Official UFC Thread - Part 6

[DarthSkywalker]

Oh, but he wanted to fight Munoz. Dude is so transparent.

Anderson Silva busted for steroids! LOL

 

[B]

What the **** is going on? Silva for steroids, Diaz for marijuana. Really, REALLY disappointed in Silva failing.. an incredible blemish on such a prolific career even if it is at the tail end.

 

[E-Man]

Anderson is basically my MMA idol, so it sucks seeing him test positive like that. It really does suck because it puts a big black mark on his career. The best thing he could probably say is that it was treatment for his broken leg, but that should be verifiable. If he has documentation that the doctor prescribed what he got busted for then he'd be in the clear, but I'm not holding my breath on that. I'm also not going to pay too much attention to the bro scientists trying to get in their idiot jabs at Anderson because they are ******** about the stupid GOAT discussion. If you thought that Jones was bad then this is probably going to get worse.

 

[NicoSuave]

If I end up reading sometime this week that Dana White was found dead hanging from a ceiling fan with a belt around his neck, I would not be surprised. This has been a horrible few days for the UFC.

 

[Slushy]

St. Pierre's phone is ringing non-stop right now.

 

[Doc Samson]

Wasn't Silva just spouting off about Bones cleaning up his image after his positive test because kids are now looking up to him? Sheesh...

 

[DarthSkywalker]

The Anderson thing makes me sad. Nick is to be expected. GSP is Dana's only hope.

 

[DoomsdayApex]

Holy ******g poo. The UFC just lost its golden boy. That's all I got to say. Silva's legacy has been tarnished. Nothing now can ever repair it. GSP was smart to get out early.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

GSP was the one calling for better drug test. Olympic, year around stuff. He basically implied that Hendricks is on the juice and wasn't happy with having to fight guys on the juice while he was clean.

If GSP was busted, I would be legitimately shocked. He would be the only name. Well maybe Lyoto, but he is a Brazilian and they don't have the best track record on the whole.

 

[DoomsdayApex]

While true, GSP backed off Olympic testing himself after some discrepancies. I would hate it if St. Pierre tested positive for PEDs, but I wouldn't be shocked. Georges has always been a topic of discussion when arriving to steroids.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I don't remember him backing off. If we are talking about the Hendricks fight, I remember some weird crap going down that saw it called off for both guys.

 

[DoomsdayApex]

Question: Anderson Silva has been on the record citing that if a fighter is caught using performance enhancement drugs, they should receive a life long ban. So by his own merit, should Silva walk away from sport?

He should walk away because he is done no matter what. He looked well below par in his last fight and now got busted for what he has been talking crap about for years. This is disgrace.

 

[CrypticOne]

I think both Anderson and Nick will retire after this.

 

[NicoSuave]

Jon Fitch tests positive for elevated Testosterone levels! WOW!

 

[DoomsdayApex]

Jon Fitch tests positive for elevated Testosterone levels! WOW!

MMA is dead to me.

To be fair, it started to wane on me after Fedor retired. Well, there's always kickboxing...

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Jon Fitch? I hate MMA...

 

[CrypticOne]

HAHA! All the people who I didn't think would ever pop are getting caught! HAHA! They probably got tired of getting bullied and said, "Alright. Enough. If they can do it, I will." Sucks to see. Oh well. All these dudes need to retire anyway.

 

[E-Man]

I'm glad they're testing randomly despite the two recent high profile steroids busts. I always knew that more guys were using than were caught, but I never really thought that it was this huge number like some fighters and fans claimed. I still don't think it's as bad as some fans think either, but cleaning things up puts them on the right track.

 

[Fallen Angel]

Speaks' volumes that elite performers in every sport these day's are willing to risk their careers and their life just to get ahead of the field. it will never be 100% clean but you have to weed out the culprit's.

WADA figures out how to detect one drug, these guy's will come up with another masking agent and so it's undetectable.

 

[E-Man]

Science will always be ahead of the curve. Just like how pirates will always be ahead of the curve when it comes to people finding ways to watch entertainment for free.

 

[Warhammer]

This is all making my heart hurt.

But honestly, E-Man is right.

That's because I'm always right. Sure I got some picks wrong, but my alternate universe selves got those picks right. It's all in the hyphen.

 

[TheVileOne]

My guess is that Fitch is desperately trying to hang on to relevancy so that is why he started juicing now.

Disappointed in Silva, but honestly I think the juice should be legal. However if you break the rules its your own fault.

I'm just boggled that Nick Diaz is so much of a pothead that he can't stop smoking weed a couple months out from the biggest fight and payday of his career. Why give up that extra money to the commission just because you got to smoke the wacky tobacky?

Also, I don't believe GSP is innocent either.

All the ****ers getting caught now have been outspoken about enhanced drug testing and cheaters in the past. Especially Fitch and Silva.

GSP didn't start crusading against the gear until late in his career. I am not saying he is definitely guilty, but it did come off like a case of "he doth protest too much."
