He really could've been champ. (thank god he wasn't) The Weidman fight was his first fight off TRT and a year after it was cut off. He looked like a aggressive old man in that fight.
Ridiculous the number of Sherdoggers back then saying TRT doesn't teach you how to throw kicks. Reminiscent of baseball players saying steroids doesn't teach you how to hit homeruns.
Lands one spinning back kick against a champion level fighter in his entire career and people still don't believe the advantages it gives. Belfort wasn't even landing regular headkicks (KO or non-KO) before TRT
I still remember when everyone said Hendo had the best chin and couldnt be KO'ed then TRTitor shoryukened him and KO'd him twice in the same fight.
he actually had weidman backed up against the cage which was a big wtf. Also he looked sickly skinny and gaunt in his face. Cheating 100% but for some reason I let it slide with Vitor. What really irked me was that Weidman literally held out on that fight for 2+ years pretending with injuries and shit, he waited until they got Vitor off the gear and then he fought him. Fuck Weidman for taking that away from me.
I'm curious the biological advantages behind it. Like did it basically give Vitor the physiology of a 21 year old athlete but with the knowledge/skill of a 36 year old mma fighter? because that what rogan was basically saying. Vitor had 20+ years of knowledge and skill crammed into that TRT body.
hmm...yeah... strictly talkin´about skill set evolution, he reunited with [karate] trainer Vinicio Antony by the time he started his final UFC run, tho...
much like a strong male zebra, TRT vitor had hind legs of great power and strength, however, he does not posses a tongue that is of suitable length to be considered one of our kind.
