anyone read the article on sherdog about this?   http://www.sherdog.com/news/news/Overeem-Granted-Conditional-License-for-UFC-141-by-NSAC-38049


I found it interesting that overeems test took six days from out of country and lesnar who is in country and used to the policies took four days longer than required.  It amazes me that so much pressure and bias is put towards overeem who has never tested positive for anything and has only ever been suspected of things based on his build (which is no indicator whatsoever) where as lesnar who comes from a company that has rampant drug use and has been busted with things that were labelled peds (later released) and its an after thought to mention he was four days late.

There's no controversy in the NSAC putting Overeem under more scrutiny...he's a prime suspect for PED's.  You don't go from being able to make 205 to being a ripped 250 plus pounds through natural means within the time frame that he has.  Anyone that thinks he is not juicing is grasping at straws.

Personally, I consider the fight to be in jeopardy until his tests come back.  I hope he does test clean, because I want to see the fight whether he's cheating or not.
