I saw a recent pic of Tito Ortiz and his jaw is huge and jutting out like a neanderthal's. He did not look that bad before.
The other famous ones are beginning to look unnatural as well.

These guys you see on pay TV are not on steroids they all have drug tests before and after they fight and if they test positive they will be suspended and fined. Just recently in the WFA MMA fighting legend Bas Rutten was coming out of retirement to fight UFC veteran Kimo Leopoldo when days before the fight Kimo tested positive to steroids and was forced out of the event with 48 hours until the event Ruben WARPATH Villareal stepped in and lost the fight to Bas.
In other events such as UFC 36 the UFC heavyweight champion Randy Couture was defending his title against Josh Barnett and Barnett won the fight by TKO in the second round only to be stripped of the title after testing positive to steroids. Also the current UFC Heavyweight champion Tim Sylvia was stripped of his title and banned from MMA compitition for 6 months after he tested positive to steroids after defeating Gan Mc Gee at UFC 44.
So i guess that some of these fighters might use steroids but they dont get away with it. The most common drug in the sport besides pain killers is cocain they take the drug before they work out and it gives them a burst of energy that will last for a few hours while they lift weights and do there workouts. The reason they use this drug is that it only stays in your system for about 48 hours and is un detectable after that.

St Anthony,
Thank you for the question.
You might say so but I wouldn't have the courage. They would probably reset my bones in unusual positions and I would need your help to find my teeth.
Regards
