Athletistic/MMA. Former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva has shared his opinion on doping in mixed martial arts. The Brazilian believes that the use of banned drugs should be allowed in MMA.

“The type of training that an MMA fighter undergoes is very different from that of a representative of any other type of martial arts. MMA fighters put themselves in extreme conditions. You have to train in boxing, wrestling, jiu-jitsu, and also general physical training.

Promoter Arum spoke about Fury vs. Usik fight

There was a time when we were all hurt. If you take something as prescribed by a doctor and are under his or her control, you will not be harmed. I think it won’t affect performance. I think it is necessary to do a doping control the week of the fight. And so – when training at the highest level, it is impossible not to get injured during preparation,” BloodyElbow quotes Silva.
