I can't remember a single year in the UFC that so many champions have lost their belt.....

Does anyone one else think it's too much of a coincidence that this is the same year they brought in the extensive drug testing policy?

That's a pretty bold statement. To answer your question: Yes, it is a coincidence. There is no proof or fact that any of the previous champs were on any type of illegal substance.

I think it's completely unfair to the athletes, sport and new fans to make assumptions without any proof to back up the claim.

The only thing that should be being said is that the champions who lost fought skilled opponents who were better that night.

It's definitely a coincidence, but the fact that as far-fetched of a claim as that sounds, it still being possible is the problem.

If Anderson Silva can test positive, anyone can. That's the way I'm looking at it.

Sorry I didn't mean that to come out as such a bold statement.... I'd got back from an evening of drinking was still hyped from the ppv & have a horrible, horrible habit of posting stupid **** when i'm drunk... i didn't mean it to look like i was saying every guy who has lost their belt this year was juicing that's not the case, i do 

have doubts about certain guys but at the end of the day I don't know any of these fighters 
personally so it is a bit ****** for me to start throwin accusations out based on assumptions.
Thought it would make an interesting topic of convo but looking back with sober eyes it kinda looks like im fighter bashing... Alcohol & forums is a excellent way to make yourself look like a ****, maybe one day I'll learn
