UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones tested positive for a trace amount of the same oral Turinabol metabolite that caused a series of issues surrounding UFC 232, according to the CSAC and VADA. Jones will not face sanction either by USADA or the other regulatory authorities.
Their reasoning rests on no new usage based on a prevailing hypothesis that’s riddled with problems central to its identity. While not punishing Jones further is the right call, the willingness of anti-doping authorities to adjudicate cases based on stitched-together narratives is disconcerting.
but shouldn't jones at leat sit out as long as the m3 metabolite is in his system ?
that would help his case and all the ppl who think he is cheating …
also he should have bin punished for a longer time the last suspension anyway so i dont the the problem …
First the fact that there are no true weight classes in the UFC is extremely disappointing and has made me lose interest. And now that Dana White has walked back his zero tolerance PED policy has made me rethink my interest in this sport. This sends a terrible message to young people. As we know science is well ahead of testing and who knows what's really happening and what could be thought of as only a long-term metabolites could really be something currently and that he's taking that's brand new and is masked in some way to have him pass the test. Again we need zero tolerance for any metabolites of any kind.
Long term metabolites are going to be in his system for ATLEAST 45 days not just 45 days. Also USADA does testing for multiple sports leagues so they must have seen the same pulsing effect in more cases than just Jon's in order to feel comfortable in making their ruling. So they have more evidence than just the Rodchenkov study that they are working with. I am a huge fan of Luke Thomas and I think 99 percent of the times he is spot on but he has the facts wayyyyy of on this one.
Luke Thomas is a reverse psychic. He can predict the past! Frank Mir tested positive for the same thing, used the same defense, and got 2 years suspension. USADA is a joke
Solid point mate. The Snitch is turning out to be a best buy.
professional sports are not your typical carrer. you dont have the right to that as people have to amke a living.
Your "he's been punished already" arguments are bullshit. He was rewarded with an early release from his punishment. Had he served his entire punishment I'd be fully on board with you.
luke sounds like you been snorting picograms brah hahaha love ya brother
Thomas like cheaters
I don't get how people can watch this dude. He's drier than Cyborg's man muff.
I'm glad they don't let him on TV things
