Perhaps I'm not quite grasping it, but didn't the drug bring his testosterone level to normal/below normal levels of an adult male? Therefore, wasn't above normal, or high enough to give him any advantage in the fight. At the end of the hearing, I was under the assumption that it wasn't so much because he used it which was the problem, but rather, he did not properly disclose he was using it for the Silva fight. Well, the whole reason he got caught was for increased levels of testosterone found in his system. If it was at normal or below normal, then there wouldn't have been an issue. Yeah, but he did not test higher than normal. Didn't he bring paperwork providing that evidence? I think they just found synthetic testosterone in his system which was the original problem. In fact, I don't think they can even determine his testosterone level based on a urine sample. I may be wrong on the latter point though. |

Here is an interview Chael did with Mike Straka of HDNet right after the hearing. It certainly seems as though the real issue is NOT what Chael was or was not taking, it is that he broke protocol and went about disclosing it the wrong way.

If by "went about disclosing it the wrong way", you meant didn't disclose it at all, then yes.
And no, regardless what anyone says, I personally don't find a "phone call" an acceptable form of notification. If there's a specific part of the medical forms where he should have listed this, and there is, then that's that. He didn't list it, regardless of anything else.

Apparently, Sonnen is calling out Wandy on Twitter... He (Sonnen) will be cleared to fight early March, so it could happen...  |
