How would people see Gus/DC going? Assuming they got to fight before Jones comes back.

Triticum Guzzler posted:here's an article about blood doping that shows how easy it is, how effective it is, and passes the tests http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-32983932 That's really interesting! I'd never heard about micro-dosing before, it's insanely effective. Looks like people will still have amazing cardio even after USADA come in. david carmichael posted:jones doesn't really shoot ever, and gus moved well enough to stay at range. the other thing was that gus was tall/long enough to not have to get within jones' clinching range in order to land a punch Cool, I'll look out for that when I watch it tonight!

LeftistMuslimObama posted:So he didn't actually mention any performance tests after coming off the EPO. I assume the idea with the microdosing is that when you come off, the harder training you did+whatever extra red blood cells you gained that haven't died off yet are enough to give you an advantage over someone clean? I thought he got tested for three weeks after he came off it in week eleven. Testing was fourteen weeks and I think he doped from week 4-11. So he still passed.

LeftistMuslimObama posted:RIght, but he didn't say anything about his performance once he stopped taking the EPO. He only tests his V02max before and during the EPO, but not after. Oh yeah sure, my mistake! I assume though even if it just means you get to train twice as hard due to lack of fatiguing you have an edge via sheer amount of training. Or that you can be on micro-doses of EPO even during the fight if I read things right?

I read an interview with Conor and his family recently in FO. Apparently his mam is really supportive so she sits cageside but is too nervous to actually watch the fight so she looks away while his dad tells her what's happening. Very

Modesty was a poor word choice. I meant it was nice to hear an honest answer and not a "I can beat anyone on this planet in a given night"

El Roncho posted:Ronda vs Dude posts are a sherdog level discussion and as a long time lurker and seldom poster here, I know you guys are better than that. For the most part. Come on guys. They are very silly and pointless discussions but funnily the person who mentions it the most in the media is Ronda. Not long after her "a man should never hit a woman" quote she was saying in interviews she could beat any guy in the UFC.

Street Horrrsing posted:So Aldo got randomly tested by the NSAC, he used the wanderlei defense, and eventually called the brazillian commission, whose president is the doctor that used to prescribe and grant TRT exemptions. All of a sudden, the nsac guy applied for the wrong visa, which is "business" instead of "work" and the sample got thrown down the drain. That explains this I suppose

acai moonsault posted:Conor's said he spontaneously got so many tattoos because being out injured after he fought Max Holloway was driving him crazy, the ape on his chest is supposed to be his gym's insignia though. I thought they were dumb and bad looking but I like the ape now. As far as MMA tattoos go it could be worse and you could have SCOGGINS on your back in comic sans. Yeah he asked for a few designs of the SBG gorilla and chose that one. Also I agree that Scoggins is the wors tattoo in MMA for sure Torres and Rosa were very cool together on embedded but not cool enough to quite make me forget he calls himself 'Boston Strong'

Yeah that's where he started in Dublin. Didn't realise it was a chain actually! Just assumed it was John Kavanagh's gym.

If Aldo wins will he have beaten Andy's record including WEC defenses? The New promo says he's on 10 straight? Also including champions who remained champion during a IFC merger is Andy still the record holder?

Surely he also has most NSAC Hearing postponments too! Seriously though that is an incredible set of accolades. You and fatherdog are encyclopedias.
