“I’ve been accused of using steroids my entire life, probably since the tenth grade in high school… I’ve never failed a drug test. Now if I was a black guy and I looked the way I do would I get asked this question a 100 times? I just happen to be a white guy that has some great genetics, so I guess that puts a bullseye on me… I’m a white dude that’s shredded and you don’t see a lot of it — a guy that’s walking around that looks like me.”
The 285 pounder was recently tested by the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) for illegal/banned substances for his upcoming fight with Randy Couture and passed. He will be tested again on or before fight night, November 15th.

He's clean now but no way was he clean when he was in WWE. And for the record I hope he destroys Randy when they fight this month.

Brock supposedly passed urine tests in the WWE. He claims he's never failed a drug test and never did roids. All of that can always be bullshit but I watched a thing on Brock one time where he took ice baths after all of his workouts so he would heal faster, get more days on the workout, and get almost twice the results. I think he's just a genetic competitive freak and always has been

Brock is a freak of nature physically, but I do think, just like 90% of WWE wrestlers, that he wasn't clean when he was there. Now I would believe it because he has dropped like 50 pounds but he's still totally jacked.
I got a feeling he's going to beat Coture. As long as Brock can remain composed and take advantage of his openings, he should win.

I agree that he was on something when he was with WWE. What always gives it away is the answers given. He can say that he has not failed a drug test but he won't commit to saying that he has never taken steroids at any stage.
When you look at Brock now he is still huge but his build is different, he looks more natural and rounded and is carrying more fat, but when he was in WWE his build was more defined and he was shredded.

He actually only dropped 10 - 15lbs since being in WWE. He was about 290 in WWE and he only dropped to about 280. The only reason he weighs in at 265 in fights is because he cuts weight. But he's actually not much smaller than he was. He even said he didn't drop that much weight since joining the UFC and getting to 265 is always a process before each weigh in. He's an animal

He's an animal I thought it was more but it doesn't matter. I still wouldn't want to fight the guy. His strength is just absolutely freaky. |

That's damn true MB. That guys a fuckin monster. He seriously is one of the strongest men I've ever seen in my life. The way he was in the ring and his video training, it's almost scary to imagine a guy can be that fuckin strong. Even at his weight he is still amazing in a pound for pound ratio

When he fought Frank Mir, he turned his face into meat the first minute before making the rookie mistake and stepping into Mir's ankle lock. That fight wasn't a surprise at all. The strong young Brock came in kicking the shit out of the veteran and the veteran capitalized on the only mistake Brock made

Now imagine what Brock will be like with another five or so fights under his belt.

I still think Couture is going to win. I might be wrong though. Brock is definitely one of the most promising young MMA stars I've seen

Coutore has a mega load of experience but he hasn't fought in over a year and that might be just what Brock needs to win.

I give Couture credit for getting in there with Brock. He has nothing to prove and he's getting in there with an animal

Is it a match for the heavyweight title between them?
