Anderson Silva Taking PEDs Is Similar To...

Lol, is this still a thing.

Anderson is the consensus GOAT of MMA. Only a handful of the most bitter haters try to discredit him with this.

If he got busted in the middle of his title reign, I would say there's a blemish there. But a 40 year old guy 3 years removed from his last win, and coming off a horrific injury and surgery long after his legacy has been cemented, I mean seriously fuck off lol.

It's the exact same situation as Cro Cop, they were done, a non issue.

Anyone can say what they want. This isn't anything new.

How you get to your conclusion, and how you share it, is how you will make a point and be taken seriously.

"he said something stupid so I can say this" isn't a very convincing argument. It shows you're lazy and unprepared to host this discussion fairly.

The problem with online discussion is that people don't have the time to read a 3000 word essay that clearly presents a well thought out argument.

We have to use the fewest words to get our point across, and clarify and fill in the gaps as we go along.

This is mainly barbershop debates for entertainment purposes.
 
Maybe it's just me but I don't remember Peyton throwing flying knees at any linebackers head.

I don't need to convince myself of anything. They are not good sports why are they called "performance enhancing drugs."

Saying that PEDs are not good for sports is like saying Viagra is not good for sex. Often, the moral stance is NOT supported by science.

Maybe. But he was caught once after a severe leg injury. If he wanted to be on PEDs before that, he could have done the TRT when it was legal in the UFC, and many of his challengers were doing it.

I will give him the benefit of the doubt.

You left out the part where what he tested positive for had nothing to do with his recovery

Also, got caught the first time when he got randomly drug tested in his career.

AND he himself said if someone gets caught, likely he's been using it for a long time.

Peyton Manning taking PEDs. They had career threatening injuries at advanced ages. Them taking PEDs was the best thing for the sport. Period.

Two legends that wanted to finish the game on their own terms. It is better for a legend to lose to a young lion, than a career ending injury that can easily be fixed with PEDs.

I will also add Ray Lewis to the list of GOATs who EARNED the right to take PEDs.

If the MMA Media and fans can say stuff like "Mike Bisping deserved a big money fight with GSP" (when there is murderers row of challengers waiting for him), then I can say "Anderson Silva earned the right to take PEDs to fix his severely broken leg."

I was going to argue with you but then I saw you wrote "Period." and I realized I had already lost.
 
some of you will never understand the amount of pain it is to have your leg snapped in half.


if that shit happened to me, give me all the PED's in the world to fix that horrific injury.

Every poll I've ever seen, whether it be fans, fighters, journalists, BRAZILIANS have Fedor as the consensus GOAT

Except that Anderson failed a test and Cro Cop didn't

Then Anderson should have come out and said he was prescribed steroids for his broken leg instead of getting them from a friend to treat erectile dysfunction.

no one gets prescribed anabolic steroids for a broken leg lol
 
Anderson fans lol. Just let it go. Your boy got caught and now his GOAT status is forever tainted.
 
No, thats bullshit. Every single fighter that has more than 10 fights at this high of a level has constant nagging injuries. Why does someone like Anderson get to juice up? Suddenly he has fucking decades of experience/trial and error, while also benefiting of the the hormones of an amateur 20 year old kid in the prime of his life.

If Anderson couldnt recover/compete with out gear, then retire. Or allow his opponents to use juice also.

Correct. Everyone at the top is on the sauce.

everyone.

no exceptions.

it's a level playing field.

Take the peds away from Anderson or lance, they'd still both dominate.

All of his opponents were juiced.

Everyone at the top level is on the sauce.

In every sport.

When there's money and fame on the line it's human nature to juice.

Don't be so naive.
