And also retires from mma. These idiots really piss me off because imagine somebody finally defeats Anderson Silva and a couple weeks later it comes out that he was roided up thus tainting his performance turning the fight into a no contest but at the same time having us see Anderson finally lose to a cheater blah blah blah..if somebody defeats Silva it should be a fair win and not these cheating idiots. Fuck off Bonnar go retire you career fucking loser.
Yea, I'm not sure what he hoped to gain from that, my guess is that there was no way he was able to get in shape for the fight without it so he knew he would get popped and knew he was going to retire but just couldn't resist the paycheck before going out. Personally I think it was a bad move by Bonnar, he had a lot of fans going into that fight and that's a terrible way to be remembered on the way out.
Or how about he just got busted.... again. The dude is a known cheat and now it is CLEAR how he deserves to be remembered on the way out. By the way, Dave Herman failed his post fight test as well and is probably gone from the UFC.
In Some Cases, DESPERATION is @ the Core of WHY Guys Cheat...Bonnar is a Case in Point, in REED's Opinion... Bonnar ALREADY Planned a Wedding & KNEW his Career was OVER (As a Marquee Fighter, for Sure), Delving Into Commentary, etc...All of a Sudden, he's Offered a MEGA Payday vs. Anderson Silva...Bonnar Knew IMMEDIATELY he WASN'T Good Enough to Beat Silva Straight Up, so he Looked for "Help"...Hell, Bonnar Might have Even "Enhanced" his "Performance" to LESSEN the Severity of the Asswhipping he KNEW he'd Receive... REED Sorta Feels BAD for the Cat... REED:mj:
Herman was busted for pot though, still, even without a failed drug test, I think he would have been cut. His performance was embarassing
I'm with you. He was already on Dana's shit list for the grizzly bear hair in the Struve fight. I think this is his 2nd failure for pot.
does dana not like facial hair? never noticed. Herman was embarassing this time out. What makes no sense to me is Bonnar knew he had like less than 1% chance to beat Silva. If he was gonna retire, why do the roids? Why taint your last fight like that? I don't think he planned on retiring.
No, Herman looked like a werewolf against Struve, he's clearly one of those guys that has a lot of body hair, he just usually shaves before every fight. In that fight, he had his full wolf suit on, I thought it looked kind of cool but I'm sure it was a bit gross to most people. Here's a picture but he had it on back just as thick as the front. LOL. http://img.bnqt.com/CMS/mmajunkie/assets/ufc-on-fuel-tv-1/dave-herman.JPG
Personally I think he's a guy that probably just commonly juices. It's his second positive test. The previous failed test was after the 2nd Griffin fight. Not that it really matters, but I don't buy the idea that he juiced specifically because of fighting Silva. Bonnar is a big 205'er and I'd bet he is a regular user that just got popped twice.
Yeah man, I tend to agree with you. I think Bonnar has always been lacking in pure talent. He has probably done the juice since day one.
there was an article about whether or not bonnar should be inducted to the ufc hall of fame due to his epic battle vs. griffin its contribution to the sport. i'm assuming that answer is now a definite no. i wonder if he'll still get commentating gigs on espn and fox/fuel.
If I hear Bonnar tested positive for a PED, I assume it is for something to help him cut weight. The pussy penalties for PED use are ridiculous and PED use prevalence is beginning to affect my enjoyment of mma.
