Wanderlei Silva gets lifetime ban

You are still ignoring the key difference that Overeem had already been licensed, fought and beat the shit out of his opponent when he fled his test, and none of those were true for Wanderlei.

And Overeem fled the country. Wanderlei did the same thing. Overeem didn't even get punished at all the 1st time he ran.
 
He can always fight in his country and anywhere else far from this comic NSAC.

#1 the NSAC accepted his testimony about returning to see his sick mother and took the test as soon as he was made aware that he needed too. Now you can laugh at this (i do) and call BS, but that doesn't change the outcome of the decision by the NSAC.

#2 he returned (within minutes) and took the test.

so clown boy the cases against Overeem are not similar to Wand's case at all.

i don't like either of you, but i think hans is right here. they seem similar and AO seems to have messed up worse than wand.

You are dead wrong.

Overeem ran twice. He returned the 2nd time after they warned him and Kizer go ta hold of him and threatened him.. That is the difference. Overeem ran twice and only got a 9 month suspension out of everything.

are you stupid or did you hit your head recently? The commission accepted his testimony in regards to the 141 case, therefore he didn't run.

at the 146 presser he ran and was told to return and did. Wand was told to return and fled to Brazil.

that is why Overeem got 9 months and wand got an indefinite suspension. If wand had come back when told too, he would have got 6-12 months.....oh well.

Overeem was smart enough not to wait until the commission testing guy was there standing infront of him. Overeem gave himself a plausible (slightly) story.

please tell me how? he is under UFC contract and the UFC is not going against the NSAC.

his contract with the ufc is a separate matter though a slick lawyer might be able to get him out of it seeing as he can never really fight for the ufc again.

tell me how that worked out for Ken Shamrock, oh wait let me tell you he owes the UFC 175,000 in legal costs.
 
I agreed with this decision though I'm pretty disgusted by the NSAC's inconsistent judgment is in doling out punishments.

It's hard to justify a lifetime ban when Overeem got a slap on the wrist for the same thing.

As long as the rules are known and enforced with some semblance of uniformity I'll be fairly happy. I do not expect to be happy.
 
Who cares? Dude has retired, he isn't fighting anymore and all he was doing was getting knocked out by mid-level fighters. He was cheating and this ban is simply to seal the deal on his retirement; final nail in the coffin and I am fine with it.

not ignoring, I just don't care if he (or any fighter) is licensed or not. I have no issue at all with the NSAC testing any fighter at any time.

Bullshit....they have ZERO authority outside their state and would need a federal court to do something like that.

Not unless the other AC's cooperate with the Nevada AC.

Which they absolutely would, and it's pretty silly to think they wouldn't.

Or, just the other state commission to say, "Hey, you own Navada this money, you have to agree to pay it out of your purse or you don't get licensed here."
 
Chael are Barnett can fail test 3 times and still fight again but Wand gets a lifetime ban?

HAHAHAHA! You are the one calling me stupid when you keep proving my point.

Overeem ran and was treated differently you moron.

That was the whole point.

What Overeem did was actually worse than Silva. He ran twice and only got 9 months out of the whole thing and was called "nice and respectful" by the commission as they gushed over him.

You are the only one that doesn't get it. Even Hollywood Nicky is siding with me and he hates me.

You fail to see the differences simply because you don't want to.
 
I would just like to point out that so far in the poll results, the only two mods who have voted, both voted NOT to ban.

How's that for irony.
 
It was a joke but the commission is a joke so what do you expect
 
Fuck the commission, they are a bunch of clowns.

Wand should just fight in Brazil/Canada/Japan/ect now.

What does Dana say about all this??
