You say you were, "asking for somebody to correct and inform me not just try and swat me down you knob."

Yet, you clearly stated Henderson, "hasn't tried to get off it."

I do not see that statement in the form of a question. Did you forget the question mark to signify it was a question instead of a statement?


The amazing thing about the internet is ... you can look up things that happened in the past! What does it matter if you did not have internet ten years ago? And where on earth do you live you did not have internet in 2002?

Anyways, you made a statement directly stating Henderson has never tried to get off TRT. I responded saying you were talking out your ass because you did not know if your statement was true or not. Simple as that.

Or do we draw the line where you--with all the vast amounts of study and consultation you've engaged on the subject--whimsically deem fit?

Or we could say draw the line at if you need medication or get over a short term injury/illness to compete maybe that's ok... but if you need injections of something that is typically considered a PED because you are physically past your prime and can't compete with out then maybe that's not ok.

So are you suggesting I have a medical degree or work as a trainer before I can have my personal input on the subject ? Ok same goes for you then how much vast study do you have in this ? what makes you more qualified to think you are right while others are wrong ?

Or maybe we draw the line and say the opinions of fans without a medical degree don't matter.

Most of the people speaking ill of this subject understand very little of what TRT is or how the commission deals with it. These people are making an emotional decision rather than an educated one.

Because you are the one trying to criticize the Athletic Commission's decision to allow fighters to compete while on TRT... not him.

Explain to me the perimeters of the testing and the science of testosterone replacement therapy. If you cannot present any knowledge on the topic, your opinion doesn't mean shit.

Would a teacher or professor give you a decent grade if you did not demonstrate an ounce of knowledge on the topic to back your insistent point that someone else's judgement is incorrect, yet yours is not?

The athletic commission can't be wrong. Thats why they ban fighters for weed in their system even if they have a perscription, but allow synthetic testesterone

I can see Jon changing his position on this topic when he is in the latter stage(s) of his career while still trying to attain those "big pay days."

Hmm... its almost like dan had permission... like he filed some kind of form with the comission..

Perhaps had nick done what he was responsible to do.....

Nick could have filed for an exemption, but he didn't. Chael was also suspended after the first Silva fight, because he hadn't applied for the exemption either. I don't see how the commission was wrong in your scenario...?
