Marcos Vasquez Rodriguez, was a loser twice on August 3, 2024, once against Steven 'So Cold' Nelson, and again after failing the post fight drug test.
There's no need for you to be disappointed after you learned about your opponents failed PED test, because you still kicked his ass, and weren't hurt in the fight.
The problem lies in future opponent's who come up dirty, and have hurt you in a fight against them, that's the problem.
There has to be more stringent legal repercussions for fighters who take drugs to get an unfair advantage against their opponent's. This has got to stop!

Nelson does everything right and his opponent cheats. Fking chaps my ass. I follow Nelson on Twitter and he has many talents, great sense of humor, great personality. And I don't follow anyone on Twitter but really like Nelson. Pull the opponent's paycheck and suspend him!

Make it an automatic lifetime ban and you’ll see PED use stop

I couldn’t have agreed more! The main goal and purpose of voluntary random drug testing is to deter known drug cheats from popping dirty for PEDS.

However and instead, while knowing full well in advance that they are being monitored by signing up for Voluntary random drug testing.

They still choose to cheat anyway like: Jarrell ‘Big Baby’ Miller, Saul Canelo Alvarez, Ryan Garcia and Conor Benn. Which is both sad and pathetic!
