If PEDS are legalized the camps with the best medical staff would dominate. The less informed fighters with little money would not stand a chance. Fighters with money would have a huge advantage, PED regiments are expensive. Of course PEDS do not guarantee success but they make a huge difference. Many Sherdoggers have no idea the difference PEDS make in nearly every aspect of MMA. See Ben Johnson (speed), Lance Armstrong, (endurance/strength), Barry Bonds (Power) ....this list goes on and on.
Imagine your kid or brother getting called up to the UFC only to get hurt badly by an opponent on a full PED regiment.
Having your favorite older fighters fighting on TRT exemptions just increases their chance of CRT.
In my dream world, the athletic commissions administer equal amounts of drugs during training camp, and prescribe a cocktail for recovery after the fight.
On the tale of the tape we could see what they were given.
...and you dont need to quote me to tell me this is a flawed, expensive, unreal idea.
