MMA Steroid Busts: The Definitive Timeline ? Or are most of the fighters who have tested positive simply the victims of inept athletic commissions, shady nutritional supplements, and tainted goat meat?

MISSOURI STATE GENEALOGICAL ASSOCIATION JOURNAL, TABLES OF CONTENTS. Volume IV, Winter 1984, Number 1 (IV:1) (No back copies for sale.) TITLE PAGE. Punishment: A six- month suspension from the NSAC and the loss of his UFC heavyweight title. Barnett fought the steroid charge, and didn. I am innocent, and I should be fighting right now.”Repeat offender: Barnett actually tested positive once before, for two different anabolic steroids, following his submission via strikes victory over Bobby Hoffman at UFC 3. November 2. 00. 1. Josh was let off with a warning (which went unheeded, apparently) and the incident was never officially reported . Sylvia voluntarily vacated his heavyweight title following his positive steroid test. Insurance coverage from State Farm can help you protect the people and things you value most.

Career: 173 HR.303 BA, 1146 RBI, 1B, 3xAllStar, 4xGG, Cubs/Diamondbacks 1988-2003, b:L/t:L, 1x 2B Leader, born in USA 1964, Amazing. Alma Ackerman : Wellsburg 1933 (2nd); 1934 (1st) Bruce Adkins : Audubon 1969; 1974; 1975; 1977 : John Agans : Mystic 1933 (4th) Gerald Agard : West Bend 1937; 1938 (1st). In his own words: . I decided to try some things and maybe change my physique a little bit and get in better shape. But whatever I used, it came back positive. I did it so long ago and I was way off it before I fought Mc. Gee. I think they found it in my fat cells. I guess it stays in there for a while, huh? I thought that what I was using, it was going to be out by the time I fought Mc. Gee. I fought Gan and apparently it wasn. Caught: 8/1. 6/0. TKO loss to Ken Shamrock at UFC 4. Tested positive for: Stanozolol. Punishment: $5,0. NSAC. In his own words: . It was just something. However, my experiences whether negative or positive have given me greater insight into the crutches of life’s downfalls and my decisions today come from experiences. I will say that my choices and decision- making ability are educated decisions and made from a position of informed consent, as opposed to blind guidance. I can be honest about my past and can look a fighter in the eye and tell him/her with great confidence that use of illicit substances is not worth the future health issues it creates nor is it worth the risk they are taking against their license. I’d been taking some over- the- counter supplements at a Max Muscle store. It was something like what Mark Mc. Gwire took, androstenedione. I never thought of that stuff being tested. It was a stupid mistake. People are going to believe what they want to believe, but I’ve been clean in my last three fights . You have to watch out for things. We don’t always know what not to take. That’s the real gray area. That’s my story.”KIMO LEOPOLDO (Pt. Caught: 7/2. 0/0. Bas Rutten at WFA: King of the Streets. Tested positive for: Stanozolol. Punishment: Leopoldo was pulled from the match with Rutten, but received no official punishment. Kimo took a fight in London two months after the WFA incident (a submission loss against Dave Legeno), and fought in Hawaii just one week after that, losing to Wes Sims by TKO. In the words of Bas Rutten: . For him to do this shit after all the promotion he did, all the shit he talked about me . I had a knee surgery that I had approximately a year ago, so my doctor prescribed me a few things to help me out in my recovery, and this was taken before I even had a clue about this fight with Bas. I was completely done taking it when I found out about this fight. I knew I was going to get tested, after my previous thing with the Nevada State Athletic Commission. I know no matter what now every fight is going to be like that. Now, knowing this and I. I had no idea that a supplement bought over the counter at a vitamin store would contain a substance that is illegal in the state of Nevada. Caught: 1. 1/3/0. Forrest Griffin at UFC 6. Tested positive for: Boldenone. Punishment: $5,0. NSAC. In his own words: . My right elbow had been bad for a while, and I hurt it bad getting ready for Rashad . Right after that fight, I thought I’d have some time off to do some therapy, rehab and heal. And five days later, I get a call to fight Forrest in a month and a half. I was looking for something to speed up the healing. I just was worried I was not going to be able to fight, and they needed me. This wasn’t an undercard fight; it was the main event. Pulling out was not an option.”KIT COPECaught: 1/2. Rob Mc. Cullough at WEC 2. Tested positive for: Boldenone. Punishment: $1,1. NSAC. In his own words: . After that the doctor a shot a substance called Boldenone and that is an anabolic substance. It was definitely not for performance. Below 5 it is not findable. Which proves it was very old. So every bit of common sense shows I was not taking it for a performance enhancer.! USA. Tested positive for: Unspecified anabolic steroids. USA. Tested positive for: Nandrolone. Punishment: $2,5. CSAC. Look at my last fight. For accusing me of using drugs. Baroni. Tested positive for: Boldenone and Stanozolol. Punishment: $2,5. CSAC, reduced from one year after an appeal; follow- up tests with Baroni’s urine sample came back negative for the drugs. In his own words: . Being big and strong has never been something I needed help with. I know they say polygraphs aren. I have absolutely nothing to hide. I. The problem is that a lot of people don. I offer only an explanation and not an excuse. I made a decision during a difficult time in my training for the fight that I regret. About 8 weeks out from the fight, I badly injured my ankle during a training session. For the following week I had rested it, rehabbed it and tried to work around the injury. It was obvious that I could not train as required. I contacted the UFC and explained my injury and how I could not possibly train to the level I thought I would need in order to be properly prepared for my fight. I asked the UFC if we could push the fight out to the following UFC with the chance that it could happen. They explained that they could not do that and that the card had been set and it isn’t as easy as just moving around a fight. I totally understood their position. They asked me to keep them informed should I not be able to fight. Fighting is literally how I put food on my wife and child’s table and how I pay my bills. As a fighter though, even at this level, I live a simple life and I literally live from fight to fight. Not getting a paycheck for another few months and losing my chance to fight Sean for the title was overpowering. Fighting is the life I chose and I love it. I made the shortsighted choice to hopefully accelerate the healing process and allow me to keep training. Under the pressure of literally not being able to pay next month’s bills I made a choice. I had to fight and did whatever I could to do so. I hope my fans, students, the UFC and the public accept my sincere apology. Whatever punishment is dictated by the California Athletic Commission, I will understand. I would like to get through this very difficult time and the times ahead and get back to fighting. All the best to my fans and much thanks to my family and friends that continue to support me during these times.”ANTHONY TORRESCaught: 1. TKO loss to Jess Liaudin at UFC 7. Tested positive for: Boldenone. Torres was the first fighter to be caught by a UFC- administered steroid test. Punishment: Torres was released from his UFC contract. Since there was no athletic commission that had jurisdiction where the fight took place (London, England), he wasn. Torres competed four months later in his native Hawaii, losing a decision to Michael Brightmon, and hasn. This was at a time that I thought I was done fighting and was suffering from a chronic joint inflammation of my hip. I did not want to miss the opportunity of fighting for a great promoter like Strikeforce. I still tested positive and for that I would like to apologize to Strikeforce, Bodog Fight, and the sport of MMA in general. He returned to action this past March, scoring a submission win over Marcus Hicks at a King of the Cage event in Edmonton. ADAM SMITHCaught: 1. Dewey Cooper at Strikeforce. Smith earned just $5. And the cherry on the failure cake: . Gavin. Tested positive for: 4- Hydroxytestosterone. Punishment: $2,5. CSAC. In his own words: . I went to the local store, and anybody can pick this stuff up. You need to know what you. Even if you go to GNC or Wal- Mart, there. I honestly think that taking steroids is counter- productive for MMA, they do not improve how you punch or how good you are at subs. They actually hurt your cardio which is the biggest factor in MMA. That being said, I made the decision to take steroids, even though I believe that in my circumstance they should be allowed (for healing injuries). It showed me that I didn. I had fought unprepared and unhealthy many times in my career. The year break showed me that there will be other fights. It kinda made me grow up a little as a fighter. Each sample came back clean for banned substances, but Damm. One, this is kind of clear, and two, it. I took the usual supplements . If I had taken it, I would be very aggressive in the fight, and those who saw it realize that I was not aggressive. And this type of anabolic steroid is to get fat, to gain weight, and is used on animals. I had seminars and I had only eaten in restaurants specializing in barbecued meat, and they use this in cattle and goats there and they may have used it in any animal that I ate. The following January, Silva thumbed his abnormally large nose at the suspension and took a fight in Japan, defeating Yoshihiro . I dont agree and never have agreed with the use of this kind of product in order to win, for this is cheating. I will go to the full extent of my power and the law to prove my innocence in this matter. He needs to be able to keep fighting to make a living. During my time off from fighting, I want to speak to kids about the dangers of using performance- enhancing agents and let them know it just doesn. Of course, this is a hard hit for me monetarily, but more so this is embarrassing for me and for all my fans. In May, Sidelnikov competed at an M- 1 Challenge event in Russia (where the CSAC suspension wasn. James Chang, DOPhiladelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine.
