Jon Jones on GSP: "I guess brain damage is real"

Jones couldn't be more right but not in the way he thinks.

Never fails to amuse me how sensitive Jon is over the steroids thing. He got caught red handed and wants to act like its weird for anyone to hold the PEDs against him.

 

[OmegaRugal]

Wait ... so is Jones admitting to taking PEDs ...

BUT ... that it didnt help him?

Seems that way.

That didn't happen.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And if it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.

Steroids do help your focus and hunger lol. It makes everything better

 

[nonoob]

Respect, in this case, is understandably NOT mutual.

 

[Versez]

It’s an old post from jones no ? Like from 2020 I think

 

[Izzysexboyfriend]

The steroids didn’t throw the kick? Then why did you need them lmao

 

[MDoza]

Maybe GSP knows what he’s talking about..

 

[OriginMMA]

Ya Jon steroids make you train better.

 

[L0ki]

He posted that long time ago.

I used to be on board with PED's during Pride but after pre-med and seeing the effects of steroids lol.....

Based off the benefits, it's fighting a very different version of the person, both mentally and physically.

How would injecting yourself full of test not alter your mind frame?

It's somewhat analogous to telling someone not to feel anything or think differently and injecting them with heroine, in terms of a substance that largely impacts the mind.

Steroids help with psychological properties, like reaction time, energy levels, aggression, etc.

So GSP is right, the benefits are not only physical. To say they don't teach you to throw kicks or punches or technique is a strawman. They help with training and in the fight, since they assist recovery, with physical attributes, and bring psychological advantages as well.

People use them for a reason. Several reasons, in fact. Including Jones.

 

[The-AxeMurderer]

Taking steroids didnt throw the kick, but it allowed for faster recovery to throw the kick more, to practice the kick.

Does someone want to explain to this dumb dumb how steroids work?

Why did you take them then Jon?

Maybe GSP knows what he’s talking about..

 

[Get To Da Choppa]

Apparently steroids make you snitch on yourself.

Jon respects him, but not enough to be seen outside a club

 

[Karl_Hungus]

Lol. I see you guys have this covered already. The 'roids helped him put in the hours traneing, etc. Muscle stayed with him. He recovered from traneing injuries faster. I mean, come on, Jon. Also, lol @ him basically admitting to being a long time 'roid user.

GSP must be experiencing alien abductions still.

 

[italiamusica]

Only a moron like Jones would try to say that steroids don't help you mentally. No you're not growing fucking biceps on your brain, but all that confidence and the feelings of getting stronger and faster are definitely going to help your mindset, mentality, and overall vision.
