    Negative.It depends on your body type consititution diet conditioning metabolism amonsgt a vast host of other exhaustive factors. Iv seen guys literally atrophy before my eyes in the gym as they`ve come off gear. They look pathetic. Its a fools paradise and most of these muppets are only on them so they can look good. Remember steroids passes through system quite quickly and can be completely gone after a few days of coming off a a fortnightly cycle.

    You are assuming a lot of things on my behalf. Nothing that I said has to do with their projected character, or their body make-up if you read correctly. I base my assumptions on their performances while fighting in Japan without testing vs their performances in the United States with testing. You are saying that I base it off of whether they win or lose... but Henderson lost right? Yes he did, but he looked the same, and he looked good to me. I think there is an obvious drop in the performance of Cro-Cop, Shogun, Herring ect... when they fought in the united states as opposed to Japan. However, Fedor fighting in the United States looked the same to me, same with Rampage and Henderson... which is why I came to that conclusion.

    Prefers fighting in a ring

    Likes fighting in Japan. Considers it a second home

    No excuses for two losses in UFC. Called it a "bad period"

    Stated that he will one day return to fight in the UFC

    I was hoping Cop would just retire. He had a great career in Japan, while probably on the juice. When he came here, and possibly came off the juice, he embarrased himself. He should just hang them up. Even if he dominates Dreams for 10 years, people are still going to say, "Yeah, but when he stepped into the Octagon, he just couldn't hack it."

    Cop's still one of my favorite fighters of all times, but he hasn't been doing his career or himself any service lately.
