But yeah Lawler couldnt handle that Usada fueled punch :noway: :noway:


Except a few guys like pre USADA Lawler. Remember that guy? He had an iron head.

If you can get a comment from Woodley and Wonderboy on this too, ask what they think about your suggestion that Pettis was probably on roids. :D Pretty sure Woodley would deride you for it and Wonderboy would calmly correct you that was just tma genius. If we're just basing truth on what those 1-2 fighter's think.


Lawler never ate a punch anywhere near as hard as the one Tyron landed on him. I dont know why thats so hard for u to grasp. Tyron has also said he used something Nick Diaz did extremely well to Ko Robbie has been Kod by a perfect right hook before too. He also said on Mma hour that due to how Robbies head is shaped he can take strikes head on those type of volume patty cake strikes he sees coming but ppl cant take those powerful, speed drive shots that cover a ton of distance and hit the chin like he did. He said Robbies never been hit like that which is true. Carlos and Rory arent even capable of punching as hard as Woodley at his best. Hendricks is but he lost his power last couple years for some reason..........Usada prolly has a bit to do with it but Hendricks also relied on closing a large amount of distance quickly for the Fitch and Kampmann Kos. He hasnt been able to do that against the Condits, Robbies, Browns, Kelvins etc.

Tyron trains at Roufus now naturally he would support Pettis.

I mean i just rewatched Pettis/Lauzon and Pettis/Cerrone and i couldnt believe how different that guy looked from the version who fought Barboza.

Even comparing Pettis/Stephens and Pettis/Alvarez similar style fights he lost alot of explosiveness and speed.

He looked great against Gilbert, dropped him multiple times and became the only guy to finish him. Got murked by Rda (suffered an orbital injury) and then had an elbow injury pulling out from Jury fight. Not two things (eye and elbow) that should affect the clear decline in his speed and athleticism. After he returned he hasnt looked so good under Usada. He slowed down alot in the last round against Barboza and Eddie, this a guy who was kicking ppl off the cage in round 5 after a war. Even against Rda he simply lost to a superior fighter and was at least trying in the last round and never slowed down that hard.

I know Pettis is one of ur fave fighters and u seem to have a selective bias as far as Usada suspicion goes (not suspecting Erick Silva of all ppl is hilarious) but its very suspicious.

Seriously that punch drops any Ww. Carlos and Rory have never thrown a punch that hard in their lives. The most athletic guy in the division loading up a punch like that, getting a full hip turn into it with Lawler taking it RIGHT on the chin. Its crazy he needed followup to be put away. Chalking that up to Usada is nothing but nonsense.

How are they not suspicious? Bones looked TERRIBLE against Osp and was visibly gassed late in the fight. Bones NEVER gasses and in facts WINS fights late. Well he already got caught so theres no point in speculating since hes a confirmed roider.

Pettis has clearly declined as well. He got completely waxed by Barboza and looked very slow. Its strange, same with late against Eddie he started to slow down considerably (tho hes always had problems with that style like against Guida and even when Stephens wrestled).

Weidman looked like a Ww against Luke and he gassed quick. Hell even Luke was gassing so hes suspect to as far as Usada not to mention getting Kod by Michael **** Bisping of all ppl. Aka camp has strong ties to Victor Conte too. Im really curious to see how Cain looks in later rounds under Usada. He needed to clinch with Brown after his bursts against the cage which was kinda strange.

Rashad looked TERRIBLE against Bader whos not even a very good fighter and even worse against Glover.

Erick Silva looks like a completely different fighter post Usada. Doesnt even fight the same.


I do not believe Jones was on PED's for his whole career. I do believe he was on PED's from last year. With his one year off from MMA- Jones bulked up like a mad man. He wanted to gain more muscle and fast- so i believe he took PED from last summer. It was not a error. Jones's brother also got caught recently with PED's.
I believe he used PED's for his fight with OSP- and he looked slow with less cardio. He was bigger and that extra muscle hurt him. Jones is still the LHW king- but his stock has fallen.
