Damn, you can really see the difference roids make when they put a picture of someone thats clean like GSP or Carwin up against a body builder.

Branch Warren looks like a piece of crispy bacon I ate once. Sizzling right off the griddle!

speaking of roids…Belcher just accused Akiyama of being a roid head! Hope Akiyama beats that Johnny Cash tatoo off of this klowns body!

There are people that are on roids that do look like GSP and Carwin they just don’t eat 10,000 calories a day and seat around all day taking naps after an hour workout. Alves already got caught once! He didn’t come close to looking like a bodybuilder becuase he is not one, but people still do them who don’t look like monsters. Take away roids from bodybuilding and it’s a complete joke…Bodybuilders who stop taking them and then compete in natural shows look like the average fitness person. I find it a little weird that GSP and Carwin are both at a sporting event the promotes roids….does anyone else?

Alves was caught using diuretics to “cut wieght”. Not exactly solid evidence he used roids. I hate how people accuse fighters of using roids just to make them selves feel better about being out of shape. I have put on 60 lbs of muscle in 8 years without the use of any suppliments. Its called hard work and eating right.

My bad about Alves but my main focal point was you don’t have to be on roids to look like a bodybuilder….people do look like GSP and are on roids = meaning ripped and fit looking….not that he is on them…he may be but I never that..also I have a Masters in Kinesiology/Exercise and own a fitness company, so training people is my profession. So I’m not out of shape by anymeans, I’m living proof hard work pays off….

im pretty built and cut for a natural 6’2, 208 lb man… Problem is that there is NO test for HGH, so until one is developed, its always going to be a possibility that our fav. fighters are juicing.

agreed 100%

by Robert(1) on Mar 20, 2009 12:27 PM EDT up reply actions

They havent developed an hgh test yet…correct?

by john on Mar 20, 2009 12:28 PM EDT up reply actions

Nope..not that I know of

by Robert(1) on Mar 20, 2009 1:46 PM EDT up reply actions

didnt think so..until that changes, eVERYONE is a suspect, thats why I chose not to speculate on certain fighters, because in reality we can acuse all athletes until hgh can be detected

by john on Mar 20, 2009 5:19 PM EDT up reply actions

I believe HGH can be detected through blood analysis, but not through urine tests, which is what the UFC imposes.

by Jeremyjackson on Mar 20, 2009 5:26 PM EDT up reply actions

Diuretics have also been known to be taken by athletes to mask the presents of roids in your system

by hank on Mar 20, 2009 12:53 PM EDT up reply actions

i must say i think it’s the most retarded shit to think st. pierre is a roider. he is in phenomenal shape, but i wonder, how many people that call him a roider have ever been around sports? it is a fact that some people are blessed with amazing genetics coupled with relentless training and there you go. it’s not even close to the realm of roids to see people that are in sports or serious training have amazing physiques.

in any case, georges and thiago will have a chance to ‘rub elbows’.

by Phil Baloni on Mar 20, 2009 10:15 AM EDT reply actions

I dont think he does roids, but until a test is developed to detect HGH use, it is always a possibility.

It’s a disease that never gets addressed…it’s a bizzaro form of Dyslexia for men…they never think they’re big enough….miss a meal and they freak out! Sick how people think it’s a sport…

just like little man syndrome. alot of short guys work out to make their bodies huge not caring how fucked if makes them look

by Jared on Mar 20, 2009 1:12 PM EDT up reply actions

by Jared on Mar 20, 2009 10:51 AM EDT reply actions

I never understood how body builders ever thought that they looked good. iMO the perfect body is someone like Alves…why would anyone want to be bigger than him?
