20 1982.(Reporting by Lucia Mutikani; Editing by Chizu Nomiyama) Bonds. I posted this at The Curtis and Kyle Show and thought you guys would like to check it out as well! Easy killer! First and foremost, I am not saying that Brock Lesnar took steroids, not in any shape or fashion. Brock Lesnar is very sick! It has been blogged to death all over the internet. Writers have cited WebMD, random doctors, and tons of websites about his condition.People have dragged this story from one extreme to another and back again. Here is the deal, he is sick! He may recover and fight, he may not! We do not know as of right now, but what we do know is that the use of steroids has been medically proven to delay or mask symptoms of his disease. This may have nothing to do with anything, but…Again, not saying he is/was/or has juiced…When I was browsing the internet earlier I came across a post on the Sportsbybrooks website located here . It must be noted that this is a very popular website seen by many sports fans that do not watch MMA or the UFC. They know of Brock Lesnar, but they don’t understand him or the sport (many not all). Sports by Brooks is a great site and I am not hating on them one bit.On their site they stated this:“I’m by no means accusing Brock Lesnar of doing steroids, but a quick check on the diagnosis of diverticulitis reveals that steroid use can sometimes play a significant role in masking early symptoms.In 2003, the New Zealand Medical Journal reported , “One of the lesser known but most life-threatening gastrointestinal side effects of steroids is the perforation of colonic diverticula.”Meanwhile, in 2005, Holly Salzman, M.D., and Dustin Lillie, M.D. of the University of California, San Diego, School of Medicine reported in their article Diverticular Disease: Diagnosis and Treatment: “Steroids also may mask symptoms (of Diverticulitis) and delay appropriate therapy.”Now, I have said several times that I am not saying he is juicing. However, if it comes out that Brock has taken ‘roids, then any credibility that he has gained will be instantly lost. Since day one he hasaggressively denied the use of performance enhancing drugs, even walking out of interviews and punching holes in walls.I for one am not a Brock fan. That being said, this is not the way I want to see him go out. He is the champion that everyone roots loves or loves to hate. Know one knows if he will indeed forfeit his title in the future, but if he does it will be a sad day. If he is going to be dethroned from the king of the mountain, it should be at the hands of another fighter.Either way the UFC will rebound. No fighter in the world isirreplaceable. For every Matt Hughes there is a GSP, for every Chuck Liddell there is a Lyoto Machida, and for every Brock Lesnar there is someone…who we will see in the future.I also want to add that I think what Shame Carwin did after hearing the news needs more attention! Here is the link to his post on The UG . It was beyond a classy move, kudos to Mr Carwin!.
