Who's the best/most insirational fighter to overcome addiction?

[Pitier of Fools]

Definitely Jon Jones. It only took him ONE DAY of rehab to kick the habit.

Probably the most inspirational fighter I have ever seen that overcame addiction just fought on a ppv in Delaware and from what the rumor mill is, his elite performance has earned him a spot on any future ppv's he wants.

False.

Pretty much the same. Heroin is overwhelmingly more dangerous though.

Most of it is laced with Fentanyl these days and that stuff is so potent a piece the size of a grain of sand can kill you.


Wasn’t Means an addict too?

Respect. I had a pill addiction myself. And my bro and sis are both recovering heroin addicts. It’s not easy man, that’s for certain.

I feel that MMA takes a particularly strong spirit and immense bravery, as does recovering from an addiction to drugs and alcohol, so naturally I see a trend of recovering alcoholics and drug addicts going into MMA. Who do you guys think is the most inspirational or successful MMA fighter that has overcome an addiction?

Court McGee was desperately hooked on heroin.

Ryan Gracie... ended badly....
