Why does USADA suspend athletes for petty stuff?

https://www.usada.org/testing/results/sanctions/

Seriously. Look at athletes who have been received two year suspensions for substances that are less effective than caffeine:
- 7-keto DHEA (might boost metabolism by 2%),
- DHEA (negligible if it even works)
- Cannabinoids (LOL)

Also I understand banning sarms/research chemicals (ostatine, rad140, Ibutamoren), have used them, but the only benefit they really have is muscle retention during a weight loss phase. To have them have the same penalty as anabolic steroids is a joke!

Because they are buzz kills.

They need to fuck off and leave our circus freakshow of a 'sport' alone please.

[PancraseForever]

Because they're cuckold old men losers with nothing better to do.

DHEA legit doesn't work whatsoever lol.

Exactly and USADA has been proven to be nothing more than a promotional element of the UFC anyway.

Imagine if UFC went full PRIDE? - Freakshow fights, horrific mismatches, tourneys, no drug testing, soccor kicks, 10 minute first round etc

Each PPV would sell 10 million.

Because fuck them. That's why. Corrupt.

That was the NSAC who also attempted to put Nick Diaz down 5 years for smoking some weed.

If all these other sports can have roids, why can’t mma?

The pursuit of mainstream acceptance and popularity will be the death of the "sport."

MMA is a fighting spectacle, it needs to remain so.

The very art that had raised them to such Olympian heights was lost.
