Georges St-Pierre explains why a clash with UFC over PED testing pushed him away from MMA

[Bend NvR Break]

I know how guns work...does mean i own some and use them?..

Being knowledgeable on a subject doesn't make you guilty of such activity..

Hes knowledge because hes been around the game and has seen the problem..hes lived it...

Beating usada isnt rock science...or a secret..lance Armstrong did it for years

If you don't own a gun then you don't know how they work.

It's not just point and shoot. There's maintenance and all type of things that gun owners know that non gun owners don't know.

There's knowing how a gun works (point and shoot) and then there's KNOWING how a gun works (oiling, lubing, sight adjustment, adjustment for kickback, etc).

 

[MGS]

What's up with the retired champions still wanting attention and being on all the mma shows after hanging up the gloves? Go make movies, stop rehashing the same shit years later, this been discussed countless of times, there is nothing more to add, if so I call bullshit. For real George already cleared that up, why add new things lol?

 

[Paolo Delutis]

The gift fight vs the one eyed past prime bum doesn't count. Any of the top ten WW's would have beaten Bisping that night.

What does that have to do with usada..

And that one eye "bum" beat silva and koed rockhold stiff lol....

And was a 205 er at one point vs a guy who never fought 185 before...but ey... Dont let facts get in ur way

 

[KeiranMc]

That's a funny way to spell Fedor

I like fedor but come on man

 

[Dbreiden83080]

He's no longer with us.

Umm no..

Gun ownership is not the same as Operating a gun...

U dont need to partake in or own something to understand how it works lol.... Common knowledge is a real thing..

Ur usually a decent to good poster so im not sure of ur trolling me...but if ur not...dam son

 

[Dbreiden83080]

Gsp only had one fight under usada

And won..

Hendricks could not even make weight off the gas..

 

[Shaddows]

meh.
I think this is more excuses he built now, looking back.

But I believe about the depression. the stigma is real.

 

[Noraaq]

Yikes. Losing respect for the hypocrisy and dishonesty of GSP.

Most fighers in GSPs era was on something and he was more jacked, stamina, vascular than everyone in the division

 

[TheComputerGuy]

Yes, they asked some questions about what they were testing for and the limits. Which is important to know. And Rodolphe said he was going to be away for 10 days. GSP and his team agreed to do both VADA and NSAC enhanced testing if that was Hendricks' chocie, even after Kizer refused to answer some of the questions, and even after Hendricks refused VADA.

Oh, and he also didn't do NSAC enhanced testing.

And GSP is supposed to be the "shady" one here....

I swear some of you are just blind idiot haters.

99% of sherdoggers weren't even around at the time. They just pretend like they were.

 

[Blayt7hh]

He's no longer with us.

In loving memory of TheSpider (2019-2021)

About fucking time. I don't know why they let him spam for so long

 

[J-Pac]

Your boy Colby got his jaw broke homie accept it. It will hurt less that way trust me.

Hoes mad that Usman is on the sauzle

 

[ThunderStruck]

IIRC he was unreachable by NSAC during the final days of the fiasco when they were trying to set up USADA testing for the Hendricks fight.

You remember wrong.

 

[ThunderStruck]

It's funny how quickly GSP changes the topic from PED's to "mental depression".

See how that works, is GSP not adressing anything factual at all, but simply changing the topic to him being "depressed", so that he's the victim, although he doesn't really say anything about what he's the victim of.

It's classic.

I'm fairly certain after listening to this that GSP has been using PED's

You should be ashamed of yourself.

 

[Deathbycalfkick]

Itt people accusing Johnny Hendricks of being on steroids when he, like GSP, never tested positive.

You can't have it both ways, if GSP is above suspicion for never pissing hot you can not turn around and accuse another person of using who never failed a test.

At least be consistent with your moralizing.

And yes all signs point to both parties using PEDs. Him wanting advanced testing and the whole back and forth with him and Hendricks has always been suspect as hell. If you are truly clean it shouldn't matter what substances the tests are for unless you need time to get them out of your system or get masking agents that aren't being tested for.

That said it's perfectly acceptable to still be a GSP fan if he used PEDs. He shouldn't be your role model upon whom you project your morality.

 

[snaportap21]

What do you mean not following up? He literally says send the papers for us to sign, and they did and they signed them and GSP went throught he testing. WTF does his lawyer being away for ten days have to do with it?


"Send the papers for us to sign"
"Oh, that must be a soft no"

Is this really lost on you? If you're expecting an email after being unable to check your inbox for 10 days and you don't see it in your inbox what would you do if the contents of the email were important to you? Wouldn't you follow up and send an email telling whomever you were speaking to letting him know you didn't get the message? Soft no.

GSP didn't want to commit to random testing and also wanted to know exactly what they were testing for

call it 'curiosity.'

Hendricks couldnt do shit under USADA, couldnt win, couldnt make weight. He refused any extra testing against GSP.

Under USADA GSP got the MW belt.

Under USADA GSP got the MW belt.

After not having to be tested for years...then he retired because of diverticulitis which is a common illness associated with abusing HGH and the insane diet you have to have to see results. Same thing happened to Brock and Gordon Ryan. Just as many red flags as Hendricks.

But as I said before who cares if he used now then or any other time because he passed his tests just like Hendricks, so both were natty right?

This is why I don't lose sleep over drug tests, but to each their own.

vada had easier testing standards than wada. gsp's team pushed for vada to be work with the nsac for extra testing. and remember this is after GSP's team radio silenced condit when condit asked for USADA after GSP offered VADA. It happened twice in a row. How's that not shady? The VADA president also said in an interview the hendricks fight was the first time firas contacted them for a quote on testing. So GSP pump faked VADA and then went silent when Condit's team was serious about USADA.
