UFC 153 Drug Tests: Bonnar fails for Anabolic Steroids, Herman for Marijuana

Do they have the same Dr as Overeem?? Maybe some sort of mix up.



By the way, did Overeem ever sue his Dr for loss of earnings??



Doesn't really matter for Bonner now, I suppose what it does do is rule him out from being an ambassador for the UFC...



As for Mr Herman, I thought it was a bit dodgy the way he is happy even if he loses the fight... this explains a lot.



"I lost the fight, but thanks to my newly branded range of UFC Bongs"...

what was bonnar thinking?

He was thinking Im about to get my ass kicked so why not juice it

highkick12 +1

What a shame bonnar leaves the sport with a black mark against his name.



How much of his career was he on the juice?

I think ,taking steroid was the advice he got from chael sonnen on the telephone (in ufc ultimate insider's show)

it makes sense bonnar said he was retired when he was offered the silva fight. if some one told you you had to fight the goat in four weeks after you had been sitting on the couch for a year what would you do. it really only reinforces what a complete sham the entire fight was. just pure padding for silvas record and fuel for the hype train not that he needed it

"Ouch, this needle hurts"

Silva offered to save the PPV dummy nothing to do with ''padding his record'' because nobody will look back on that, if anything it'll be the Hendo, Belfort, Okami and fights like those people look back on. Then you had the cheek to defend Bonnar in the same breath, you must be high so I won't give you a weak.

I think Bonnar knew when he pissed that he was done..hence the retirement.

Anderson 2, Roids 0

I could care less to be honest about the steroids from Bonnar he sacrificed his body for most of his life, and entertained us. Plus he is retired now. I would just let it go.

Do you see now Joe Rogan ? Mary J a PED WTF ? Dave Herman's stand up looked sluggishly stoned ! Call Joe for some better sh1t

Dana White really sucks for his stance on this btw js

Yeah, cos overeem didn't know what he was doing...

Silva really is super-human....

So David, would you say the same thing if Bonnar beat Silva? ROIDS have a HUGE impact on recovery time, training, and strength! I've seen guys put on 25lbs plus of muscle in a few months at the gym!! It is an unfair advantage and he is a cheater. Glad he is finished with MMA and glad Silva beat his cheating ass down.

Its not that its that I think more are using than are not using, and we only hear about the ones dumb enough to get caught, we all enjoyed pride, and most of us have watched a Belfort or Leben, a Sherk, a Barnett, a Nate M fight again after they got caught, and many want to see Reem again, should Royce Gracie life work mean nothing also since they tested positive. I just think its to big of a problem in all sports, and im not going to lose any sleep over it, I lose enough sleep on real world important things.

The phrase is "I COULDN'T care less"



If you COULD care less then we dont know how much you care... just saying



But i agree with the sentiment

Thanks billy im a grammar/typo machine sea.

So he really did ask Chael Sonnen for advice.

I like Bonnar, but that was a realllllllly good one, Wolfi :)

ohhhhhhh, Wolfi........ that's reallllllllly good....... ohhhhhhhhhh........

Bonnar wanted to get that win by any means necessary. Well, he did look huge, though.

What was an almost perfect ending to a career, even though a loss, going out with more respect than 9/10 fighters do with a win, has been tarnished in my eyes.

I thank him for the TUF Finale and some decent fights but in all he has lost most of my respect.



Once was bad enough but twice, especially for your retirement fight and the biggest night of your career, is inexcusable and damn right shameful.

Glad Carlson Gracie didn't see Bonnar do this, after all the times Stephan talking about being a true martial artist and coming from a background of being respectful.



Another guy trying to cheat himself through Silva gets abolished, all is right in the world.

Agreed, it's a really shitty way to end a career. It would have been even sadder if Bonnar had won, we'd have seen the greatest win-streak in UFC history ended by a cheating, roided up a-hole. What's even more damning is the fact that Bonnar has tested positive for steroids previously. All the good will he built with the fans following his recent win streak has been flushed down the toilet.

Who cares? They both should be allowed.

Just in case people get mixed up, this isn't the controversial TRT we have been seeing lately, this is straight up cheating steroids.



Also like to say cya Herman, never looked like he bothered about winning or losing, talked crap and failed for the same thing twice in roughly a year period - not worthy of being in the UFC.

Steiroids shouldn't be considered cheating, and everyone knows pot should be legal.

TRT is legal steroids, lets be honest keith they take an excess amount while training for the steroid benefit then get their levels down in time for the pee test that day before the fight.

Nearly everyone uses steroids Keith. Deal with it.

Maybe the pot legal thing is okay but Steroids shouldn't be cheating? Why don't all the fighters get robotic implant then, only the next step

Robotic implants should be legal as well, KFC.

youre stupid. im done arguing with you.

That is the 2nd time he has been caught for cheating. Glad he is done with the sport and that he got his ass beat by The Spider.

Very disapointed.....at least another juicer bites the dust thru the hands (and knees) of the goat.

They should all be "juicing". You're going to tell a man whose job is to be an athlete that he can't perform to his fullest? Why? Is that what you were told is right? It's stupid.

Maybe this will hinder the chances of Bonnar being inducted into the hall of fame?

Good question actually, not seen anyone mention that yet. IMO, someone getting popped for roids twice in the UFC shouldn't get in the HOF.

He may have been part of the legendary fight but in the end is that enough? Griffin was the winner and became champ so he definitely deserves HOF.



People are usually 50/50 on Bonnar getting in it, for me this puts him out.

Yeah I agree. Mike Chiappetta tweeted, '...the steroid Bonnar tested positive for, inhibits water retention. It's mostly used for weight cutting, not strength gains'. Doesnt make it any better, but he did have a long lay off from the sport and only had a 3 week camp or so! Makes it slightly understandable why he took it?

I see what you mean but IMO if he couldn't make the weight don't take the fight

Yeah true!

Guys you act like you are were born yesterday. Havent you already realized that 99% of pro athletes in EVERY sport on this planet take some sort of steroids? But not everyone is getting cought or I would say some are more protected than the others for many reasons.

Dude, I can't speak to other sports but I know a number of current and former pro fighters in both mma and boxing and none of the guys I know have ever juiced.

What pro fighters do you 'know'?

Adding insult to injury.

Well when you take a dive as hard as that you want to make sure you can recover.

**** you guys, youre all ****ing dumbasses

and im not just sayin that cuz im drunk!

To juice or not to juice he was probably thinking even if they bust me I need whatever edge possible vs Silva not okaying it just seems likely what someone might do,and TRT is not steroids.Its like calling meth crack.What if UFC used Vada for every fight I wonder how many fighters would get popped?

As sad as it is to see Bonnar fail yet again for the roids, though I don't hold anything against him. He most definitely didn't have to juice, and it wouldn't have made a difference, as Bas Rutten once said, it doesn't help your technique. I guess he really really wanted to go out with a win over Anderson.



Neither of these positives really surprised me. Peewee just has that stoner persona about him.
