The drugs made him look like a bitch........ And Silva's not the one that tapped either.
As far as AAS not helping him.....Cmon Nate...... If it even helps MLB guys improve their power numbers by 1/3, whats it gonna do in a sport as physical as MMA? Silva was subpar, or he looked subpar against a guy on some juice?
Silva was sub par that night. Sonnen had a better game plan than everyone else Silva has ever faced. He was willing to take a shot or 10 to roll with his game plan. It was executed to perfection.
Gear doesn't do that. Unless dropping abombs and strong androgens I just don't see AAS being a huge component in MMA to the point where you make a world class fighter look average at best.
We've all see what a well executed game plan does to opponents and what a poor game plan can do as well.
I lost 20 pounds...How? I drank bear piss and took up fencing. How the **** you think, son? I exercised.
It seems like the majority of guys testing positive are fighters that you wouldn't really suspect are on AAS. Tim Sylvia, Stephan Bonnar, Josh barnett, Sonnen is in excellent shape but by appearance not as ripped as allot of UFC fighter. Shawn Sherk being one of the exceptions.
I agree with Nate,
I cant see how AAS can make you a better fighter, does it allow you to see all the punches come in slow motion ? lol
i'm on AAS and I can tell you i still suck at fighting. my lil sister can probably kick my ass.
The gear allows them to train harder without getting burned out.
Bullshit.
I use gear and I BUST ASS in the gym and I get burned out when dieting for a show. Energy levels plummet, strength goes down (the closer I get to show time); focus and concentration is virtually nill, etc. I'm not training anywhere near as hard as these guys do for a fight and I still get major burnt out near the end.
Even bulking I get burnt out.
They're burning out regardless of geared up or not.
