Clean Fighters appreciation thread

[wilKO]

If you believe there are no such thing as clean fighters, then do you at least agree every single fighter who has ever pissed hot is absolutely incompetent at being a fighter?

Absolutely. That is way more believable than believing 100% of fighters on PEDs are caught.

 

[Ken Oath]

GSP ...natty.

LMAO.

 

[beachburn2]

I assume everyone is using. Ask any fight camp and they say 80% are using. Yet only maybe 10% are getting caught.

Source or gtfo

Do you then think Jones was clean before he got caught? Because before he was caught there was no proof he was using

Jon has failed pretty much every test under random drug testing lol

The only time he didn't was against OSP, and he looked like dogshit. Plus Jones had suspect T levels even before USADA

Fair enough. If that's your stance, then I will give you that.

I don't know if there is no such thing as clean fighters, but I absolutely hate when fans excuse a fighter being busted for PEDs with "Well, everybody's doing it". If you own the whole, "Everybody's doing PEDs, but it takes a special breed of incompetence to fail the drug tests", then I really have nothing against the position.

Not all fighters are on steroids, do you have any proof they are?

After watching various sports since probably longer than you've been alive, yes, I believe its more than reasonable to expect that all the top guys in EVERY sport are on the gear, all sports.

Don't get me wrong. I'm sure there are clean fighters but I would not say so lightly. Especially some of those high calibre guys who look suspect.

Cleanest fighter in MMA!!!

There are a shit ton of PED's and not everyone will look suspect. Look at Barnett as an example. He popped 4 times and never looked like he was on PED's. There are some signs like vascularity, huge traps, etc. but many guys are on some form of PED and show no sign of it at all.

I'm pretty much agnostic when it comes to whether all fighters are on PEDs, though I very much doubt it due to my unwillingness to believe such absolute statements are true. I know some fighters are on PEDs, because they've been busted for them, but for those who have tested clean, I'm pretty much agnostic as to whether they're on something or not, because the fact they've tested clean only proves they've passed the drug test, nothing else, especially with how easy it is to use masking agents to pass tests.

 

[Harlekin]

Gsp has needle bumps on his belly
HGH and roid gut
and didn't want testing at one point.

Colby is on epo

 

[Super Shotgun]

LMAO if you're convinced they're natty, they just haven't been caught (yet).

 

[20falarVerdades]

GSP is as natural as Jon Jones ... the two natty kings

Haiku formatting aside (oh, why would you format a post like that?), when did GSP not want additional testing?

Legitimately asking, since I remember GSP as voluntarily undergoing VADA testing during the Hendricks fight and being very vocal about how he thought drug testing by just the athletic commissions wasn't vigorous enough.

 

[TheChance]

Yeah. Let's appreciate all the clean fighters. I have listed them below:

It's cute that people think they exist

Look at the NFL, everyone is jacked to the limit. The NFL would never fuck up their billion dollar empire by instituting USADA or some other testing agency that would really pursue catching guys because there would be no NFL left. They aren't going to screw up a good thing and the fans by and large could care less. Same thing with the NBA, too much money is being made to pursue PED users. Baseball tried to look like they were and all it did was make their sport even more boring.

I didn't know that was possible. Then again, I don't watch baseball because that shit is boring as fuck, and I do not understand how it is a spectator sport.

Oh I'm sure there are some, like the Diaz brothers, I would be shocked if they were caught. Here is the problem the way I see it. The problem is fans that think its 80% clean, 20% PED's when in reality its more like 80% PED's and 20% clean. The top guys though are almost all dirty. I don't gaf what the sport is, the top guys in the world are using.

I like to think of baseball as a drinking and eating sport. If you go to the park with some friends and have a few beers and eat a dog then its more of an event, if you watch it on television, not so much.

I cannot like a thread that mixes champs and potential Goats with scumbags
