Sonnen test positive for gear
« on: September 19, 2010, 08:03:24 AM »
Just read he tested positive for PED's following his Silva match. It's ashame his performance will now be tarnished. He picked up a lot of fans for that fight, now probably just lost all of them over this.

I just hope his little "tell it like it is" campaign doesn't end now and he owns it ..

  - REPORT: CHAEL SONNEN FAILS DRUG TEST UFC 117
Sunday, September 19, 2010 - by MMAWeekly.com Staff

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


 
It appears Chael Sonnen’s immediate rematch with UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva is soon to be off the table. Sonnen reportedly has failed his post-fight drug screening from his fight with Silva at UFC 117 in Oakland, Calif., according to a report from Greg Savage of Sherdog.com.

The report states that George Dodd, the California State Athletic Commission’s Executive Officer, told Sherdog.com Saturday night after the Shane Mosley vs. Sergio Mora boxing match that, “(Sonnen) received his notice yesterday,” regarding the positive test result.

Dodd had indicated on Friday that all UFC 117 fighters had passed the testing for drugs of abuse (such as marijuana, cocaine, and the like), indicating the Sonnen likely tested positive for a performance enhancing substance.

A suspension for performance enhancing substances in California typically draws a one-year duration. If Sonnen has tested positive, and receives such a suspension, it would obviously derail plans for the rematch, which was penciled in for the UFC’s annual Super Bowl weekend event.

MMAWeekly.com had not received independent verification of the report at the time of publication.

I'm not saying shit until the Athletic Commission can say what the guy was taking, testing positive for PED can be very vague and I'm dissappointed they would go to the media with this not knowing what the guy was taking.

PEDs cover a wide range of drugs, not just 'roids.  Ibuprofen, EPO, hgh, etc.  I'm interested to hear about what he was taking.

I have a friend that had 3 weightlifting medals taken away at the Commonwealth Games b/c he took a herbal supplement that contained ephedrine, but the manufacturer did not have it listed on the bottle.

The most recent detail is that he tested positive for a "natural steroid", whatever that means.  Probably the same shit Laim Norton is on.

In any case, I hope this is true.  I have no interest in seeing a rematch.

How stupid are you ::)

Just because you're on gear, doesn't mean that you're going to look jacked.  Look at Royce Gracie.  He's tested positive and he too is a 170lbs pencil neck.

Steroids help these guys train like maniacs without burning out.  They usually get off in enough time for the gear to clear their system.  And, besides steroids, there is a slew of other PEDs that are being used.

They're all on GH, insulin, IGF, EPO and some other ped's most of them if not all use steroids like EQ, Halotestin, Stenox, Anadrol, Primo, Anavar

most of them are smart enough to take the right masking agents or stop close enough to the fight where the traces and metabolite's are out of their system..others apparently not so bright..

I am huge fan of Sonen, and I am positive I can help him beat suspension...with some expertize in the field of PED and testing.
