'I like food and beer. Some of my losses may have been to cheating fighters.’ Johny Hendricks

[Yodhin]

“I've never cheated. What sucked, was you have fighters that actually cheat,” he continued. “That’s what kills me about the world in general, you know they are cheating, why are they letting them still fight? It hurts the people who aren’t cheating. You know what else hurt, I like to drink beer and eat fast food,” Hendricks said to BJPENN.com.

I miss pre USADA Hendricks. Guy was a wrecking machine. Not saying he was on something, just noting how his career tanked after USADA came into play.

GSP juicing confirmed

 

[Guy LeDouche]

Didn’t he just get hammered by a gay porn star?


ok ok cheap, but Hendricks has never done himself any favors complaining in his career. He’s come off very badly any time he’s opened his mouth.

The amount of man juice Dakota had in his system was stronger than any steroid known to man. Confirmed cheater.

• 70% Johny did have a decent highlight reel

 

[medium rare]

I never believed Hendricks was juicing

He had trouble making weight even before USADA and had multiple serious surgeries after the Lawler wars.

He was also extremely undisciplined and burnt out from the decades of competing at the highest level

No IV means no Johnny

You know what else didn’t help? Running the vaunted Bigg Rigg Steakhouse:



Look at those quality dishes. Takes a looooot of energy to be a Restaurateur, Joe.

 

[Azor]

Pig Rigg's decline sucks, but I gotta admit. That KO where he hit that guy while he was punching is still one of the best. Goddamn lol.

 

[Mr_Pink_eyes]

Johnny would have knocked GSP out cold if it wasn't for the thin ass hand wraps.

looks like a steak special from a strip club

Hendricks KOd top ranked Fitch and Kampmann stiff. He beat prime Lawler and sent prime GSP to retirement at the young age of 32.

Respect to the former UFC WW champ.

 

[KID Yamamoto]

Hendricks pre usada had the most comical punching power at welter. Literally rumble tier without the gassing/losing focus.

And if anyone knows what that looks like, it’s you, my brother.

brah, not only do I know what that looks like I used to serve it at my club

That baked potato was plain af not even any bacon bits or chives on it and the salad looks like something bought in a bag at a grocery store

 

[Crom Cruach]

Johnny complaining about juicers.

 

[waldywaldy]

It's funny how all that food and beer ended his prime the moment USADA kicked in

 

[And Erson Ilva]

I think his discipline and the IV ban accelerated his downfall. But it’s hard to look at what he did before USADA, what he did after, and conclude juice had nothing to do with it. I’m sure losing that edge compounded everything else that was going on, and made him even quicker to quit or train poorly. You can 70% it when you’ve got the right cocktail. When you don’t, and they take your IV away, you’ve not gotta push it to 130%. Johnny responded by going down to 50%, and it showed.

 

[Myrddin Wild]

lol... Hendrix is the poster boy for people who lost all their mojo after USADA came on the scene. He was a terror for KO's before it. Had the touch of death in his hands. Afterwards he couldn't knock out a fooking fly.
