Yeah, but the UFC allows testosterone levels far above normal. If you allow everyone to have the SAME testosterone level, it is like every light heavy weight wanting an 84 inch reach just as Jon Jones does. The whole idea is to compete with what nature gave you, not create a bunch of clones with identical attributes.
ufc doesn't have a say in it. it's up to the commission to license and test a fighter.
hormones are fluid things.. they change for a variety of reasons. if your test is low be it from cancer or be it from steroids or be it from old age, and your skills are still adequate and your 'image/name' can still sell tickets, why then wouldn't you use test to be 'normal'?
I'm against drug testing in all forms. I don't care if it's steroids, speed, painkillers, benzo's or booze.. or weed. you're making $50k to fight not based on your skills, because we ALLLLL fucking know that the most skilled fighters don't sell the most tickets, but for your ability to entertain and sell tickets.
Oh? you're a 32nd Deg Blackbelt in BJJ, Hapkido, Tae Kwon Do, and whatever else... and you're a 6 time PanAm champ... AND you're a 11 time Abu Dhabi Combat Club champ?... ohhhh kay.. but you're dull as shit and can't speak English and your interviews suck, so we'll pay you $14k to fight.
Oh... and this guy is a high school wrestling champ... and he's a big, tattooed cocky loudmouth... AND he used to be a pro-wrestler... BUT, he's never fought in a legit full contact fight? eh... so what... we'll pay you $100k to headline a card. sound fair? k.
