Honestly, all of this nonsense about whether he/she is on drugs is silly. They all are, or at least most of them. Getting caught for taking PEDs should be held to the same standard as failing to make weight, or having a poor training camp. It's a part of being successful in MMA, and you ought to be good at it.

Is Brock on drugs? Sure is! But he's great at passing tests. Chael is not. Jon Jones apparently isn't.

Stop calling these guys cheaters. They aren't. They are just bad at doing something that is vital to competing at the highest level in sports. Make fun of them for that.
 
As if it's different in any other sport

Nice thread 1394425323400.jpg
 
It's okay, you're just going through the five stages of grief. It's always like this in the beginning. But don't worry, it'll pass.

so are weight cuts. If you master both, you will probably hold the belt at some point.
 
Yep, steroids are even rampant in college sports. You guys think world class pro-athletes aren't running all kinds of shit when there's millions of dollars on the table?

100% agree. IMHO passing drug tests is a big part of all sports. Many top level athletes have 'drug coaches' that source them gear and lay out their cycle for them.

UFC drug users should be moving to designer steroids if they're smart. USADA can detect most of the super powerful well known compounds I'm sure...
 
It's only cheating if you get caught, and if you get caught you deserved to called a cheater. Brock hasn't been caught and deserves the benefit of doubt.

Some of my favorite fighters are Anderson, Vitor, and Jones and I have no problem with them being called cheaters because they were caught.

It's institutionalized in many countries...they'll help the athletes get through the process.
 
No this only applies to pre USADA era

There are no more skills or science to beating the system now, you are literally playing russian roulette if you are taking PED under USDA testings.

Lesnar was literally arrested for steroids when he was 26. Mug shots and everything out there.
 
Other sports don't even bother. In the NFL. They only do scheduled testing. No random testing. Also if you pop for roids. You get a 30 day 4 game suspension. Oh the horror!!!

I think the new owners may just abolish USADA.
