Unbelieveable! I would have never guessed these guys would do this. Very sad.

Were you being sarcastic? I don't know much about UFC but I'd assume they'd all be taking steroids.

yeah i'm sure it was sarcasm... i think the real story is that ONLY TWO failed

those aren't big names.

There's a thread over on the Dark Side called something like "Are there any clean sports left?" I'm doubting there are, and this does not surprise me at all.

Honestly, why anyone would be shocked is beyond me anymore. These guys are competing for TONS of cash, and this stuff is readily available. We will never again see a sport WITHOUT allegations of PEDs, that's for sure.

Moon Sherk holds the belf for the 155 class so I would say he is a big name, but Franca not so much. Sherk doesent really suprise me since he is one big muscle....I would be interested to know how many more of thses guys are on roids. I wouldnt think someone like Rich Franklin would be...

No, I wasn't being sarcastic. Sherk just seemed like such a good, smart guy, and so did Franca. And no, this isn't the WWE. Not everyone is taking steroids. This is real.

Well, maybe not to the casual fan, but I follow the sport pretty well, and anytime one guy has a belt and the other just fought him for the belt, I'd say they're big names.

I'm shocked because of 1) who did it, 2) because they both just fought each other, 3) because they knew they'd get caught, 4) because they now have to serve a one year suspension.
