King Mo's manager recalls non-anabolic steroid injection

source: usatoday.com

"Both of us are very surprised by these results," Muhammed Lawal's manager Mike Kogan told USA TODAY. "Neither of us has ever heard of this drug. ... We honestly have no clue where this came from."

Other than food and drink, the only substances that Lawal takes on a regular basis are iron supplements, Kogan said. When Lawal had fluid drained from his knee a few weeks before the bout, he did receive an injection of a non-anabolic steroid, Kogan said.

At least four fighters have tested positive for drostanolone: former UFC lightweight contender Hermes Franca in July 2007; light-heavyweight Bill Mahood in October 2007; welterweight Dennis Hallman in November 2007; and former UFC heavyweight champion Josh Barnett in July 2009.

Ed Herman tested positive for weed and steroids last yr and that ended up being a mistake that Luckily Herman was never disciplined for.

Honestly, do any of these people think?Are all of their managers/handlers stupid?Even if some CRAZY accident happened before the fight, wouldn't someone in King Mo's camp decide "this sounds ridiculous, we should just stay quiet"?"When you find yourself in a hole, stop digging" - Will Rogers

its not fighter bashing... that was my opinion on his punishment. and he is in fact a cheater. Fighter bashing would be saying something like, King Mo is a (insert offensive word here) and should die, or i hate him because hes (so on and so forth) or something along those lines. I stated an opinion and a fact. So you gtfo. I dont like cheaters or ppl who try to beat the system. He can go ahead and gtfo along with you with that "I didnt know" and "Im innocent" routine.

or even something like some of the OTC stuff...i'm not talking monthlong cycles, i'm talking a few doese to help drop water and make weight easier, which is what i suspect he used Masteron for...

Like letro? But he will be dealing with a crashed sex drive, and the rebound is going to suck! Also all those A.I's will show up come test time

i belive Superdrol was a prohomone based off of Anadrol 50, hence the similar side effects. both are DHT derivatives, but have drastically different effects from Masteron, Proviron and Winny.like some other guys said, Masteron is good for cutting, so i suppose he might have used it to make weight. a strong antiestrogen could also help shed some water prior to a weigh-in as well, and not cause him to piss hot...

It's perfect. The person that administered the injection is liable for nothing and attempted to take the heat off Mo, as if he had no clue.Keith Keizer doesn't even have a Reverse gear in his car. The ruling, fine and suspension will stand.
