Would you prefer a UFC without USADA?

Nah. Canceling drug testing would pretty much be an endorsement for steroids, which isn't exactly a good look for cage fighting. They're trying to make it more of a legit sport, rather than a complete spectacle. Might as well just get rid of all the rules while you're at it.

Fuck USADA.

If everyone is using than no one is cheating. It's an even playing field.

PED's were still not legal pre USADA they just were terrible at detecting them/ not trying to detect them.

Cool!

Let's get rid of the ban on:

12-6 elbows
Knees and kicks on the ground
Fuck the IV ban too!

 

[CPH]

No. Give it up already roid monkeys.

 

[SirKratos]

USADA can't even catch most of the cheaters yet people still whining about too many events being ruined lol. Cry more delusional dorks

 

[Magooglie]

Yes.

 

[Gorkle]

It's a sad indictment of the modern mindset that most are gonna say 'yes' because 'muh spectacle'

Why? I don't watch the UFC to get bored. I watch it to enjoy what I'm watching.

 

[Pakman]

Yes

thread should be closed.

 

[campbecc]

No

1. We would have far fewer canceled fights, less injuries ect.

2. We wouldn't lose key fighters on the roster like Jones

3. It would actually be more of a level playing field considering all the fighters who try to cheat anyway and get around the rules.

4. We would get to see these athletes at their optimum.

If anything, I feel the sport has suffered with USADA just so Dana can call it a legitimate sport when trying to sign espn deals, when in reality, this is cage fighting, not Olympic figure skating.

Saying yes means every fighter will be juicing.

And as soon as a juiced fighter kills their opponent, SACs might stop regulating the sport. Welcome back to the dark ages when porn was on PPV but MMA wasn't.

USADA is a necessary evil.

I'm all for copping a feel but this looks a little aggressive. #metoo

 

[HoFF]

Yes

 

[Bend NvR Break]

Since USADA can't catch everyone then I'd rather them not be there.

If they could catch everyone then I'd appreciate them more.

MMA is supposed to be about REAL sport with skill and technique

but you americans got brought up on too many sylvester stallone homoerotic fantasies and think fighting is all about big muscles

go watch pro wrestling if that's the kind of spectacle you want
