She claims her doctor gave her something because she was still "sick" from her weight cut 3 months earlier lol even though she constantly posts videos of herself beasting in the gym and training Muay Thai in Thailand, but you know, she's "sick". She also refuses to tell anybody what her doctor gave her to help her with being "sick".

The funny thing is fighters can apply for a TUE right on USADA's website, that's why I find it funny when fighters claim ignorance and say "my doctor my doctor".

LMAO Cyborg tested positive for Spironolactone which is used as a masking agent and diuretic. The fact that Cyborg is making statements with a straight face saying that her Doctor gave her something that will extremely dehydrate you as treatment for extreme dehydration makes her look like the dumbest person in MMA drug test failure history.

I'm gonna go ahead and say she was using it for it's masking purposes.

AKA's gonna be an issue for the new owners. DC, Cain, Rockhold, Khabib. them dudes will always be champs/top contenders for the next 3 or 4 years assuming they stay uninjured. de Randamie be getting hurt too but i dont know if its from over seas or from AKA. her injurys will have a bigger impact now that she will probably for the next 3 or 4 years be a champ/contender.

thats crazy. he'd say stupid shit here and there but he's better than Stann.
lol I've made a lot of people on Sherdog mad when I talk about Stann being the worst commentator the UFC has.

Gonna be weird never hearing Goldberg again, Dana White said they got somebody huge coming in July to replace him. Probably gonna be Anik with Rogan until the new guy comes.

Wish they would do a double color team with Cruz and Rogan, Cruz is probably the best fighter commentator they have, all of their play by play guys are pretty bad except for that British guy that does the overseas shows with Dan Hardy, he's pretty good.

I suspect Mario Lopez is going to replace Goldie. They showed one of his tweets hyping 207 and he's also rep'd by WME.

Dana says they'll be pushing more FOX fights in 2017 in lieu of PPVs and it would make sense getting someone like AC Slater who is well known to the mainstream.
