If someone gets caught in Montreal, it doesn’t mean the whole team is dirty. “People say, ‘None of my guys use PEDs.’ We don’t know. One thing GSP cautioned against is lumping together all of the teams and gyms of fighters caught cheating. I think the fight shouldn’t have happened, but unfortunately it did and nobody got hurt, which is a good thing.” I’ve always considered performance-enhancing drugs like a weapon and you shouldn’t be allowed to fight like this. It’s a fighting sport – a full-contact sport. “You put your life in jeopardy every time you step in the Octagon. Then the whole thing came out and it was bad,” St-Pierre recalled. “ called me to fight in Montreal and he texted me to see if I was interested in fighting Anderson Silva right before this thing came out. St-Pierre says he’s glad he didn’t take the bout with Silva, who tested positive for two steroids ahead of his UFC 183 bout with Nick Diaz. The former UFC welterweight champion said that he was offered a superfight with Anderson Silva at UFC 186 in April, and he declined the fight because he was busy with other projects and because he was still concerned about PEDs in the sport. A lot of fighters are going to be caught.” I believe this is the tip of the iceberg. If they keep doing the right testing, going to be other guys coming up. "I’m not surprised so many guys have gotten busted. It’s not like a race or a game,” St-Pierre told Ariel Helwani on The MMA Hour on Monday.
I knew for a long time, and it was bothering me and bothering me more and more. But St-Pierre held fast to his longtime belief that a large percentage of fighters from every rung of the rankings ladder are getting a pharmaceutical leg up on the competition.
