some things don't make big enough of a difference to be blanket made illegal at all times (like out of competition marijuana use). I'd be fine with weed testing if there was a "are you high on the day of the fight" test but it doesn't exist and what does only serves to gently caress up matchmaking and careers. at the end of the day, if we want a safer and more fair sport the thing to do is get rid of weight cutting, not go after weed or IV using fighters with another garbage government run organization like USADA. the athletic commissions are bad enough, we don't need enforcement agents visiting fighters to watch them pee

IV's are banned because of blood doping, and there's nothing to test for that other than plastic from the IV.

I don’t understand this. You may as well claim that Gatorade should be illegal because they might hydrate better but you don’t like it.

Injecting a few marijuanas the night before doesn’t gently caress you up for the next day. Have you ever been around weed or are you just regurgitating old 80s scare propaganda? Should alcohol also be banned?

What does everyone think of hentai

should fighters be banned from watching, discussing or beating their meat to japanese animated hentai pornography?

what about the knockoff western kind you see on regular types of porn websites that say poo poo like "click exactly 14 times to see the black guy who owns the bar to skeet on lois griffins titties" is that more or less ok?

Watch me try to laugh this title off like the dickbag I am.

I also hang out with racists.
So I watched Jens Pulver again last night. He flashed his two UFC title belts for the camera and someone immediately tipped him $300. Then his chat dogpiled on this one guy and called him a casual because the guy didn't know who Jens was.

Really nice guy though. I'm glad he no longer needs to get his brain scrambled on z-league shows to make ends meet.

It makes me laugh how people get so defensive is someone criticises weed in any capacity, even if they're not really criticising it at all.
It's like steak. Everyone has an opinion about steak and they're desperate to let you know it and tell you you're wrong.

And no one gives a single gently caress about what you think of either.

well, i compete in sport, and i can tell you that i dont want my opponents jacking it to hentai because it means they arent experiencing blue balls like i am, theyre probably sleeping better too as a result of that and therefore recovering better and waking up in better form, and frankly i dont want some guy who masturbated to tentacle monsters last night riding a bike at 30mph shoulder to shoulder with me either though i suppose the last point doesnt apply to fighting. bear in mind hentai is still illegal in my country, true im not an international pro but what about in the UFC, where one fighter is in a legal state and another isnt? as far as recreational use goes i dont care one way or the other, but sport is different

also, same. but that's mostly because in the amateur ranks i'd feel like a loving moron saying i got beat because the opponent smoked reefer. at the top of the tree though, where the difference between the champ getting ppv points and the next best earning 50/50 is infinitesimally small, and scientists say it can give a slight edge, i'd expect my opponent to please not be smoking the reefer.

yeah thats fair i just wouldnt care bc i personally dont feel like it really enhances performance in a tangible enough way to be banned. i'd be a lot more worried about them being on designer steroids like the cuban olympic team

i think the affects on anxiety (positive and negative) can make a big difference and that alone should make it banned if its supposed to be a real sport.

Leon Edwards has only lost twice in the UFC, both to guys who are (Usman and Claudio? Silva) undefeated and beating up other guys who we've heard of.

That’s fair I just don’t think it makes a big enough difference to be banned. I think most athletes just use it recreationally not for like treating anxiety or something
