Unless he was subjected to a drug test immediately before the polygraph and the credentials of the interrogator are made public as well as a full transcript of the session, idgaf.

Even with that information, polygraphs just measure biological stress and are straight up voodoo when it comes to determining truth vs lies.

Yoel Romero's case is literally how to prove you used contaminated substance unknowingly. Not JJ's bullshit dick pills (which they even accepted). Has JJ even explained where he got the turinabol from?

That's a leap of logic to get down to 1 year....

He got 1 year for a non-anabolic estrogen blocker. This is actual dope this time. Maybe it will be left up to the CSAC to impose the penalty, because USADA guidelines are 2 years on this if you can't prove mitigation, which he can't.

The one mitigating factor he has going is his testing was clean outside fight week-- that sounds pretty weak to me. Maybe USADA and CSAC do some mental gymnastics and turn that into a positive to his credit somehow.

Mike Tyson spoke of using powerful steroids during fight week only. He tested positive for halotestin, a real savage ass-ripping steroid used to kill people, during fight week. Its not a stretch to say Jones was using a fight-week regimen as well in the same vein as Tyson.

lot of ufc people like Rogan were saying jones might be the victim
and someone spiked something he ate/drank/took
sure there is no proof of that as law enforcement or lawyers would already be involved
could it be enough for them to give him another break?
for anyone else i would say no, but with him anything is possible

I'd be more about stripping Conor save that Khabib v. Tony would now be scheduled for a FOURTH time...maybe we'll get to see it finally.

Polygraphs are absolute garbage. It's ridiculous they're even a thing.

The only thing they're actually good for is scaring people into admitting things

Going back a couple of posts here but I remember a video from Joe Rogan's podcast talking about turinabol. In short they were saying that the stuff in turinabol (creatine) is used to cut cocaine or some shit in China, which may have been the culprit in the positive test. I probably fucked up in all of that, but China, Creatine, Cocaine.



Didn't feel like digging through the video, but ,“You want to know the craziest fucking rumor that I heard? I can’t tell you who told me this. This is the craziest one. The stuff that [Jon Jones] tested positive for takes a long time to get out of your system, right? You know where else you find that stuff? You find it in creatine. When they get creatine, sometimes from China, it’s tainted with steroids. They use that creatine to cut cocaine. One of the things they cut some cocaine with is creatine, because it looks like cocaine. So if he was partying: ‘Jon, you want to do a bump, it’s really good stuff’… ‘Hey man, I can’t test positive for anything’… ‘It’s just coke bro, it’s not even cut! He had a birthday about 10 days out from the fight.”
