Arguably the most ridiculous athlete MMA has ever seen. Can't help but think years of heavy PED use wrecked his body and led to his very early passing.

Good thing you left it as a link.

Although horrific, I don't think that was the cause of death. OP's link states it was pneumonia and heart failure...can an infection like that lead to pneumonia? I don't know. Either way, rip. Dude was a beast and it's sad that so many fighters/wrestlers die early.

Goddamn man those pride fights

They should just let them all juice it up to the gills

The power factor

Like the Steroid era in baseball

This TRT ban shit has made dudes inferior to fighters not even 5 years ago, let alone peak juice boyz in pride

I think Pride contracts said they would only test for narcotics :lol


its widely known a lot of Pride fighters were on roids where they could get away with it in Pride.

which says a lot about fedor considering Putin/Russia roiding their athletes scandal.

Those training mats and octagon canvases are soaked with sweat and blood and many other germs, and MMA fighters have to roll around on them.

Fedor is a Sambo guy. He knows how to absorb those big throws.
