I have little problem with cheaters fighting other cheaters.

See when i was on get your facts straight I was speaking about dudes being the height of kelly pavilk, holyfield, etc fighting at 135 pds. Just not natural.

[Grimmer]

LOL, both of their fights were a complete farce for many reasons.

Both should be NC'ed.

HCTZ is not that big of a deal. Im on it for high blood pressure and it doesnt help you lose all that much weight. Definitely didnt piss out the 9lbs that Guzman weighed.

So Funeka uses a weight-loss product against a guy who fail to make weight big-time. How ironic that he gets caught. He might have won the fight had he not taken the drug.
