Cain is obviously on stamina boosters. This dude is 245 lbs. and throws around other 250 + lbs. guys for 25 minutes and never gets tired. he has EPO written all over him.

I think Diaz bros, Florian and Roy are the only clean fighters. Maybe a good amount of the women. Any consistently physically dominant monster has to be on PEDs cause a clean dude is just not doing that to guys on gear, and it's clear that that's the majority of MMA fighters (one of the reasons I feel GSP is one of the biggest liars/hypocrites ever for insinuating he's one of the clean guys).

His performances don't seem believable to me. Florian, Nelson and the Diaz bros not only pass the eye test but genuinely look physically unimpressive performance wise. Any heavyweight who has better cardio than a featherweight in a sport that's not even centered around endurance like that (training wise) is highly suspicious.

I don't think any man who has ever won a UFC title except Bas Rutten (he used painkillers though) was clean.

Its no secret he was on TRT and he needed it medically for his pituary gland thing which causes that long ass face to occur. JDS tho is roiding. He was bald at 26 and his last fight he was ripped as fukk with backne everywhere. Plus, the main ones screaming about they are clean and there needs to be more testing are the ones who are doping.

Truth.

The eye test can be misleading. Josh Barnett is one of the biggest PED users in MMA and he looked like this:

Diaz and Nelson both have amazing cardio for their respective weight classes though

I agree. The eye test helps, but PED users can look like anything.

Nah, Nelson has crap cardio. He looked like absolute shyt against Frank Mir and wins 99% of his fights in the first round.

Diaz has pretty believable cardio for a (relatively) skinny triathlete who competes under 200 lbs.

That said, anyone who pops shouldn't be a surprise anymore. It's not guilty until proven innocent- it's simply you don't know until they piss dirty.

GSP's pulling a Carl Lewis post Ben Johnson drug pop:

Georges St-Pierre: Anderson Silva had 'biological weapon', it's cheating

http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2015/2/9...rson-silva-had-biological-weapon-its-cheating

GSP's coach: Anderson Silva 'similar' to Lance Armstrong, shouldn't be considered as greatest ever

http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2015/2/9...-silva-similar-to-lance-armstrong-shouldnt-be

:rolleyes:

Every fighter says 85-90% of fighters are using, yet whenever a drug bust occurs, 90% of fighters say everyone else is using except me and my teammates :mjlol: :heh:
