Bigfoot is an example of someone who SHOULD GET TRT

[kaya]

I mean -- clearly he isn't a guy who fought at 205 and ended up "ubereem"

His genetic situation is what it is.

He was like a shadow of a shadow of himself tonight. As a near SHW who actually has a great BJJ top game -- it is a shame *the fans* will be robbed of seeing "a HW/SHW do jujitsu" at a high(ish) level.

 

[Justice League]

Or maybe he shouldn't fight.

 

[ThePewp]

Yeah, this would be like if someone saw Brock against Cain then rationalized "Brock should get to use TRT"

 

[RumDiaries]

Or maybe he shouldn't fight.

This. If he's to fragile to do this with out the juice, he probably shouldn't be fighting.

 

[Barkus]

He kind of got screwed over by everyone jumping on the TRT train. If it was just Bigfoot treating his legit medical condition I don't think too many people would have an issue with it.

 

[Bob Sagat]

This. If he's to fragile to do this with out the juice, he probably shouldn't be fighting.

exactly

 

[steveflynn]

He looked really meager, lethargic and even sickly in the cage tonight. He's clearly not the same fighter that he was before. Tough to watch.

Umm, Brock dominated Cain until hit him with a lucky punch.

Yeah man, gotta deal with what cards you were dealt. Its not like the NBA allows sluggish 7 foot guys TRT, because theyre not explosive enough for the NBA. It is what it is.

 

[iwhoopedbatman]

Retire

Yup, he looks old man skinny and he just got beat up easily by 2 washed up fighters. Everyone seems to have forgotten that Arlovski won a gift decision against Schaub not that long ago, Schaub! Neither Mir or Arlovski are back, Bigfoot is just horrible now.

lol if the entire NBA was randomly drug tested today there would be no NBA.

The nitwits on here that can't understand the difference between a legit requirement for HRT and a roid-head would definitely have an issue with it.

 

[IDGETKTFO]

All i heard was bla bla bla, BF needs TRT and should retire.

 

[w00t]

He's an example of someone who should retire.

 

[IDGETKTFO]

Someone needs to let BF know Micky D's is hiring.

 

[bad_k]

Nah I call it BS

Many of these guys abuses the use of steroids/Testosterone in the beginning of career (or entire) and they all face the consequences of the aftermath which comes down to the inability for the body to produce the hormones naturally.

Obviously not everyone with low T level are past roid users but what's the chance of someone with an insane physical handicap to turn into a fighter to begin with.

 

[BigDaddyBach]

And where does the line get drawn? Who decides such thing and what is a good excuse from a bad excuse.....very, very subjective stuff here. If fighter X has bad genetics and taking substance Y makes cancels out the bad genetics, making him more athletic less dumpy, should he be able to take it too? Some people legitimately need steroids, pain killers, speed, things that dull your nerves and turn you into a higher functioning human, but, they shouldn't be fighting against all natural fighters.

I still think there should be a league/org where there is no testing and fighters can do whatever they want (like any Brazilian org) but all fighters consent and well know the risks and should not be compensated as much as the fighters that fight cleanly. There is no good way to drug police, only moderately less futile.

I think this is probably true, but I understand the view of people who say that if he needs it, maybe he just can't be a mixed martial artist.

Bigfoot had his Pituary tumour removed = no more excessive HGH production.

TRT got banned + stricter testings = no PEDs.

His performance tonight is the result of having less HGH and TRT.
