Who has had the biggest performance drop off post USADA.

[Keithhackney]

Weidman easily

 

[ArtemV]

Anderson Silva

 

[Jim420316]

Weidman, Hendricks, Anderson Silva, Aldo, Lombard, Machida, Overeem... The entire landscape has changed.

 

[dim_]

The correct answer is Ronda, she went from Champ to chump in the matter of months...

I would have her ex Travis Browne pretty close to her as well. Having seen his test data from the fight against Barnett im in no doubt he was gimmicked so kinda satisfying to see him fall down..

fwiw, heres the worst records post usada (post october 1st 2015)..

Evans, Lombard, Hendricks, Condit, Tibau are the most obvious...

Hendricks by a fucking Mile.. He can't even make 185 off the juice..

 

[Halifax]

Jones didn’t drop off.
He maintained his elite level of technique, cardio, and ability to absorb punishment.

And was flagged for Juicing multiple times, hence why he did not drop off. Cheating fucktard he is

 

[Dbreiden83080]

Hendricks has to be pretty high on the list.

The Highest to me. He was such a beast at 170. Great cardio, power, wrestling, knocking fools out.. Then USADA.. Game over..

 

[gevoudane]

Cant remember the fighter, but there was one that changed dramatically, but it was because he could no longer use the IV, not that he was using PEDs before. Lost at least two division of size.

its pretty hard to judge.. hes only fought twice

once he looked like shit and the other he tested positive


the most punishment hes absorbed has been from usada

Worth highlighting Hector Lombards girlfriend at the time as well, Valerie Letourneau..

At one point they had matching 0-3 records

she went from title contender to getting beaten by a fucking midget, seriously, a fucking midget

If we did it on couples, Letourneau/Lombard would rival Ronda/Browne

between them they are a combined 1-14 post USADA (Hector 0-5, Val 0-3, Ronday 0-2, Travis 1-4)

Funny enough the fight where he underperformed is the only time we can be sure he competed clean.

we cant be sure he competed clean for that fight. all we can be sure of is he didnt test positive.

 

[GreatSaintGuillotine]

Mighty mouse doesn't even take supplements like protein powder or creatine in case they are tainted. But then again all he fights are midgets.

He was like that at BW too.

 

[GreatSaintGuillotine]

Well it's a newer weight class. In fact the newest. So it's not as deeply rooted in peds as the other weight classes. It has a fresher, cleaner origin. Also you can't get too big in that weight class.

Well MM has already beaten 1 PED user during his title run so maybe the root are deeper than you think.

 

[caliboi74lv]

Wow, agreed 100 percent. Huge drop off, same with Lombard.

I agree but only 70%

 

[djason1988]

Weidman looked to be a wrecking machine before USADA. He's still a great fighter, but was the most disappointing to me.

He went from being the largest middleweight in the division to looking deflated

 

[Dbreiden83080]

Weidman easily

He's mostly been getting injured.

 

[CPH]

Mighty Mouse is the one and only fighter that was champion pre-USADA and has retained their championship belt in the post-USADA era.

Werdum lost and got busted.
Jones got busted.
Weidman lost.
Lawler lost.
Pettis lost.
Aldo lost.
Dillashaw lost (although he won it back).
Rousey lost.
Esparza lost.

In short, everyone juices (except mighty mouse apparently).

I hope that you're joking with that list. Losing is not proof of juicing. Some fighters have lost while looking good, others have suddenly started looking shockingly deflated and posted consistently disastrous performances as soon as USADA rolled in. There's a difference.

Steroids stunt your growth... just saying...

This list is joke. USADA started testing 1 July 2015.
Lawler won belt before USADA, and defended it twice after.
Weidman was not able to handle weight cut after USADA.
Aldo won against Edgar 1 year after USADA, and won interim FW belt.
Dominick Cruz won belts before and after USADA.
Jedrzejczyk won belt and defended it before USADA, and then defended it 4 times after USADA.


Only 3 champions from 2015 are suspicious:
Jon Jones - obvious PED user, proven cheater
Werdum - was caught recently, possible cheater
Ronda - totall disaster after USADA came, who tf knows, possible

That's it.
