|  Mac Danzig: 90 per cent of fighters have used PEDs
Mac Danzig: 90 per cent of fighters have used PEDs Quote:
Around 90 per cent of professional MMA fighters are using some sort of performance-enhancing substances, claims UFC lightweight Mac Danzig.
The infamously morose Danzig levelled the accusation during an appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast, although he didn’t say where he had got his figures from.
“I know a lot of these people and I train them and I train with them. I would say at least sixty per cent are on them all the time and around 85 to 90 per cent have tried them… these guys cycle the stuff and they know how long it will take to get out of their body. I’m also talking about HGH - Human Growth Hormone - which isn’t tested for right now,” he drawls.

* I am suprised these comments took so long to make it to the mma media. Danzig made these claims over a month ago on the Rogan podcast.
Does Danzig have a motive to misrepresent the numbers or is this an accurate view?

This just in: 89% of stated statistics are made up, 97% of the times.

Whenever somebody says something like this, it automatically makes me think that THEY are part of that percentage that has used PEDs...

Cheick Kongo publicly stated 50%.
Krzysztof Soszynski publicly stated 50%
Mac Danzig publicly stated 90%
Denis Hallman publicly stated 50%
Victor Conte publicly stated 50%
I would say it is safe to say a large percentage of mma fighters have abused PEDs.
Big name fighters who have been busted for PEDs:
Josh Barnett
Tim Sylvia
Kimo Leopoldo
Nate Mardquart
Vitor Belfort
Kit Cope
Stephan Bonnar
Did I mention Josh Barnett?
Royce Gracie
Phil Barnoi
Sean Sherk
Hermes Franca
Bill Mahood
Dennis Hallman
Bigfoot Silva
Edwin Dewees
Chris Leben
Ken Shamrock
Oh yeah, Josh Barnett
Chael Sonnen
James Irvin
Thiago Silva
Cyborg Santos
King Mo
Alistair Overeem
Rafael Cavalcante
Jeff Monson - Not caught but admitting to steroids
Kevin Randleman - Fake piss sample
And that is just a list of 'name' fighters who have been busted.... Gotta be some truth to the claims.
Oh and King Kong was really in that pic?
