Chael honesty:
1. Talks shit on Lance Armstrong for using PEDs, including EPO.
2. Needed EPO to get his wife pregnant.
3. Does not dispute that he used EPO, after he gets caught unambiguously and undeniably.

"Sonnen accepts responsibility for test failure"
Pretty hard not to accept responsibility with the evidence of two failed tests.
lol well you could always take the Cyborg and Wanderlei approach to failing drug tests. Hire a lawyer or claim your doctor prescribed it to you who has now vanished into thin air and you can't remember his name.
If you're not cheating, you're not trying.
FETT_the geek - He fights it and says it was an accident - The UG gets all up in a tizzy.And where does he actually accept responsibility.

44 Magnum - LOL... only Chael is masterful enough to come out of this and somehow save face.
No defense for Chael. But it says a lot more about a person who comes forward and admits guilt than flees from the drug test then hires a lawyer to give out some bullshit excuse. I like Wanderlei, but they need to make the same example out of him that they made of Chael. When you flee from a drug test they have to assume you are on every banned substance on the list.

how is admitting guilt after you get caught 'saving face'?

I think that Uriah Faber is the only one to have acknowledged the reality of Chael's situation so far.
Giventofly99 - Consider this...a lot of Doctors said the only way these guys would need TRT is if they effed up their endocrine systems with past steroid abuse. That means Rampage, Hendo, Marquardt, Forrest, Sonnen, Belfort, Mir all used. Thats not counting everyone who didnt take TRT (but likely took something else)
That's a lot of hall of famers whose legacies would be/will be ruined. How all this plays out is going to have much bigger implications than just Sonnen...This will be akin to the baseball scandal years ago and likely leave the sport forever tainted...I think this is just the beginning and it only gets worse from here...
Sir Real - Does Sonnen and his fanship accept he would not have lasted a round with Anderson?
If he's on juice... and Wanderlei is on juice... why not let these 2 gear heads fight each other? No one would really be cheating here.

When did he come forward?
When did he admit he was cheating?
I guess it depends on your definition. If he is taking responsibility for the failed drug tests, that is saying (to me) that he is not claiming it was from a mysterious doctor that no one can locate or that someone in your camp gave it to you and you didn't know what it was.
FETT_the geek - He fights it and says it was an accident - The UG gets all up in a tizzy.LOL, I like Chael, but he clearly is an opportunist. Had he not been caught he wouldn't have come clean.
