Thiago Silva admits to cheating following his fight against Vera when his urine sample had inconclusive results

Says he reinjured his back in training for the Vera fight and didn't want to pull out, so he used injections to his back that had things in it that were on the AC's banned substance list and so he tried to mask his urine.

He admits fault, admits trying to cheat the system, apologizes to Vera, UFC and the fans and takes full responsibilities for his actions and will accept any penalties/punishment

I personally forgive him, at least he owns up to it, but he needs to be punished to the fullest extent because this is not something to play with when your job is to beat the crap out of the other guy

Not to mention, his actions during the fight were questionable, and for him to do that, while knowing he is cheating, is a little much for me.
 
yea i hear you

he definitely needs to watch himself with the cheating and the way he acted in that fight. i'm ok with fighters making mistakes, poor judgements, poor decisions, but if they learn from it, i'm forgiving. i have a problem with fighters that continue their ways. like when brock first came into mma, i didn't like him, but now he's a bit more mature and kind of left the wwe type antics behind, i'm good with him now. hopefully thiago will learn from his mistakes
 
well, Eddie didn't finish Curran, but he sure did put a whoopin' on him for five rounds. My only worry about him against say Melendez or Frankie is how low he keeps his hands, but he recovers so quickly when he gets knocked down. If we never see Gilbert/Alvarez I'm going to be super bummed.
 
Frank Mir and Roy Nelson to square off.

rooting for the same, but just not sure if crusher has enough to beat Gil, but if anyone from Japan does, it's him for sure. I'll have to get my cousin to tape this.
 
I cant wait for Diaz vs Daley this weekend so stoked. Also Melendez is back in action!
