HEy Jesse

I’m not going to stick around to hear it live…. but in the distant past whenever I wanted to hear what was said the next day I’ve had to search on the Radio site to hear it….. will there be a quick link from this to that…. for those of us who will come late?

I’m all over this topic and want to the whole story…. and R3b3L…. I don’t think confidentialty went out the window… this is what the SACC has to say… not Nates Doctor

I really really tried to listen to things... on Pro MMA Radio - http://prommaradio.com/

but I think we got the whole story up front by Nate n Dana… he just fucked up in a VERY difficult process of getting cleared by TRT…. sounds like NJSAC counsel did a good job on this testing

Jesse H. it says on Pro MMA Radio u opened with “10 things u need to know about UFC 132” wrapup? but yet I heard no introduction of u?…. did I get up to take a piss at that moment n missed the intro with them mentioning yr name?

Nick Lembo sounds like a old tired/ bored guy that had to go into the bedroom during his home 4th of July party…. don’t really give a fuck kinda guy that is trying to address this Larry Pepe Radio personality guy…. (I like Larry)… but there were no angles to go with here…. THIS NJSAC is on the UP n UP… they did everything correctly…. as per Nate but not his doctor

This is really Nate Marquardt being 1 of the 1st guys to go up front and publicly through this tedious process (rightly so) with a BAD DOCTOR… n Dana getting pissed off… look Dana not every fighter gets involved in the process of what their doctors tells them.. bad shit happens… Marquardt was trying to be fortcoming n fucked up because he got fucked by his doctor…. some guys like to fight n train… n leave everything else up to the hired guys around them.

TRT, TUE, HRE, PEDS WTF?

"This is Bob. Bob had bitch tits."

by THORAZINE on Jul 5, 2011 4:35 AM EDT reply actions  

my only concern here

is whether or not Nate honestly needed to be on anything in the first place. If he was trying to gain an edge with enhancements, well, bad shit could happen to your career if you’re caught. Nate seems like a good guy, but that doesn’t excuse using illegal TFTs CRTs, KGBs, RFGs, and RPGs.

apparently Nate is cleared to be on TRT...

… Nate was up front n went through all legal channels at this specific point in time… the question really comes is….. Is it legal to be way high on TRT during training as long as yr in normal ranges during the week of the fight… the issue is policing it.

Yeah… it’s questionable if Nate should be cleared with his past history of steroids but they did clear him… should he be cleared? … I dont know… should he be kicked out ot the UFC forever?…. I don’t think so.

sounds like it should be stated that any commission doing test should be regulated that you cant be high on your Tes levels a week ahead of time instead of the day before up unitl weighins…

Last time Nate tested with Marquardt vs Miller Nate did things as required….

Nate is not as stupid as he's trying to be right now.....

I believe Nate is an intellient guy. That said, like when he did get this issue cleared in NJ, what did he do differently this time to get busted? The fact his Dr put him on a more “aggressive” treatment. If that’s the case, Nate should of had the brains to say to the UFC/Commision DR’s, is it ok for me to do this? Which he could of done well before the fight. I think is playing the “I didn’t know” or “my Dr said it was ok” card. Just because you have a DR before your name does not mean you are always right. How many Dr’s have we seen lately get busted for PEDs, prescription pills, etc. In Nate’s case, ignorance does not excuse guilt. Taking advice from 1 Dr when you are a pro athlete just doesn’t make any sense. AND he’s at Greg Jackson’s gym which I’m sure have several Dr’s. AND he could of easily asked Dana, other DR’s, etc. to see if this was ok. Almost all pro athletes, no matter the sport, get 2nd n 3rd opinions on anything health related. Once again, ignorance does not excuse guilt.

Didn’t Nate get busted for roids not too long ago??(that was rhetorical) Makes this story even more interesting.

the thing is these camps hire dr’s to help their fighters get shit in their system and get away with it. that’s how it works.

by RoBerto. on Jul 5, 2011 7:28 AM EDT up reply actions  

good point...

 was Nate way over on his TRT purposely to train better early in his camp?…yup guys do that…they need a monitoring/police method they were talking about later in the program of checking on fighters levels every mth….

from what I gathered (i may be wrong) Nate offered the info that he was really high on TRT per doctors recommendation, he was not tested that he was really high earlier in camp?

The problem is Nate did not say he was way over on his TRT levels several or 2 weeks earlier to dana…. otherwise Dana would’ve changed the card or went in with a gameplan… behind closed doors Nate needed to be upfront with Dana just like Sonnen was (im assuming)….Nate fucked up dana’s card n that’s why he’s pissed… Sonnen did not and went through with the fight n almost killed Anderson Silva… BUT Sonnen made one of the best fights in UFC history and didn’t ruin Uncle Dana’s card n $$$…

Dana would rather have u go through the fight way over levels then get busted at the front door… it’s less of a regard for the fighters in the ring and more for his $$$

by THORAZINE on Jul 5, 2011 6:40 AM EDT reply actions  

But Nate wasn't higher for this while camp, was he?

now, i didnt hear Lembo talking so maybe you can correct me, but the NJSAC had him off of the TRT for purposes of testing him, right up until 3 weeks before the VS fight. this would be well into his training camp (standard 8 week camp) and i dont personally see anything helping him that far into it. maybe with weight cut or whatever but i’m no expert on sports medicine.

As far as him being fired…. i think it was as simple as a mistake on Nate’s part for not putting Dana in the loop with everything so that he could’ve planned ahead and rearranged and what not. Firing is a but much and i dont agree that this is his “4th chance”. dana seems to be getting his events crossed. i would consider the NJSAC and this instance the same thing

Gotcha' WingBlade this thread is dead..

and the fact that no one replys under me since yesterday but chooses to reply above me, tells me no-one cared about how this TRT works or about this radio show… jesse doesnt even check his threads that he was on as a radio host…… I respect jesse’s work, 4th of july weekend… he can’t do everything at once… he’s got a life to live… but this is a huge policy for sports despite Maniac posters ignorance and non-response on it.

WINGBLADE… Nate was required to get off the TRT for a long period of time… AND NATE DID…..Nates doctor recommendend to get back to normal levels to get larger doses than normal’’’ Nate did….n’ went above those levels…

NOW- u can speculate what happened between NAte n’ his DOcTer’…… but it is all speculation… and that’s what Dana did. Dana Speculated…

Dana knows WHOS ON TRT….he tells his fighters what he expects….. and if it somehow fucks up his card… U R OUT OF THE UFC……….if it doesnt fuck up his card n’ $$$$ … then he’ll bring u back in….

THIS IS ABOUT DANA LAW… I’m going over to Bloody Elbow (Enema) to see what the poster have to say….
