Anderson Silva testade positivt på bland annat anabola steroider efter sin match mot Nick Diaz, som ägde rum vid UFC 183 tidigare i år. Här kan ni läsa vad Lyoto Machida hade att säga om hela situationen via ”MMAFighting”, och han tycker att Silva är ett offer:
I’m very surprised, but I think he’s a victim. I think he’s a story. I prefer not to talk about that because it’s a very difficult situation. I have a lot of confidence in Anderson. I know that maybe he doesn’t use that. I’m in camp. He’s in America now. I haven’t talked to him for a while. I don’t know what happened. I prefer to stay away from this situation.
Sometimes back in the day it was allowed to use steroids through TRT, but suddenly they banned everything. I don’t know what happened. Maybe a couple guys still using TRT got caught. I try to be away from this stuff because I know it’s very dangerous.
I’m just concerned about doing my job, doing my best. But if they’re very strict now it’s going to be good for the sport. It’s going to be good for everyone.
Härnäst kommer Machida att kliva in i oktagonen vid ”UFC on FOX 15”, då han tar sig an Luke Rockhold den 18 april.
