What if it turns out Adesanya´s pec was infact gyno?

What if it really is gynecomastia?
Does the fight get overturned and Costa wins by disqualification or is it No Contest?
How would Puma react if that happens they just started sponsoring him and this was his first fight representing them?

It is gyno, he used PEDs most likely, but he passed all the tests so life moves on.

Now he is mentally dependent of these drugs and he will be watched more carefully by USADA good luck to him.
 
is it or is it not strange that he suddenly has gyno if he has been a long time PED user. does gyno happen suddenly in those that never have had issues with it and are on PED.

Medicine is not exact science, he might have used a higher dose, it might have been his first time, but what is clear is that medication to prevent gyno, which is an aromatase inhibitor, is very easy to catch and a lot of fighters have been caught because of this medications. (Anastrozole)

They stop testosterone from being converted to estrogen

It'd be a no contest.
How? He passed his tests and he could say the gyno is from anything. They can't overturn your win because they find injection bumps on your belly when you passed your tests, or gyno, right?

To my understanding you passed your test and then if it's gyno you just have to come up with an excuse or plausible story, no?
 
Some have speculated it could be injury but if it somehow gets proven without a doubt its gyno then what happens to him?
Lots of shit can give you gyno. From cannabis and alcohol to normal (as in illness) hormonal issues. Granted, hormonal issues seem to happen during puberty and old age. The point: Proving gyno doesn't prove anything.
 
A no contest means no loss of title?

Im a bit flabbergasted that anyone that does drug testing missed this.

I was drunk as fuck that Saturday night and watching at a bar, on a tv, i pointed it out immediately, with zero people disputing it.

At the same time, i dont care if people juice, so i get little joy out of this.
But even if the drug tester found it you can't suspend someone for gyno. It's not a PED. There are many medical reasons you could have gyno. It's no more condemning than Costa's physique. We might know both are on PEDs but you can't go suspending ppl for suspicious attributes. They have to fail a test, no?
 
It is gyno. It doesn't mean it will be a NC if they can't pinpoint what substance he took.

It's the same way USADA can test for LH and FSH being close to 0 but they can't do anything about it unless they can pinpoint the substance that's suppressing that person

This guy knows his stuff

I’m not necessarily disagreeing with you on some of that, but saying he is “mentally dependent” on the drugs now?

Where do you guys come up with this stuff? How is that even something that can be a quantified?
 
It'll get forgotten about in no time, just like Conor's weird looking post surgery pecs

I thought the guy was assuming it turned out it proved he'd been using.

Well proving gyno does not prove PEDs, no. I think he'd have to fail a test to be punished or sanctioned. They can't say he looks suspicious or else a ton of guys are getting sanctions too, starting with Costa. Izzy's passed his tests and done his job. Good show.

Can´t be quantified, the psychological impact exists, imagine winning a fight on gear and having to fight the next one without it.

If you've fought your 100 previous fights without it? I'd think it would be a reasonable adjustment to make.

That’s not what I mean. I know a psychological impact with Peds exists in the world of sports ....What I’m saying is in your post you definitively state that he’s dependent on the Peds now. How do we even know that? This entire situation was brought up because of one fight. Now he’s mentally dependent? It’s statements like that that make people throw out terms like “bro science” and so on. There’s no way to quantify all of that after just one “alleged” incident of Peds.
 
absolutely incorrect, tons of guys get it only on one side

No, in epidemiology it's is very rare <2% that develop gyno on one side with no symptoms of it on the other side when caused by steroids.

Sorry about your anecdote though. I'm sure the tons of guys with one bitchtit are upset.

That “if” is doing a lot of work there. All we know is something changed with the last fight and he grew a titty. That something could easily be his normal mix being thrown off - maybe the testing shifted, maybe he miscalculated - who knows. But you don’t grow a titty for no reason and It’s unlikely to be a one-time thing at this stage of his career. That would be a huge dice roll.
 
Why would it be a no contest if it was determined to be gyno? It looks to pretty clearly be gyno, but even if that is the case it doesn’t mean he took anything he wasn’t supposed to; the body is capable of chemical imbalance on its own.
 
Why is everyone here so dumb? It clearly is gyno, but that doesn't necessarily mean he took PEDs. The body can do weird things. You can get hormone imbalances because of diet and lifestyle factors
