Here are a list of fighters whose performances have dropped in quality significantly since USADA. I'm not insinuating all these guys were dirty because in some cases it could just be a matter of fighting better opposition. None the less here are the fighters I've noticed have noticably gotten worse under the USADA regime.
Hector Lombard: Went from pure beast to glass Jaw lamb. Got finished by Neil Magny, something that would not have happened to his Pre-USADA self.
Vitor: Obviously! Went from TRT Vitor to VCR Vitor (old and outdated).
Bigfoot: Went from a good mid-tier heavyweight to maybe the worst Heavyweight on the roster once USADA showed up.
Jon Jones: We only have a one fight sample but it is a powerful indicator. OSP is terrible and Jon had quite possibly his worst fight ever against him. Lets see what the future holds.
Anthony Pettis: Went from pound 4 pound elite to washed up during the USADA era.
RDA: Looked like an unbeatable ferocious animal at 155. His last two however have shown him to be significantly less imposing. Just looks like a different fighter.
Chris Weidman: He just doesn't look as strong and explosive in the USADA era. Went from dominant legend killer who never lost a round to getting finished in his last two. But he's still my boy!
Gilbert Melendez: hasn't looked the same since USADA came to town.
Matt Brown: Was kicking a lot of ass but now he gets his ass kicked a lot. Was even KOed by the most washed up fighter on the roster in Ellenberger. After winning 7 straight he is now I think 1-4 in his last five. #USADAera
Johny Hendricks: Went from beating Condit, GSP, and Lawler to slugging it out and losing to fellow fat ass Kelvin Gastelum.
