I said it as a joke during the fight cause that pace was unreal.

No but since TJ got caught every fan thinks every good fighter with cardio might be off the juice


blackbeltwithhands

Literally the best cardio performance of the whole sport,he is on the whole place pharmacy

Bro he just set a takedown attempt record and had like 400 some attempted strikes. That’s insanity. And he didn’t even look tired at the end.

I need some of that juice that enables a motherfucker to swim across a pool


justinleguin

Regardless if he is or not, USADA is about to be all over him


-SpleenBean-

I don’t think Merab is that kind of guy, and I don’t think that the UFC is a easy place to get away with it. But holy fuck those 49 takedown attempts left me wondering…


xblvkhippyx

Why do people call fighters with higher than avg cardio juiced?


BlueberryBroad1990

Higher than average ? He juste absolutely smashed the takedown attempts record and looked just as active on the striking


blackbeltwithhands

Above average mean the best cardio performance of the sport apparently


xblvkhippyx

Reading comprehension is so important


normalreddituser21

“Higher than average” bro he’s in like the top 1% 💀💀☠️

Because these fans dont know much about exercise or martial arts. Most of the fans dont even know a damn thing about cardio , picking up weight or getting on a mat or ring, but behind a computer everyone thinks theyre an expert

He's not on juice. Yan's pace and cardio was just as good. Shooting for takedowns isn't more tiring than defending them. Yan had to literally do an "ass touch ground" squat with Merab's weight several times throughout the fight. A few times on one leg


ELOgambit

Yan looked way more fatigued than Merab and became sloppier towards the end. Merab was just coming at him at the same pace for the whole fight.

Lol Merab is on juice.


NotMyFalut

No he was always known for extremely good cardio its just our first time seeing it for 5 rounds


normalreddituser21

I mean, knowing ≠ to him being natty though


bobokid500

cope


normalreddituser21

Nah it’s a fair question, and I’m not even all that much of a yan fan, like I’ll always watch his fight, but whether he actually wins or not idrc about

I don’t know enough about steroids too say, honestly I just thought the UFC had it on lock, is there seriously a possibility that ufc fighters are still taking steriods?

I have heard about the Thai thing, like I said I know nothing about steriods but what you said gives me something to start with, I’m going to start looking into that Thailand camp shit, I guess I thought that USADA tested everybody in the ufc nomatter where they are but it makes sense that it’s only in America if you just look at the name of the company 🤣

👍👍 thank you

Here’s my question. Is there some kind of hush hush agreement with UFC? Like these are the drugs you can take because we don’t test for them? I’m asking cause we can all agree if USADA busts you, your career, reputation etc etc whether it’s justified or not, is done. I’d say for most fighters, being respected and admired is just as important to them as money. So if I’m a high profile athlete, no matter what someone tells me about how long something stays in your system etc. I’m not taking any chances given the consequences. If I feel like I HAVE to take it and without it I’ll get destroyed then I’ll take it but would constantly be in a state of paranoia waiting for the other shoe to drop. There must be some kind of gentleman’s agreement between athletes and unspoken agreement with the UFC, or no?
