Jane has a message for all the haters who still think she was drunk when she passed out in Vegas ... take a date rape drug and see what happens to you.

TMZ posted video of the porn star Tuesday in a stupor on the Vegas Strip.

Jesse is extremely upset by Internet users, whose comments include:

- "Tequila is no bueno, that's what u call white girl wasted."

- "It's hard to hold your liquor when you have no soul."

- "Just leave her on her back, that when she's most comfortable."

Jesse's now hurling back at all the trash talkers.

Over the years, we've spotted our fair share of celebrities who've enjoyed their night on the town.

Porn star Jesse Jane says what looked like a case of her getting wasted Tuesday in Las Vegas was really the result of her getting roofied.

A rep for Jesse says she slammed 2 shots at a bar inside a Vegas hotel … problem is she got them from a stranger. Soon after, Jesse and her friends left the bar and she passed out cold on the Vegas Strip, which was when the video was shot.

Friends managed to get her back to her hotel room where she recovered. Jesse believes she was drugged because she woke up not remembering much, feeling weak and vomiting.
