Werdum vs. DC would be a great matchup.... Not sure DC would fair any better than Cain did.
"Now Fabricio’s 41. After his suspension ends and he comes back, he’ll be 43. What is he going to do? If they open a senior league, we’ll wait."
Crocop was his training partner for years, i doubt they would fight now.Fabroidio should go to RIZIN and fight TRT Cro Cop
Or to Russia and rematch Aleks E
Jones dont do hw.
did ya happen to catch werdums last fight?Werdum vs. DC would be a great matchup.... Not sure DC would fair any better than Cain did.
He can probably go to Russia anyway but he will probably be banned from fighting outside of eastern europe forever. I'm not sure if Japan will take a guy still under contract UFC. Prob not.nah, Werdum never once dominated the HW division, he had a lot of great wins scattered between some really disappointing losses. For sure one of the best, but he's not even above Big Nog as far as best HWs of all time.
With that said, kind of hope Ali is right. If he is suspended for 2 years and he'll basically be too old by then, hopefully the UFC lets him go to go compete in Russia or Japan. I think the Volkov fight was enough to show me that Werdum is no longer going to be a title challenger (maybe he is, HW sucks lol)
I'm listening to Novitsky on Rogan's podcast right now and this whole thing just sounds fucking ridiculous.
If you can find all of these banned substances in over the counter shit like creatine and natural diuretics that you can buy at Wal-mart, then what is the point?
A 2 year ban can completely derail or end a career in the fight game.
I have a hard time believing that Werdum intentionally took roids, and guys like Machida? And isn't Rothwell still out for some substance?
Mir...Barnett...careers KO'd left and right.
USADA is ruining the sport.
I'm for drug testing, but fuck, there has to be a smarter system than this.

I am a big fan of Werdum but what he needed to do was keep PEDs out of his body and test clean.“Fabricio Werdum’s next fight is probably going to be in Russia. USADA needs to do what they need to do. Fabricio has a family, he has children, he has kids — he’s gotta do what he’s gotta do, because USADA, that’s a broken system. At the end of the day, I know the UFC is with USADA, but I believe USADA is now hurting the UFC. They’re not helping.”
“I think Fabricio’s done. You’ll never see him in the UFC again. … They need to do what they need to do, but at the end of the day, Fabricio has to do whatever he needs to do for his family. I know Dana’s tough, but these guys have hearts. They understand this is his only source of income. Now Fabricio’s 41. After his suspension ends and he comes back, he’ll be 43. What is he going to do? If they open a senior league, we’ll wait. But Fabricio Werdum did not cheat, you understand? How stupid are you to cheat at 41 years old?"

Dude has a legit claim to HW GOAT imo.
