UFC Live: Marquardt vs. Story - June 26 on Versus

[SHOGUN]

funny how all these life long athletes and fighters all have low test levels all of a sudden

How else do you figure Randy Couture being so good for so long?

 

:trolldance:

 

[Liquidrob]

Yeap, randy started all this I love it when 24 year old like duffee do it also

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

What's this caught cheating?

Is it from the fact he didn't tell the PSAC until they tested him?

Believe as long as he has prescriptions for the shots/pills, it's all allowed, no?

Your last sentance is absurdly dense.

Why do you think so many MMA fighters, in the prime of their lives and in fantastic physical condition, have low testosterone levels?

That's rhetorical, btw.

These guys dope for years, to the point their bodies are so confused that they wont produce their own testosterone.

Its mind blowing you would defend him. Even if he didn't intend to cheat this time, the reason he lacks testosterone to begin with is due to his past cheating.

 

[Liquidrob]

Poor askren and the bellator guys, they keep trying but can't make anything happen

Lombard called out hendo, jacare, alvarez and gil, askren trying to make it happen now, to bad mma fans don't push zuffa to copromote

I dont see why Nate should be punished for the same non-sense that its well known many fighters are taking, and even have been caught for. Dana just got butt-hurt that it ruined his main event and fired Nate. Poor guy. If you aint cheatin, you aint tryin..

I can understand firing guys who get caught, but where the hypocricy lies is with Chael Sonnen, who essentially did the same thing but didn't even have proper medical permission to do it, so he didn't get caught until after his fight. But we all know why he is still employed.

 

[Liquidrob]

Nate was seen as overpaid and isn't a draw, easy firing, that's why this sport will never be legit with one group in control, WWE that is 'real' is all it will ever be

 

[Kuzzy Powers]

I also found it ironic that Spike showed several hours of "The best of Nate Marquartd" on Sunday after the firing.

On at least one of those Fight Nights, they edited out the Nate fight. So they basically did a best of Nate marathon without the Nate fights.

I'm not saying he wasn't on the juice in the past, but if Askren was referring to that, then fine.

Tons of wrestlers use the low testosterone deal so they could get it from physicians....isn't that what Benoit was doing?

They're in the business of making money. If it was a straight up 100% sport with no entertainment factor, they wouldn't be in business.

And the fights they did show were some of his worst performances.

I have grown tried of your shilling and worrying about zuffa's money over the good of the sport

 

[Liquidrob]

I love that spike counter programmed the VERSUS card, to funny

You always act surprised the Fertitta's are in a business to make money.

It's not like they created it from scratch.

They showed his fight with Sonnen :smug:

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

You are aware what they use for testosterone replacement, right?

Steroids. That's why they won't let you fight with elevated levels.

Tons of wrestlers use the low testosterone deal so they could get it from physicians....isn't that what Benoit was doing?

Yes. Benoit had the low testoterone from 20 years of steroid abuse. The body shuts down your natural production after a while, which should tell you how much doping these fighters do.

Benoit also found mark doctors who were willing to overprescribe him. Its easy for these athletes to find jock sniffing doctors who will do that in exchange for an autographed picture for the office waitroom.

I figured as much. I think the athletic commissions should crack down on this hard.
