Quote:LAS VEGAS -- Former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva, widely considered the greatest fighter of all time, has tested positive for anabolic steroids.

The UFC announced on Tuesday that Silva, 39, had tested positive for the steroid drostanolone during a random out-of-competition test administered by the Nevada State Athletic Commission on Jan. 9. NSAC chairman Francisco Aguilar confirmed the positive test to ESPN.com

ESPN.com obtained a copy of Silva's lab report which indicates that he also tested positive for a second steroid called androstane.

Silva (34-6) returned from a 13-month layoff last weekend to defeat Nick Diaz via unanimous decision at UFC 183 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. The NSAC said results of the pre-fight test were not available until Tuesday morning, which is why the fight was not canceled.

Additionally, Aguilar informed ESPN.com that Diaz (26-10) tested positive for marijuana metabolites during a post-fight drug test. Aguilar said exact results were unavailable, but confirmed Diaz's results were above the allowable limit of 150 ng/ML.

LMFAO @ A. Silva being the greatest fighter of all time. These Mma journalists are ridiculous. know nothing about the sport.

I agree 100% I feel the same way about the Super Bowl. Seattle is the real winner here not the Patriots.

When the Asian crime betting syndicates, NWO/illuminati and crooked coaches/qb's get their hands on sporting events it ruins the whole experience. How can we trust any results after that farce???!!!

At least with Pride you knew you were watching legitimate fights involving steroid free fighters. Also with the budo that was possessed by the Japanese and it's fighters they would never work with the Yakuza to fix matches despite an obsession with Pro wrestling and being founded to match up a fake fighter with a bjj guy.

this org gets it. PRIDE is the only sports league to ever figure out how to tackle the PED problem effectively: let them all do it. No scandals, level playing field. win win.

Pride would have clamped down on roids if the japanese fighters were doing it.

Pride rules didn't favor the larger opponent so even if some dude was roiding the smaller more technical fighter could win. also the ring has more give compared to the cage.

Pride Rules, nuff said

Hah. The night of the Fight people were raving that Anderson had gotten old, but still completely outclassed and whooped Nick. No appreciation of the strategies, no acknowledgment of technique. No one was surprised by how fast Anderson was moving compared to Nick. It was all nuthuggery and the MMA big sites even claimed Anderson was #1 Ranked Middleweight Contender after the fight.

I'm glad I didn't get pulled into the hysteria. Some, maybe most fans have some impulse to believe someone is ultimate or invincible, then they ruthlessly support that person. The P4P Ranking games are obsessive and unhealthy. Many just want to type GOAT every post and learn nothing from what they watch.

Many of these fans are now beside themselves.
