Anderson Silva, Hector Lombard and MMA's 'steroid epidemic'

ad

This was obvious when i saw his last fight........

"The UFC and MMA in general is a steroid epidemic," Rogan said this week on his podcast. "They've started this really stringent testing and everybody is getting popped. They're just getting popped left and right. It's one of the things fighters have been saying for a long time, that everyone is on steroids, a huge percentage. Give a number 50, 60 [percent]. Whatever the f**k it is that are on steroids."

News broke Feb. 3 that former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva had failed a pre-fight out of competition drug screening after testing positive for two types of anabolic steroids.

Silva scored a unanimous decision victory over Nick Diaz Jan. 31 at UFC 183 in Las Vegas, but is expected be handed a temporary suspension when the Nevada Athletic Commission meets Feb. 17.
