Chad Mendes confirms report he tested positive due to skin cream for plaque psoriasis

[Sauce Castillo]

2 years of his prime gone because of a cream, these fighters really need to do their due dilligence.

Not really good enough. Ignorance is not an excuse. All these guys need to know what they are doing and taking. It's their job.

 

[PSX]

Goddamn HGH always getting in my acne cream.

Agreed, but the standard 2 year suspension is fucking retarded. I want people to get caught, but not have 2 years of their prime taken away or even have their careers ended in some cases.

I wish they would punish based on severity, but that's not really possible with USADA.

They will probably ban sunblock next.

Tell chad to send me whatever skin cream made him look like this.

 

[JohnyBrabo]

FUCK USADA

 

[TheWobbler]

2 years for a skin cream lol. Is that really worth 2 years of his career. I

True but half the shit on the usday list is a joke.

Plus there should obviously be a punishment tier system, taking a cream is not the same as shooting your self up with test and hiding it with more drugs.

When are you fighting Hendricks?

 

[Estrogenblocker1078]

Idk why but I believe him...

 

[BoosieBoo]

GHRP6 is not HGH, not even close.

Around the same time Overeem eats the cake macalpinerules made for him - never

 

[Marmelete]

but didn't he confess that he was on something, and said sorry?

if so, it only shows that the tests are not good enough and people are still cheating

A growth hormone releasing peptide is about as severe as rHGH. Chad has no viable excuse. He did not ingest the banned substance through no fault of his own. It's a listed ingredient.

 

[thechoice2]

I don't believe him. I won't believe him unless he names the name of the lotion. If you search GHRP-6 and see its uses, you won't see it listed as an "anti-aging" serum like Chad said but see that it's a peptide that is used to make the body produce more Growth Hormone.

Why hasn't he named the lotion that has this peptide in it?

 

[DatWall]

hahaha this is hilarious. It'll be worth having the sport ruined just so we can rub it in the faces of all those shills saying "USADA isn't ruining the sport".

 

[The Bard]

Which step of a 12-step program is "Google to find out what legitimate uses the banned substance has and then make up a semi-plausible, HIPPA-protected story about using the product in a legitimate way."

I'll give him credit that this is at least better than Anderon's limp dick defense.
