USADA has proven to be a joke. With all the "tainted" suppliments, and now if Brock and Jones are let back with a slap on the wrist while Machida and Lawlor got butt****ed.

The only "Icon" that actually matters.



I would, no exaggeration, shed tears of joy if we got a prime Big Nog w/ Vale Tudo shorts.

BJ Penn with his classic shorts

Yh prime Big Nog would be awesome. But he has to actually look like his prime version though like in that pic. I don't just want old Big Nog with some vale tudo shorts thrown on him. Like we got Wand and Cro Cop, but the only thing prime about them was their stats. They look nothing like their prime versions. Thats the old them already past their prime.

Technically by the time Brock gets back in the cage, he will have served more time suspended than Machida did. It was both their first offense.

Let me rephrase: the USADA/UFC collaboration has been a joke. In retrospect Machida's suspension might have done him some good, BUT Brock popped in competition, has the fight turned to a NC (with back-to-back losses behind it). "retires" from MMA with a smile and a wink. then comes back and will get a shot at the title. I'm sorry, what?? Wanna tell Mark Hunt with a straight face that the USADA/UFC collab is working?

Now we get Jones popping for the 2nd time in his career, now for effing Turinabol. And if they actually get that Gustaffson fight or whatever they working on? I'm so done...

Now, I came into MMA later than most here. You guys might look back at the early days with fond memories. I look at it like the savage days. I have no interest in this WWF bull WME is shoveling. I came in when it was a sport, and it's looking less like a sport every day that passes.

Off topic. I'll shut up now.

Re: Can we please have more Icon fighters?

Machida is a bad example. Dude never popped. He admitted to taking a substance that he thought may have been tainted but wasn’t.

The sport is overall better because of USADA, but it’s not quite perfect. Tbh...Jon and Brock and possibly Romero are the guys who I think are gaming the system. Although Costa is a tainted supplement away from ruining a main event. Costa vs Romero was great match making. Only one user will go up the rankings and if one pops the other can’t really complain

Rashad CAN be used competitively on ranked other good players.
I've gone on win streaks with him and Hendo.
I really enjoyed the video of you going on the streak with Rashad.
He’s one of my favorite fighters since he came on the scene during a really pivotal time in MMA’s growth as a sport. He is a legend for sure and deserves
icon status along with BJ Penn, Hughes, Shogun, and all of the others already
Mentioned.
