Is Jones legacy tarnished, just like Anderson Silva?

[Gabkicks]

Tested positive repeatedly now that USADA is around.

goes to show that Jones was never clean

Is his legacy tarnished now?

 

[goldennirvana]

Of course.

Not yet.

Tested positive repeatedly now that USADA is around.

What? When did he fail any USADA test before!?

 

[basementdweller]

I say neither. you don't even know what Jones fell for. Silva only busted for roids way past his prime anyway. his career and accomplishments will always remain the most awesome things I and several other people witnessed in MMA.

 

[Chronicsonic]

Dunno check the other 5 threads stating the same thing probs find an answer amongst those

 

[joeyjoejoe]

Of course the haters will never forget this event.

 

[Squall Leonhart]

Yes

The GOAT doesn't cheat. There are only two left in the conversation anymore.

What about those TE levels, that STRONGLY indicate steroid use

the problem with that is that you don't know they don't cheat. you don't know if bisping cheats. nobody knows any of this, we only know when they fail the tests. creating a list based off of guys who didn't fall for PEDs yet isn't very smart. fedor was never subjected to USADA random testing. neither did GSP. both silva and jones failed under the new rule. and nothing says the other 2 wouldn't share the same fate.

I was thinking the same thing. He beat OSP in the USADA era and tested clean, but looked very average doing it. Could be he set out to fight clean with the new testing after a career of doping and then didn't like the results. Tried to go back to doping, and got busted. Speculation at this point, but it doesn't look good for Jones. If the start of USADA signals positive tests or substandard performances, it's not a good look.

Let's see what he popped for first.

Yeah I remember, I also remember DC also had similarly low TE levels (http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2015/1/9...aniel-cormier-te-ratio-low-drug-test-mma-news ).

TE levels are horrendously low at that time before a fight in training camp. You think what you want but the guy never has failed before and USADA are fucking with with positive tests due to tainted supplements recently....wait and see - believe me, i'll be the first to dance on his grave if its a designer PED but I highly doubt it. Also failing for cocaine is not a failure, street drugs don't count unless they are in your system the night of the fight.

 

[lefthighkick01]

like anybody that gets busted for PEDS..,but I aint saying anything about Jones until his B sample is tested and what he got popped for gets revealed

 

[Angle Shooter]

If it is for what we think it is, yes.

 

[Rav7n]

Busted..ruined the main event of the big event for the company with millions of dollars invested and let down his employers and fans alike..

AGAIN...

In any other line of work, what would his employers do, with his past history/second/third chances..??????????


Yes he would be fired..and he should be.

 

[Th3Sav4ge]

if its coke again i dont give a fuck

It really depends on what he tested positive for. If it was something stupid like ephedrine, not so much, but steroids or some sort of doping like EPO, very much so. He might even get a pass if it was that meldonium shit they have in Russia, but steroids or doping is really a legacy killer.
