Doesnt work like that. Still legit wins.
Why?

Implying Fedor never took PED's.
Then you can't say Werdum was juicing when he beat Fedor. There's zero evidence of that, in the same way there's zero evidence Fedor took PED's. Can't have it both ways.IF he did, it was on an even playing field in PRIDE and it wasn't against the rules.
Werdum can't say either of those things.
Sure. If you choose to believe the king of an organization where everyone openly did PED's in a sport where pretty much everyone does PED's and who comes from a country that had a state run doping program that ensured all their athletes did PED's, never did PED's.... then that's fine. That's your prerogative.

You should watch the documentary Icarus. I'm not taking the IOC's word for it, I'm taking it from the Russian scientist who was leading this program. Who is now in the witness protection program in the US because Putin wants him dead. It's a fascinating documentary.If you want to believe that the Olympic Committee's claim that Russia had a state sponsored programme wasn't a foundationless political one, that's your perogative. Just rememeber
that when Ben Johnson tested positive, so did Carl Lewis and a host of other US Athletes, which was all covered up. Don't believe everything you hear from the IOC and their cronies.
If Fedor wanted to cheat, he'd probably have used diuretics or WInstrol to lose the chubby belly and fight in the Pride MW division where he would have the advantage, instead of putting himself at
a disadvantage fighting giants.

Of course many American athletes are dopers as well. I'm definitely not arguing against that.
And your last point doesn't mean anything. Again, we don't know with CERTAINTY what he (or anyone else) put in their body, but all signs would suggest that Fedor has taken PED's, and believing that he's always been 100% clean is just ignorant wishful thinking. People are of course free to believe what they want to believe though.

Why?
Because it's only proven he was on something recently. You can only account for the time that the drugs could have been in his system for this pop.
Acting like he's on something his entire career is unproven.
In terms of official accountability, that's the way it should be. In terms of our perception of him, I don't see why we need to be so strict. He may have just started juicing this late in his career but it's more likely he has gotten away with it before.
Perception means nothing.
Cheaters never prosper.@RawkyMarciano another doper, fraud and loser has been exposed.
Perception is what you're debating about; nobody has proposed changing his entire record to a NC.
I'm not debating anything, i'm educating like god damn usual.
On behalf of all the benighted masses on this site, thank you, sensei.
Nobody is on your team and nobody is going to support you when you start acting like PED's should be counted before they were taken.
Has anybody actually suggested that? Sounds like you're attacking a straw man.
