That's every promoter in the history of combat sports (Except Coker, dude was a class act).

"I don't care where he fights. We're going to test guys all the way up till they fight," White said about Belfort.  "It doesn't matter where he fights.  If you ask for a TRT exemption, you are going to be tested brutally."

White's point was made even stronger when discussing TRT and it's alleged fountain-of-youth effect on older fighters.

"If he can't stop taking it, maybe it's time to hang them up," said White.

Suck a turd into a point and stab yourself with it. Don't give me that "every promoter in history of combat sports" shit. That's irrelevant. Difference is Dana White is one of the faces of MMA and is in a position to actually do something positive for a change yet he refuses to do so. He says one thing, but then does another.  Perhaps I wouldn't care so much if it weren't for the fact that he's such a hypocritical POS.

You say this is one of the best messaging forums you've ever posted on, yet you seem to love sticking up for him. I ask you this: whose side are you on?

"TRT has become a way for people to cheat," White told fans. "If this is what your normal level should be and then you have guys training at huge levels for their whole camp then tapering down to get to normal levels before the f--- fight, that's cheating, and I don't like it anymore."

"There are plenty of guys in the UFC that are naturally gifted and talented fighters," White continued. "If your testosterone levels are too low then you're probably too old to be fighting, stop fighting."

In a quote confirmed with MMAFighting.com via text message, White said, "We can test everybody. I'm telling you right now, if you are using testosterone replacement therapy, get ready motherf---- because we're going to test the s--- out of you."

"Some things recently have lead me to believe that people are f--- cheaters, people are taking good things and turning it into a bad thing and if you want to play those games then guess what, we'll play."

"There's so much s--- out there. Right now there's banned substances and and we follow the regulations and we're going after the banned substances, TRT was never one of them and they would be tested leading up to the fight to make sure the levels are good. If you're on TRT now, you're going to wish you weren't. We're going to test the living s--- out of you."

"You have guys that go in there 100 percent natural with his talent and natural ability, against someone on TRT, basically someone that's on steroids. I'm absolutely 100 percent against TRT and now I'm going to start fighting it 100 percent with the athletic commissions and I want nothing to do with it."
