Controversial disgraced former steroid distributor turned anti-doping crusader Victor Conte made veiled remarks - with no cause - about famed MMA conditioning and nutritionist Mike Dolce.
"Both of the @ufc PED poster boys Belfort & Sonnen work w/ @thedolcediet Mike Dolce?" tweeted Conte. "Maybe an MMA scribe could get an interview? @danawhite."
Dolce appeared recently on The MMA Hour, and slammed Conte.
"He's been proven to be a criminal, proven to be a liar, he's proven to be a cheater," said Dolce as transcribed by Dave Doyle for MMAFighting.
"Everybody who knows me knows exactly what I do. He knows my protocol, he knows the way that I live my lifestyle. Unfortunately, that individual, he's just looking for some sort of relevancy. ... Because I have relationships with Chael and with Vitor, now that's where this interview is trying to make some sort of connection. But the connection is so thin it's ridiculous.
"He does the sport and any sport and extreme disservice. What he's done, he's ruined athletes careers as a part of his way to make money for himself. That's what he does. He tries to ruin people's careers. It's unfortunate. I try to help people."
It is an unfortunate fact of public life that some percentage of the population is going to believe any accusation. For example, 17% of registered voters think that President Obama is a Muslim. PEDs are entirely contrary to everything that Dolce has dedicated his life to, and Conte owes him an apology.
Conte is shady as fuck. Even when he seems to be telling the truth you have to question it 
"PEDs are entirely contrary to everything that Dolce has dedicated his life to, and Conte owes him an apology."
You should edit your article/blog post/whatever and remove that line. It is stupid.
Conte knows what the deal is. Dolce juices. Dolce's clients juice. To believe otherwise is naive.
"He's been proven to be a criminal, proven to be a liar, he's proven to be a cheater,"
The worst part of this whole situation? ...You can now apply all this to Chael. 
Both of these guys seem pretty god damn slimy
Victor's a piece of shit and gives Conte's a bad name.
VitorpeepeetasteStrongTRT - Both of these guys seem pretty god damn slimy
I don't think Dolce is slimy.
Seems like a cool guy that is a proven expert in his field.
I'd love to work with him

This. How is Dolce slimmy? Because he has a proven product and sells books?
Conte sady yes, Dolce great at what he does, yes but he gives bad vibes imo and sometimes Dolces results seem to good to be true...we will never know.
But as long as he is not caught for anything illegal he gets the benefit of the doubt and i respect his work.
As a coach/trainer you kind of need to know what goes into your fighter.
Where there is smoke, there is fire.
Conte has nothing to gain and would know a thing or two of what he speaks.
If a former drug addict points out that someone else may have problems are we to discount their words because of their addiction?
I'd say a drug user would spot another drug user a bit more easily.
In that respect I cannot discount Conte.
Although, I've no proof against Dolce.
But Conte knows what he speaks and Dolce was too quick to point the finger at Conte's past as a way to discredit him.

re: "we will never know"
If the Dolce "protocol/diet/regimen" involves anything other than food we will ABSOLUTELY know eventually. That shit will come out. Maybe not tomorrow or in a year, but eventually, if Dolce is doing the dirt, it will come out.
Besides, it isn't as though athletes who take PEDs don't also need to eat well and work hard. PEDs aren't magic.
So you're trying to tell me Obama isn't a Muslim?

It's probably just me but he comes across that way. I'm probably wrong and he is probably legit.

Wtf are you on about?? Go onto dolce's twitter account you will see daily tweets n pics of people who have had positive results on the dolce diet. Big transformations. Boom
Has anyone else pointed out that this only highlights a couple of fighters he works with that have issues with PED's.
What about the scores of clean athletes he advises including Olympians and current UFC champions....

Good point. But all we really have is two people dirt slinging. Dolce may be guilty as Conte says, or he may be totally clean and just using the easy route to shut the other guy up.
Hard to tell.
I like Mike Dolce a lot and I think he knows what he's talking about. But it is a bad look when he's marketing his product by saying "look at my athletes," and 2 of his 3 main guys have failed 5 drug tests for crazy testosterone levels and banned substances. And the other guy pulled out of advanced testing when he had the opportunity to participate in it.
Could be worse; he could be a Bro Scientist like Dolce...
