MMA 2013

So in 24 hours, we saw one fight get scrapped due to a bad weight cut, a title fight get cut due to a bad weight cut, and two others missed weight as well. That has to be some sort of record.

 

[DaBoom]

Finally caught up to current events. And now that I'm browsing through this ufc.tv thing, I was wondering if any of you watch these events live?

I thought it could be fun to use Teamspeak or something similar, if there's more of us following an event..?

I usually watch it live on cable.
I also comment it with PunisherBass on IRC.

Also, I just found out that Vitor WON'T be tested by the NSAC before his fight with Weidman. That's just fucking lovely, I can't wait to see Chris put this fucker through the canvas.

Wait, what? Why?

 

[Punisher Bass]

Wait, what? Why?

I've been asking that for 2 days now.

 

[Lightning Count]

So sanity has at last prevailed, Vitor just got tested randomly by the NSAC.

If he pisses hot again, he should be cut.

Vitor is a guy who literally pissed hot off the charts, the testing facility said his T levels were so high it was beyond the range of their tests, and he got a fucking title shot. If he pisses hot again, fuck all will happen to him, he'll serve out his suspension then get booked on another brazilian card where he'll be safe.

Been on a bit of a tear lately with the writing, but here are what I think are the highlights.

Jon Jones has just entered rehab after testing positive for Cocaine.

And no punishment.
If it was marijuana, it would be fire and brimstone. Such bullshit.

 

[Punisher Bass]

So Anderson Silva gets popped for two different steroids, and Diaz gets busted for weed for a third time. This has been a good night.

 

[Redliner]

*sigh*

I am considering giving up on this "sport".
So much bullshit.

 

[Punisher Bass]

And Silva has failed another drug test, though we don't know what for yet.

 

[Redliner]

Really?
Not surprised.

unrelated: Are we keeping the thread name just out of stubborness? :lol:

 

[Punisher Bass]

Oh yeah, Lombard got caught a few days ago as well. We only just found out about because according to the NSAC, "no one asked". I'm glad that more cheaters are being caught, but why must we find out about them in the dumbest ways possible?

 

[Redliner]

And after the fights take place? Oh, right, MONEY.

 

[Punisher Bass]

So Silva failed his pre fight tests near the beginning of the month, passed another set of tests before the fight, then failed his post fight tests. The post fight failure was one of the steroids he already had been caught with, and two other drugs that I can't remember the name of.

I wonder how the Brazilian fans and media are going to cope with that news.
