This pertains to drug use between the two.
First off, yes I am certain PRIDE featured more steroid users than the UFC overall. However, I see many of the "new age" UFC fans clamoring how PRIDE essentially doesn't count because they didn't test for steroids. Even though they did test for PRIDE 32 and 33 (which Fedor was on and passed btw) because it was in the USA.
To me it's simple, fighters in the UFC simply found ways to beat the tests or used masking agents. Look at the champs who have tested positive: Jones x2, Lesnar, Cyborg, Anderson, JDS, Machida (probably unfair), Royce, not to mention the suspicious stories around Aldo.
Many of those guys are icons of the UFC and I didn't list everyone, just champs I could think of. Do you guys think this argument is becoming less effective as time goes on? Or am I just retarded? Feel free to rip me. Just my honest thoughts here.
