Nevada bans TRT...Belfort drops out of fight

PEDs an issue in UFC....I am SHOCKED....SHOCKED I say!

Machida will fight Weidmann

No surprise there. I think it's a step in the right direction.

This isn't just an MMA issue though. Mark my words, you're going to start to see more boxing matches happening in Atlantic City.

There's always another drug, another way, another loophole.

A serious move in the right direction, hope it sticks. I can see plenty of people complaining about lost fights and money.

I can see the light at the end of the tunnel now though. Moving in the right direction and making a statement everyone can see and understand.

For sure. To be honest, if you're a fan, PED's are great: they allow your favorite fighters to not only perform better, but to have a longer fight career by replacing the testosterone the human body loses naturally with age.

But if you care about the safety and integrity of sport, for sure this is a great step.

There will always be cheating, but outlawing TRT makes it a bit harder for them.
