Yes. It was a big upset that professional bodybuilders used steroids. Luckily there's no more of that!

Why retire when you're getting paid $400,000+ a fight to go out there and fight other washed up fighters? Great business move that would be! ::)

No celebration just "Notation"
You gotta admit, this club is rather lengthy and growing but by no means "Special"
Should every who used turn Green, we would not be very surprised, right Baloney and Onlyme :-*

Shawn....can you explain how EVERYONE else in that ASC lineup did not test positive?!  ???

Others have Failed as well:


TONYA KNIGHT
STRIPPED OF 1989 MS. INTERNATIONAL TITLE

During periods when the IFBB has tested for performance-enhancing drugs, numerous competitors have failed. Shawn Ray had to forfeit his 1990 Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic title when he was one of four whose drug test came back positive for steroids. Nasser El Sonbaty failed a diuretic test at the 1996 Mr. Olympia and lost his third-place finish. Jay Cutler was informed he had failed a diuretic test after his second-place finish in the 2001 Mr. O, but that result was thrown out when it was revealed the testing didn't follow correct procedure. :o

Who cares, they should just stop drug testing and we'd see some crazy fights.

I had the impression....that it was found not to follow correct procedures on PURPOSE.

Especially with golden boy Jay Cutlet was found testing positive.

Now...nobody admits it & most will sweep it under the rug like it was forgotten.

I figured Jay threatened some type of lawsuit on them, somehow saying/proving that since everyone else did the exact same protocol that he did, why should it just be his test that are found positive? So, instead of bringing more attention-in a light that they wish to shine elsewhere- they threw the results out.

I think they brought up the test result because Jay was making a big fuss about being ahead on the cards going into the night show, so they pulled the failed test card to shut him up.

If don't, somebody will beat him like Ken Shamrock smash his face couple years ago.

Did Royce really feel he had to use roids for his fight against Saku?

Apparently.

Hope he is happy now, not that his win was very decisive. The whole fight was very disappointing.

Saku should have won that fight with Royce in either case.  He knocked him down in the first, (10-9), got the only consequential strikes in the second (successive knees, 10-9), and took Royce's back twice in the third, not to mention passed his guard. 

What is really shocking is seeing Renzo call Royce, Hoids Disgracie. 

Royce struggled with Tokoro, and should have lost that fight, previously.
