TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) meddelades under gårdagen ha förbjudits av Nevadas idrottskommitté (NSAC) och UFC, ett beslut som väckt reaktioner runt om i MMA-världen. Reaktionerna har nästintill uteslutande varit positiva, och här nedan finner ni vad fighters och media hade att säga om beslutet via twitter:
I’m okay with the Nevada Commission banning TRT… But if they start checking ice cream levels I am going to be really upset. #MMA #UFC @ufc

Very happy to see TRT banned, absolutely a ridiculous idea to start with and a major factor of my personal retirement from fighting

So TRT is now officially banned in Nevada. U could argue I only have one loss on my record. After I beat Kennedy I want my shot at the title

Great decision by the NAC to ban TRT, big step forward for our sport. Lets see who don’t want to fight in Vegas anymore now.

Nevada just banned the use of synthetic testosterone for fighters. Shit just got real. Literally.

The Nevada State Athletic Commission banned testosterone. It is a great day for the sport. I hope all states follow suit. #TRT

TRT is finally banned, now we can only hope that 1 day we will have Olympic level drug screening in MMA. So we can catch the EPO, HGH users
