Mr. Faber himself told me in person once that his former team mate abuses from substances and of course other members that we know as well.

If UFC will ask me to fight for the vacated title tomorrow I will agree without a doubt in my mind and I don’t care who will be my opponent. I want that belt!

Damn... not much can be said right now until more details come out but the testing has gotten so good that they can test all the way down to the “picograms” as we found out with #jonjones I wonder what is going through his mind, just a couple months ago he was looking to make history as a “double champ” and now a couple months later he has no title around his waist. #mma #ufc #fighter #fight #wrestling #boxing #kickboxing
