WADA funded study confirms: ~ 40-60% of athletes are on PEDs but only 1-2% are caught

idc if real Sports like soccer use this for recovery, cuz they have 10000 times more games than ufc fighters.
 
I agree, lots of top athletes ARE doping.

That's why the UFC is so clean, there are very few "top athletes" and the rest simply cannot afford the type of PEDs you use to pass USADA testing.
Yep okay, you underestimate how far the american dollars goes in other countries for top level ped/doctors. Just cause a substance is undetectable doesnt automatically make it expensive.

The biggest thing peds are used for in this sport is recovery. MMA training everyday for months leading up into a fight is hell on the body and not sustainable for most people with medical help.

Then you have guys from russia and cuba who have soviet style state sponsored olympic/world championship doping programs.
 
With the NFL it's actually the NFL player union that hides it. It's in their CBA that the first one or two offenses the player is placed in a secret drug protocol program and that player is immune to suspension from drug/alcohol abuse during that time. Those players are forced into AA meetings and such.

The guys that get suspended for PEDs in the NFL are the ones that have been caught a bunch of times already.
Source that the union actively hides steroid pops?
 
Unless your testing top athletes who are training under WADA level testing then its irrelevant.
 
This is why Paulo Costa and Mr. Soldier of God get away with shit : 'Cause they have access to PEDs that aren't detectable(or at least no methods have been established to test for them).

Brock would've gotten away with it after UFC 200 if he used the same shit that Paulo did.
 
Was Fedor juicing?

Im a huge Fedor fan, but Id have to say yes, most probably.

He is from Russia, the juicing capital of the world. Plus, he started to go downhill immediately after he left Pride (probably due to his discontinued use of roids because of testing)
Fedor did not do well in Affliction?
 
no, hes right. wada have nothing to do with the ufc. ufc arent code signatories

but usada are.. so usada do have to act within the wada code and they do use the wada adams database for ufc testing

Transitive relation, UFC is compliant with USADA who is compliant with WADA. Meaningless semantics argument, trying to divert from the fact that most athletes are on PEDs and only 1-2% are caught

not really..

if the local garage is affiliated to the RAC, and I take my car into the local garage to have its brakes checked, that does not mean I have a relationship with the RAC
 
Why NBA needs roids is beyond me, though.
PEDs aren't just steroids. For the NBA, something like EPO would be really useful so a player can be almost fresh even at the end of the game. Medication to help improve focus or even steroids to help recover from an injury. It's not just about getting bigger muscles.
 
Even the absolute top end of that estimate seems low in my honest opinion.
 
There is only like 2 or 3 stories and they were an obvious work.....Stop making it sound like most of PRIDE fights were bullshit.


PRIDE FC is way more honest than the UFC.


Did you forget, that the UFC knew Vitor was on steroids and allowed him to fight Jon Jones....They knew all this info before the fight, but they cared about the bottom line and let the fight go anyways.



The UFC is shady as fuck.


They also knew Brock was juicing when he fought Mark Hunt
 
Well....this was relevant in 2011. When did USADA start? I bet that caught percentage is a lot higher today.
 
And if you take it right after youve been tested, what happens when they come back next day?

They do that a lot.. its a common tactic.. a day later, two days later. They did it to both Cerrone and Rashad this year, and a fair few others.



And no, its not out of your system in hours.. detection time is up to 3 days...

You would be caught pretty quickly,.. I do hope you arent in the registered testing pool...
I just did some research on testosterone suspension. It has a half life of 2 hours. It's out of the users system in less than a day... Why did you lie and claim it takes 3 days? It's attached to no ester which means it's active and released in the blood stream right away and used immediately.
 
If you don't pay them they can't afford PEDs

Half life is not the same as detection window.

I said it is detectable for up to 3 days which it is

That has nothing to do with half life. Half life is just the amount of time before half of the original dose is excreted.

A testosterone suspension can be detected for up to three days in anti doping tests.

Half life has absolutely nothing to do with anti doping detection windows





(also, bear in mind that administration will have an impact on your biological passport values. Usada can determine ped use without detecting the actual substance)
