Wow... Nationalism!!! they ruined Vitor belfort and now this??
Did Dan and Chael fail a NSAC test and not release the results? The fuck does nationalism have to do with that?
I wonder what would have happened if they'd been surprised tested right before the TRT ban.
Had they been previously caught using steroids and the poster boys for the appearance of abusing trt then I'm sure they would've been so scrutinized that the whole exemption was banned from the sport.
Poor vitor going back to the place that said no one that was busted in the past would be approved for trt use
this isnt really even news. except to show how ridiculous vitors situation is.
Vitor was on TRT when he applied, TRT is banned so he withdrew his application after failing the test that came with the application in Nevada. Im sure right now hes getting all the TRT out of his system/adjusting and he will apply later this year and fight the winner of Machida/Weidman........ unless he has any problems getting off the sauce (which is a very legit possiblilty).
This is according to a few other posters that know their shit, Im not searching for it though.
Nope. He showed up in Vegas and got randomly tested. No one knows the official results (posters), but yea he failed again. Thus, he withdrew from a title fight.

What's ridiculous about not getting licensed after failing a drug test?
Didn't Sonnen get caught? Am glad they've both been licensed NO excuses now when Vitor does apply I think it's good news all round for all mma fans
Actually I'm talking about hendo fighting two months after a fight with trt and vitor needing months to get back to normal to even begin discussing the next fight.
OTSS already said the real reason is he was popped again boss, which is spot on.
Vitor was on tear, wrecking everyone as soon as it came to the title shot things got changed maybe the ufc didn't want a TRT user to be champ because let's face it athletes caught using steroids are classed as cheats an with the ufc being mainstream on fox it wouldn't have been good for the company, basically unleash TRT Vitor on everyone BUT the champ that's how I seen it anyway

Vitor was never beating Weidman no matter how many steroids he took.
"Had they been previously caught using steroids and the poster boys for the appearance of abusing trt then I'm sure they would've been so scrutinized that the whole exemption was banned from the sport. "
What's this gibberish? They were not surprise tested between fights, and if they had, who knows what the results would have been?

It sounds like you agree with the post you're saying "nope" to.
Also, Vitor didn't withdraw, the UFC pulled him since they didn't know if/when he could get licensed.

Vitor stands a chance vs anyone at middleweight whether you like it or not

Maybe in a pigs eye. He did not "withdraw his application after failing the test that came with the application in Nevada." he failed (we believe) a random test.
Yes the UFC did pull him as he would not do what Hendo & Sonnen did ( just try to just get a license in Vegas).
