As an admitted testosterone user himself, UFC announcer Joe Rogan just can’t seem to make sense of the vicious performance he saw from Vitor Belfort in his third fight against Dan Henderson at UFC Fight Night 77 last Saturday in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
It’s worth pointing out that for his part, “The Phenom” successfully passed four separate drug screenings conducted by USADA leading up to the November 7th trilogy fight with “Hendo,” however that doesn’t seem to be enough to convince the longtime UFC commentator that everything was on the up-and-up for that performance.
“When you look at Vitor now, he definitely looks better in this fight then he did in the Chris Weidman fight,” Rogan said on his latest Joe Rogan Experience podcast. “He looked more built, but he still didn’t look like he did when he was on [testosterone replacement therapy] TRT.”
Joe Rogan elaborated on his thoughts, revealing his belief that if he indeed needed T.R.T. in the past, how is he able to return to old form so quick after getting off of it, without finding something undetectable that gives him the same result.
But the question is, what is he doing now? If he needed testosterone replacement before how has his body recovered like this? Has he figured out some nutritional way to get around it or is he figuring out some undetectable way to use? No one knows. We’re not going to know unless he gets caught.”
Rogan continued, “Tim Kennedy said it best. He said, ‘It doesn’t look like Vitor is using as many steroids. Tim Kennedy is hilarious. He said he wanted to fight ‘the slower, fatter Vitor.'”
