ugh... even franca man? wtf

this is getting unreal... i was pretty stunned when gracie tested positive and i thought "must be some error" but the man is not even going to appeal it because he is in spain and says it would of wasted his time since he is on vacation and it cost like 10 grand or some shit... so i now think he did do roids since he does not want to apeal...

but this shit is retarded... i bet you if they tested more people in sports like baseball and hockey you would see countless guys being tested positive

Franca said it was because he had a bad ankle and needed some help
he couldnt not fight because he needed the money

i would rather have bj beat him in a fight for the title... ufc has too much of a history of vacant champions
