Mekchu's not a big SA fan anymore and even if I disagree I get it. But let's not post about posters/ex-posters and stick to the great news about our great sport, like the discovery that the guy in charge of the UFC's new drug testing initiative trains with ATT, one of the most notorious steroid camps in mixed martial arts! https://twitter.com/SpinninBackfist/status/1713215608135774550

So this actually got funnier today. Previously, during the initial announcements, it turned out one of the former higher-ups at the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Agency was going to be in charge of the UFC's in-house drug assessments: Mike Russell, who is an excellent reporter who does not get nearly enough credit, dug this up from a decade ago: quote:Emails reveal former ASADA official Daniel Eichner privately obtained supplements from Darren Hibbert Turns out he was on the take from at least one supplement manufacturer he helped shield from investigation, left ASADA before he could face any consequences, and no-commented the whole thing. So the two people in charge of the UFC's drug testing program are going to be a Bush FBI agent who trains with one of the sport's biggest steroid camps and a lab scientist who already helped tip the scales in favor of PED manufacturers. It's gonna be a great year.

Without having reviewed positive results, it's just the eye test for me. e: and I assume you meant ATT. fighters I assume are juicing / juiced / have gotten busted at ATT: - Alves - Tibau - Arlovski - Barboza - Roan Carneiro - Marcos Rogerio de Lima - Bigfoot - Bobby Lashley - King Mo - Lombard - Yoel - JDS - Shoeface - Woodley fighters who could very well be juicing, but pass my eye test: - Dustin Poirier - Pantoja - Mike Brown - JJ kimbo305 fucked around with this message at 17:43 on Oct 16, 2023 |

Street Horrrsing posted:Why is AKA one of the biggest steroid gyms? Has there been some high profile pops or is this some inside baseball talk? What kimbo305 said, but there have also been various stories of fighters coming out of ATT talking about the fairly open steroid culture, with Julianna Pena's being one of the more famous mostly for Dan Lambert's reaction: quote:UFC bantamweight contender Julianna Pena claims an unnamed coach at American Top Team (ATT) told her that most of the female fighters at the famed MMA gym, which is run by Dan Lambert in Coconut Creek, Fla., were “shooting their butts with steroids” when she spent a week on location back in 2013.

Thanks for the info guys. It's not as if the gym that was founded from selling scam cruise line tickets would be impossible to consider of engaging in unethical conduct.

fighters may still receive USADA lab employees at their home demanding samples, but they needn't worry; these are just pulsing testers.

I couldn’t find anything with a search, but I thought some prominent MMA gym’s members got caught with a poo poo ton of pills. I thought it was ATT but maybe I’m totally misremembering.

I vaguely remember this incident and I want to say it was connected to Jackson Wink and Eric Blasich, who Jon Jones alleges is the guy that gave him the boner pills that were laced with East German steroids.

Barboza/Yusuff, Martinez/Yanez and Elkins/Brown were the most fun altogether fights, Pereira/Petroski and McKinney/Marotte were the most fun fights that could've been gifs. Also, on the topic of Bellator being sold off, I guess this is probably why: https://twitter.com/KevinI/status/1714312198150070541 Kind of wild to be one of the only networks getting OUT of the live sports model in 2023, but go with god, I guess.

Also, Mayra Bueno Silva's been suspended until the end of November and had her win over Holly Holm turned into a no-contest. One more of those awful Ritalin abusers off the streets.
