Good read, but it's no surprise that there is special treatment for more popular and talented athletes, and that goes for most of the major sports as ultimately sports are in the entertainment business. USADA is far from perfect but compared to Bellator or Rizin, there is at least some level of PED policing in place in the UFC.Whether it's true or not, the officials and USADA agree that Jones' latest sample showed an extremely low amount of the prohibited substance, and that it was not a new ingestion and rather a residual amount from his prior exposure for which he has already served a suspension.
didnt say persay more that it was so low that they sure that he couldn't have taken recently ( but MMA fighter in article , Mir had lower pictograms then him and they said it helped them so there saying both ways) then Jeff preceeds to say turnibal is not approved for humans worldwide so they don't knew much about it and how long it it take to rid it in a mirco dosing session because there now research on it. It's a really weird situation . Only people how really knows are peopep who use it tbh .

[/Quote] strange that he tested positive twice before both after coming off suspension, strange he would yell at a cop while loaded, strange he would flee the scene of a hit and run the come back for his drugs and flee again. Stange he still hangs with body building juice heads. Surely he's not dumb enough to as you said take em because he has a fight coming up[/Quote]

an_roll_laughAgreed it is a strange situation OhJay

Character flaws and poor decisions in the past aside, Jon Jones is the best fighter on the planet.

This card is pretty stacked to end the year. Except I’m not sure why B.J. Penn is still fighting at 40 years old and on a 5 fight losing streak with his last win being in 2010.

Also, interested to see if Mendes is really back; great matchup with Volkanovski.

had GSP Winning Dana went on and on bout damage but damage wasn't a criteria in the rule set til after that fight takedown s and total strikes leaned with the goat . 

I believe Hendricks had won Lawler 2 fight though
