Obviously since we found out that TRT was exemptable with proper disclosure and doctor prescription it begs the question of "how long has this been going on before Chael Sonnen?".
Fast forward to now with fighters like Marquardt, Rampage, Duffee, Dan Henderson and even the 'Reem going as far as to admit they are on the TRT treatments like it's an icepack you use after a fight. So is TRT the new Tylenol of MMA? Or are these men and women truly in need of performance enhancing substances to reclaim their "normality" of fitness? You be the judge!!!

Overeem wasn't on TRT, he claimed that he was given 1 injection from the shady Texas comission doctor and received two extra vials to be injected later. It was a mix of some vitamins and test to help heal his rib injury.

If Reem's story is true, althought my gut says its not, he'd better expose this shady Texas doc before he concots something lethal for someone else.

I've said it once and I'll say it again, if you don't need TRT to live your everyday normal life, you don't need TRT to fight.

I think it's ridiculous that people accuse fighters of roiding and pretend like they know what they are talking about... I'm going into a microbiology major and just understand the basics of how hormones affect the body.

TRT is the gateway to allowing Steroid use completely.

Seems like Dana's wink in dsbv's AV is directed at Floyd Mayweather. How, as an athlete are you just 100% unaware of TRT? C'mon, Floyd, if you're going to lie, make it believable, bro.
