Which pretty much means we won't find out who is fighting in UFC 146 until after April 24th. LINK

I don't even know what to think about this whole situation. I want this fight to happen, but I don't want AO to make a mockery of this whole process, the rules, league/organization, etc. Gotta think this case could set some type of dangerous precedent if he is reinstated immediately. The whole testosterone/TRT thing confuses the hell out of me.....

exact thought process for me. JDS vs AO is such an intriguing matchup but if AO can get away with it it will encourage other fighters to try to beat the system.

This really sucks for JDS. He has been training this whole time for a stand-up striking battle against AO, and he might have to put his belt on the line against someone like Werdum, Mir, etc with no time to prepare.

trt if its taken the way it should shouldnt increase your testosterone:epitestosterone levels as much as overeems were.

personally he probably took something like testosterone cypionate

yup but the same argument could be said for the other fighters who have no time to prepare for JDS. I hope they put Hunt in there against him but It's probably unlikely.

True.....but,

Chances are whoever gets the title shot won't be truly deserving, won't be on a 9 fight win streak, undefeated in tUFC, and will only get the shot by default. The challenger won't be the true #1 contender and will have absolutely nothing to lose. JDS is the best fighter in the world and will have everything to lose (including his belt). Really hope he gets to fight and isn't shelved for 6 months until the winner of Mir/Cain is ready....
