I think he had a chance at an exception before the Twitter tirade. He blew it by saying he had to take substances-- even if that was the right call for him personally given how Weidman's situation ended up.

He made his case to Twitter and the public, rather than keep those comments for lawyers and USADA. For that reason, USADA's hands are tied due to the optics. No exemption on 6 month enrollment will be granted.

It is still up to the UFC to grant an exemption for the 6-month notification requirement. So if the UFC waives that, then Conor would just need 2 negative tests.

He could also have talked to USADA and the UFC regarding a "Therapeutic Use Exemption", in concert with his doctors. I doubt that Conor would have approached USADA/UFC if he was actually 'doping'. And even if they didn't grant a TUE, Conor just has to wait for it to 'wash out' of his system before trying to come back.

I've never heard of a TUE for anything besides TRT in the history of the sport.

It's a tough sell that his recovery was assisted by just some elevated testosterone. It's possible, but the photos and way he's talking on Twitter sounds more like kitchen sink.

If he wants to clarify and come clean on his USADA application to use drugs, then he should tell the public what he's doing since he already opened on the door on that himself yesterday by going public with it.

i believe, but have no proof, that TUE don't have to be disclosed

Especially in 2022, where people are accusing the Liver King of having ab implants.

Yeah, about that. Please don't tell me you believed he was natty?

Natty or not, I give the dude some props for sticking to that tight of a daily schedule. Hell of a commitment to the con.

Favorite part was the jaw dropping 11,000 USD a month GH bill and the year-long IGF-1 LR3 "cycle" that never ends apparently. I could see lying about HRT/TRT but he definitely can't get a pass if he's taking substances that aren't bioidentical. He is taking 2 other exotic steroids that aren't naturally found in anything.

Hey, that's not a bad fight night at all. I'm actually looking forward to that Niko Price fight.
