this just screamed out "preemptive tainted supplement defense" at the time..

Even if one of those is contaminated he wont get much of a reduction. They are told repeatedly about the dangers of supplements, and told repeatedly to use third party certified supplements. Theres not an NSF or Informed Choice logo in sight..

Does that look like an athlete who has thoroughly researched their supplements, chosen certified supplements, done everything possible to reduce their risk? No

The UFC must have a calculation of ppv solds divided by picograms to determine the punishment.

Everyone is talking about steroids, but my initial thought was this is going to turn out to be a diuretic or something to assist with his flyweight cut.
That being said, where there is smoke there is usually fire and Cody certainly seemed confident when throwing TJ under the bus for what he allegedly witnessed previously.

Who knows. Either way, this sucks for TJ, the sport, and especially fans.
I had the same thought. That weight cut had to be brutal for him. My next thought was he's still champion in the other division so he should be exempt from USADA penalty. Champs get a license to have shit in their system even if it means moving an entire event to a different state. TJ should be super pissed. He's the victim here.

No one voluntarily gives up their title unless they know they’re mega fucked.
actually, yeah dammit, i bought his shit. too right, the title is worth so much literally/figuratively. if this were an honest surprise, and he genuinely did nothing wrong, relinquishing straight away is too noble an act. you would protest just a bit. (maybe he has, behind closed doors)

for someone who straight up got caught, relinquishing before the details are public looks like a noble act in favour of the division... but it's damage limitation.

that sucks. genuinely seemed he was changing his body by training in the future. ah no, more likely the other reason. occam's razor wins again, pwned.

TJ Picoshaw
He literally shares his camp with an Aaron pico....now I am not a doctor so I can’t tell you the difference between a picogram and an Aaron pico but I guess we’re about to find out.

PS just found out this Aaron pico has grown legs and is attempting a Bellator title run....this is next level shit, this level of doping goes deep.

I've done this exact same joke a thousand times on TMMAC.

I don't give the slightest fuck about nationalism but I do get annoyed that every single time a brazilian gets caught with PEDs the "juicy brazilians" narrative gets played out but when other people get caught with PEDs their naionality is not taken into account.
I blame Bolsonaro. Because he should be blamed for everything terrible.

This seems to be a pattern. Emperically, I feel like a strong majority of guys who get caught LOSE the fight they get caught on. Needs verification - just my gut on this.
Juicy J looked pretty good against DC.

Goddamnit TJ! What a mindfuck and it would've been even worse had he beat that lil ugly midget creep Cejudo and given up both belts...
