I don’t understand the hate on PEDs users

[muaytao]

You said you were sure you knew who was already good and who needed steroids to be good. So fess up on who and why.

Clean:Mighty Mouse, bisping, cejudo, Whittaker, etc

 

[theblackknight]

It’s funny how certain fighters get hated for juicing.... but then ignore others that are clearly juicing or got caught in the pass for cheating....cris cyborg, Brock, Romero, Anderson Silva, vitor, Bigfoot etc

IMO I don’t really care that they cheat but it will always be in my mind who the real good fighters are. And who had to cheat to be good. That is all.

Romero was cleared for tainted supplements not saying I know for a fact that he 100% has not used any PEDs in the past but he shouldn’t be lumped in with the rest of the fighters you mentioned

Lol you really think Romero is clean?

 

[theblackknight]

Lol you really think Romero is clean?

Not what I’m saying, but he’s not a proven cheat, there are plenty of fighters who clearly appear as if they have been juicing and have not popped but I do adopt an innocent until proven guilty policy.

That is not what i asked you. Thats not even close to what i asked you.

Drug cheats are drug cheats. There is no quarter or tolerance accepted but fair minded and reasonable people.
I stopped watching the tour when Lance went down.
I'd stop watching MMA if DC went down.
Silva, Romero, Cyborg, Jones etc are all scum.
ANYBODY that takes PEDs is scum!

No one you mentioned gets a pass...Brock and Cyborg routinely get roasted

 

[BluntForceTrama]

In the case of Dillashaw what makes it so maddening and shifty is that the turd tried to pass himself off as someone who was clean. He is the piece of shit everyone says he is

 

[DrunkMonkMeth]

Dang mr.shot you mad af. Damn if only every fighter was clean you would of been the goat of mma. Damn it wasn’t meant to be.

Lol@ getting upset by a pleb on sherdog. Sure thing incel

 

[AnotherOldGuy]

Some ufc fighters are still only getting 10-14k per fight

Good point. Some of them might not be able to afford test beating PED's. But the bigger names certainly can.

Lmao
You know everyone in tour de France was busted.

I wont bother to shake your world regarding d1, olympics mma or big sports

Yes, cycling is filled with more cheats than clean athletes and I will not watch it.
I do not watch the Olympics for the same reason.
MMA was filthy, but getting better. Jones is a stain on the sport and the UFC's handling/tolerance of it is a disgrace.
Another Jones or DC going down and I'm done.

its purely digressional. i hate on anderson silva and jon jones, yet i love vitor belfort.

i think a big thing that plays into factor is how a few of those fighters choose to go about their drug bust. anderson and jones went about it the worst way and were exposed as frauds, guys like vitor embodied it.

am i hypocritical for liking vitor and romero and not liking jones and anderson?? maybe, but in reality, it be what it be.

Sincerely any competitive sport isnt for you, not even on a collegiate level.

PED's are for people who don't have the courage to fight without them.

 

[Logan M]

I don’t know how I feel tbh

I DO NOT think one fighter using steroids is a danger to others...for the most part I think the majority of talented fighters can get access to world class training and nutrition info, however I DONT think majority of fighters have access to the same illegal drugs so I don’t like that it makes an even more uneven playing field in regards to recovery and performance gains

Because of that I lean more towards “hating” known ped cheats than just turning a blind eye

It honestly works the opposite of how you're suggesting. Stringent testing makes the field more uneven since the lower tier fighter often cannot afford the cycles that beat the tests. So you end up with the top tier guys on the primo gear fighting guys who are clean. Stringent testing unfortunately creates the literal worst case scenario of fights being worse and the most uneven playing field.

All of the fighters listed got a lot of hate for juicing except for Romero (who still got hate) and Bigfoot.

Romero is a fan favourite who was able to prove that a supplement he was taking was tainted

If there was ever a fighter who had a very legit medical reason for taking testosterone it was bigfoot

Thats simply not how high level competition works.

i dont like all of them cause they all cheated.

I didn't claim anything about how high level competition works. I claimed that people who use PED's in combat sports don't have the courage to fight without them. Similar to how people who spam Ermac teleports don't have the courage to learn better game mechanics.
