Can Brock fight at 200?

[T.J.T]

I was under the impression if you come out of retirement or are a fighter you need to test clean for 3 or 4 months prior to your first bout with the new drug testing rules. This was explained when Conor fake "retired" then had to say he wasn't because he would have to wait the testing period before he could fight again (ironically it looks like he may be out that duration anyways with what went on LOL)

So my question is this and I am not judging Brock, but I think PED are pretty accepted in the WWE, making that transition into the UFC for 200 only gives him a month? Wheather hes clean or not, how does he get a pass on that "testing" period that was waived around when Conor fake retired?

 

[Tormund]

Don't you remember him getting added back to the roster a few weeks ago? That was probably when he started random testing

 

[Headkicktoleg]

Hmm good point. I'm pretty damn sure we would have heard about Brock getting tested. Would have been big newa

 

[JohnyBrabo]

He could have been in negotiations for quite some time leading up to the announcement, we have no idea on that. If that were the case I am sure he would have entered the testing protocol.

 

[FeloniousMonk]

If that were the case I am sure he would have entered the testing protocol.

 

[T.J.T]

I would expect there to be a list we could look up on the USDA (if thats the testing company) that would list active athletes, just curious though, surprised this could slip by as you would expect someone would spill the beans long ago. He would have be available to be tested for the last 2 months if it was a 3 month window.

Id also be shocked if he were able to pass WHILE in the WWE, im not questioning he is clean when he fights MMA

 

[faustian]

Bork can do whatever he wants. He's the UFC HW GOAT ffs

 

[yookfarb]

pretty sure the UFC can wave off that bullshit for anyone they want

 

[JayPettryMMA]

The UFC can request an exception from USADA for a newly signed fighter. They have for a few short notice replacement fighters already.

 

[LongDongSilver]

you idiots act like they wouldn't have this dialed in to a T... why would anybody on either side allow a dirty test ?

just flush all that $$$ down the drain and leave that stain huh ... they know exactly what to do and how to do it ..

 

[My name is]

doesn't WWE do their own testing . feel like I've heard that they do so maybe he has a paper trail showing he's been tested

 

[reddhelium]

ariel recently spoke to chael about his possible return to mma and how he could notify usada directly, without it being public knowledge.

so perhaps brock notified usada months ago, and the ufc just now made his return public.

I believe USADA has an exemption if you have a penis sword tattoo.

I believe USADA has an exemption if you have a penis sword tattoo.

or if its a one of fight?
Since it just for one fight maybe he gets an exemption

 

[soulsstealer]

I really hope he fights fedor that would be sick.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

I believe USADA has an exemption if you have a penis sword tattoo.

I can confirm this to be true. War Brock!!!

 

[FeloniousMonk]

Which one of you snitches reported
my USADA thread? Crybabys.


OT: Brock can fight because the
UFC, NSAC & USADA have no
integrity & make exemptions when
there is cash to be made.

THIS IS the US afterall

 

[markys00]

Kinda crazy last week someone posted Brock was added back to the roster... ppl blew it off since that roster/ufc website does all sorts of wierd things (probably run by monkeys). Just awesome

Hunt vs Brock here we go

 

[Kryognix]

I doubt very much Brock has used any sort of PED's in a long time.

Brock is a hige guy, but he's not crazy looking Cena or the Rock in Pain and Gain, or one of those bodybuilder types.

Because NSAC and USADA gets % of UFCs ppv

Or could it be Brock will be tested before / after the event?

Or maybe not at all since he is not coming back to MMA but just have a one off fight.
A potential failure will do nothing to Brock since he wont come back to the UFC and I am sure WWE could not care less if Brock fails a ped test.
