Nah silva was an "honest" mistake he took it to rehab. Not to gain an advantage plus he didn't know it was on the ban substances.
I agree that what he got popped for was the ish he took to heel/rehab. Whether he's been a career cheat we will never know. But to say he didn't know it was banned when he took it is wild dude had a steroid cocktail one of which was the the kind Ben Johnson used. He knew I just think the rationale was its out of competition so what's the harm :yeshrug:

If you watch the episode where he got popped he is on the phone telling his manager to call his wife to get all the stuff he is taking to recover from the medicine cabinet. :manny: he believes he didn't take anything

Ps as for this Gilbert news :ld: he was never as good as he thought he was but anti-ufc nerds would trump him up just because he wasn't signed by zuffa :beli:. Dude was really feeling himself just for beating Thompson 10million times and feasting on some featherweight Asians then he got to the ufc and ppl were acting like beating Diego still meant something in 2013 :why: gets outclassed on the floor (which is suppose to be his office) by bendo and everyone says "no he didn't" "he won that fight, Gilbert was robbed" :stopitslime: then he holds out to get paid and can't find a W :heh: The way dude presented himself all these years you would just never guess he was a juicer. He even lamented that Pettis made him feel old and all the while he's been a juicer. Lol at the dry way he ain't even denying it, it's like dude needed a vacation but didn't want to tell zuffa "no, I can't take that fight"

Ps An injury prone Mexican that is billed as the fighter who grinds his opponents to victory :ohhh:Wonder who else gets popped :steviej:

you are the most successful story in the ufc and you just got caught cheating, you are currently on a reality show and the camera is all up in your nostrils, what do you do? be stone faced? Turn to the camera and grin like a dastardly villian? Of course you behave like there has been a miscarriage of justice

i would like to believe that. . .but "willful ignorance is no excuse". . .silva is one of my top four favorite mma fighters, but he should have been more educated (in my opinion)

i just hope he comes back clean and still destroys whoever is put in his "line of fire" :banderas:

They're catching everybody out here :mjlol:

Don't be surprised if you see a bunch of big names in the UFC move to Bellator by the end of the year because of the Reebok deal and this stringent drug testing.
A bunch of fighters are going to be swole up in Nike gear come next year.

Come on breh Anderson cheated and got caught. There was no 'honest mistake'. And it hurts for me to say this because I'm an Anderson stan :mjcry: I want to believe he's innocent :mjcry:
