RE: Anthony ‘Rumble’ Johnson admits “I was never a fighter”, quits the UFC to sell medical marijuana?

in #ufc8 years ago

I never understood who could really ENJOY staying in the ring being beaten up and I fully understand how weed helped him. I for instance smoke after most of my training, since they are way too long and exhausting. I stopped for like 3 months before World Ultimate Championship, because there were supposed to be some anti-doping tests. It was my passion and hard work which got me where I’m, not weed (that is helping me only mentally, which as far as I’m concerned shouldn’t be a problem…Sportsman are just people too and they deserve to be happy using any instrument they wish that isn’t directly boosting they physical abilities). The whole “sports against drugs” thingy (like weed was a drug) is so outdated and as the NFL article proves, it only lead to taking not-prohibited chemical drugs. I hope for all the NFL athletes that the prohibitions ends for them. If it will, maybe it will serve as an example for the rest of the sport associations! And that will affect my future too, so I highly approve!
