Thanks, this is the first time I've seen this fight.

I went out to a fight party for 187, and when Vitor got finished I left ASAP

Brazilian USADA-linked site doesn’t say that 7-keto-DHEA is banned

'Lyoto Machida's claim that he did not have proper education about banned substances is supported by new information'

I'm still laughing at this situation versus Jon's. Jon was clearly taking multiple post cycle PEDs, while Machida takes a banned substance that has little to no performance enhancing benefits and is readily available over the counter in places like Walmart. Machida comes in telling the truth and is up front. While Jon and his team come up with a story that has multiple holes and is very likely to be completely fabricated. We also find out now that Machida was right, he did not receive proper education regarding banned substances. Jon gets 12 months and Machida gets 18 months. fukk you USADA.

I also saw this. What is USADA doing?:

There are problems with USADA's Q&A on Lyoto Machida

What for? You strip the champion when his or her inactivity is having a detrimental effect on the division. The LHW division doesn't have any contenders,unless you want to see bader vs Johnson 2 for the interim?

Silver lining here is this pointless rematch is postponed and hopefully we are closer to july. That NSAC announcement can't come soon enough

I didn't say anything about stripping him, I'm talking about someone beating him and taking the title off of him, which can't happen when you're pulling out of multiple title fights in one calendar year(obv Jones fukked up the other). Don't really see how this is a pointless rematch, Cormier isn't gonna sit on his ass waiting for Jones's situation to get resolved, the earliest he can come back is July and I can definitely see Nevada fukking him for much longer than that. There was no other options except Rumble and just cuz Cormier got rocked and was able to survive in one fight doesn't mean that's always gonna be the case. You gotta smarten up fam.
