Serious question: the T-800 series terminator had organic flesh with working circulatory system and real muscles etc. Was the T-800 at peak performance, or could it benefit from TRT? I mean, you have to think it has zero testosterone, so any testosterone above zero would have to benefit the terminator in some way, but maybe it was only as athletic as the hyper-alloy endoskeleton would allow it to be...

Either way, there is a serious testosterone problem in our sport - many fighters have too little. Who would've ever thought so many of our favorite fighters would be in so much need of extra testosterone, I think we were all under the assumption it took major balls to get into the cage. Luckily this epidemic of low testosterone counts hasn't hit the NBA, or the NFL yet...Phew.

Chalk Forrest Griffin up as the latest fighter to suffer from low testosterone, which does not please his trilogy-partner Tito Ortiz.

Why is everyone ragging on Tito? Doesn't everyone know he paved the way for the UFC and literally every single fighter and mixed martial artist!?

When no one was giving Ariel Helwani interviews, Tito pretty much gave him a career and a name on a silver platter!

He made Joe Rogan's life complete after their first interview!

He ensured countless doctors stayed in business after his numerous surgeries that he didn't even need... or... didn't need until he lost...?

That's not the point! Tito paved the way for... everything!

(Me facing a mirror) Tito honestly lost that fight. Griffin stole rounds by outpointing Tito while Tito stood motionless gasping for air.

tito managed to stay humble for like 15 minutes, and i think that's only because he rehearsed his "farewell" speech so many times

it felt like he was gearing up for it every time he went near a microphone, forrest totally threw him off with his line of questioning and ruined his special night

Have you ever seen the documentary "Bigger Stronger Faster*"? It's really what the doctor reads into the test to determine what is considered low t. Not saying Forrest is or isn't but it's a doctor's judgement call.

^^ They are saying Forest got a TRT exemption which allows him to take testosterone, however he must stay below the allowed limit of 6:1.

If he didn't test over 6:1 then he won't trip the positive drug test.

There isnt a list of fighters that has been released. essentially if you get caught using it obviously that would be public knowledge, otherwise it is up to the athlete to just come out and say that they use it. A.K.A Dan Henderson

One nut or not it's still pretty shitty to see Forrest coming up positive for it. I hate Tito but for his last fight...that definitely sucks, just like it sucked for Brock Lesnar losing to Overoid. You don't want to see someone go out on that note.

Woah-- Forrest had permission and passed the test. He didn't turn up positive.

Say what you will about TRT, but Forrest did it legally.

TRT is not steroids, and is allowed by the NSAC so it's not cheating. Tito is willfully twisting the facts. He knows better and he's making a fool of himself.

People don't understand how prevalent low-T is. In diagnostic doses, it doesn't make you fight better, it just makes you like every other average person. It is NOT like taking Deca, Dianabol, Stanazolol etc.

It's just a patch with 4 mg of testosterone, gradually released over 24 hrs. It ain't cheating.

Tito is acting like a whiny bitch.

No, of course not, but if Forrest's natural testosterone is low, he's physically handicapped. He can then take TRT that will get his blood levels to "normal". Super high, above average T/E ratios would then indicate that his levels would be considered "the administration of PED". Taking some testosterone to get up to normal levels is common in people you see on the street every single day and you aren't even aware of it.

If FG's T/E is not out-of-whack, he's not cheating. It's the same way asthmatics get TUEs for bronchodialatio n to prevent exercised induced asthma. Are they cheating too, as their meds also fall under WADA rules?

Tito justr got outpunched by Forrest. He hit him good and knocked him down twice, but lost another close one. Now he can go home to the "cumdumpster" and blast away like every guy in the porn industry. They're perfect for each other, mentally damaged goods.
