Brut posted:Is it that IV rehydration masks everything or is it just that they specifically test for plastic particles that would result from injections and IV rehydration gives plausibility for those being there? Asking out of general curiosity rather than trying to say anything about Weidman. IV rehydration is indeed banned because of its ability to mask other PEDs by temporarily diluting the concentration of those things in the blood. It's not an effective cover vs USADA testing, or even against high-quality lab testing that can detect metabolites on the picograms levels. It is possible that was part of the Hendricks/Weidman fall-off, but given the amount of weight cutting trouble the former had, and the damage that the latter absorbed, I don't think it's necessary for a coherent story. kimbo305 posted:It's the plastic saline bags giving off microplastics that's the tell for IV rehydration, so the first case. I'm sure there's a tiny volume that comes injecting with plastic syringes, but presumably not a detectable threshold. You can use glass bottles and tubing to get around it, but that is extremely hard to set up and transport, not as many people know how to do it, and the pt. needs to sit perfectly still for the duration of the IV.

I remember in the first half of that Weidman-Rockhold fight thinking a "wow this is a really good fight between two very very good fighters" and they beat each other silly.

Speaking of goons vs MMA fighters Jason MacDonald is doing an invite-only clinic near me today but I can't go because of my own work schedule. Yes, it's on a Wednesday afternoon, which makes sense in a context which I'm not going to share.

DO YALL WANT A BOXC posted:was it a Fatherdog post that was something like: the toughest guy you know could fight the toughest guys in your state, then all the state champs could fight for the regional belt, then those guys could fight to get national notice, then all of the top guys could fight for the privilege to get the poo poo beat out of them by Jack Johnson? that's kind of what it feels like. It was fatherdog paraphrasing a statement from an old-time boxing journalist - the tougest guy on the block / guy who can whip everyone in the neighbourhood / the guy in the town who can whip all of the best guys in every neighbourhood / the guy in the state who can whip all of the best guys from every town... if he's lucky he can get a life-altering beating from Jack Dempsy.

LobsterMobster posted:Look, I realize and accept I am a rabid fan of Jun Yong Park, but when is a dude who is 7-2 in UFC, on a 4 fight win streak with 3 RNC finishes in a row gonna get some ranked opponents I kinda want to see Iron Turtle vs Big Chase Hooper, and then the winner of that vs someone like Roman Dolidze

The new meta is to get a DUI ahead of a title fight to guarantee your excuse for a rematch

Kragger99 posted:Question for the thread: Who was the MMA fighter that got you into watching/following MMA? Ken Shamrock, Randy Couture, Karo Parysian all got my attention in different ways. I was into it in the early early days as a teenager, but it was hard to follow/watch. Those three really got my eyes on the sport quite a bit more.

CarlCX posted:I had always been interested in MMA, but Ken Shamrock in the WWF plus parents who had recently given up on content bans were what got me to finally rent UFC tapes from Blockbuster. But the guy that wound up sticking with me most? I owned this on VHS and it may still be kickin' around somewhere.
