i loved Pride. much better than ufc in my opinion. at least they were upfront about its usage. unlike uncle dana who will denounce his athletes that pop while jizzing all over himself signing Lesnar to fight to fill seats. if you are willing to get in a cage for money to ace anoher man to physically beat his ass you are in it for the money and if you are in it for the money to make a living you better be doing everything you can to get an edge since the lifespan of a fighter's career is so minute. just like baseball, they staged a strike that canceled a world series and fans weren't coming back til the (alleged) steroid duo of McGwire and Sosa chased the holy grail of HR records. people don't want to see average everyday people compete, the won't pay money to see that. they want larger than life superheroes to watch like Hulk Hogan and Jimmy Snuka back in the day and Brock Lesnar and the like today. they don't want to see average joe hitting 28 homers a year, they want 65 homers by the super studs on sustanon. i say let everyone juice if they're professional athletes.
