Chael Sonnen is one of the most controversial figures in MMA. Since coming to the UFC, he has gone through many conflicts and dramas. He's a very WWE style fighter, who is able to pump up his fights and sell pay-per-views well. His biggest trash talking session to date has been with Anderson Silva, who he almost beat the 1st time (but lost) and lost badly the 2nd time around. In fact, when the first fight between Chael Sonnen and Anderson Silva happened, Chael was the only guy in the UFC to have pretty much beaten Silva only to lose in the last 2 minutes of the round to a choke submission. Average judge score for the fight was 40-35 in favor of Chael going into the end of the 5th round, until he got submitted.
After the fight, drug testing was done on both him and Silva. Chael Sonnen tested high for testosterone levels, his T/E ratio was 16.9:1. For TRT usage, the ratio is usually 4:1, so this was a clear indication of steroid use. He was fined and suspended by the California State Athletic Commission (CSAC). Sonnen decided to appeal the decision and was in court on 12/02/2010. He stated that he had hypogonadism and was using TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) to remedy the problem. However, he did not apply for a TRT exemption nor was he approved to use any testosterone; therefore, the suspension was upheld and Sonnen had to admit to doping.
In June 2014, Chael Sonnen once again failed a drug test. This time he had HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin), Anastrozole (Arimidex) and Clomiphene (Clomid) in his system. The testosterone levels aren't clear in the initial press release. His July 5th, 2004 fight against Vitor Belfort, who also failed a drug test, will be canceled.
A lot of guys right now are very curious what steroids or products Chael Sonnen could have used besides the SERMs (clomid) and aromatase inhibitors (arimidex), and what was he really recovering from. Was it really testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) or was it a full blown steroid cycle? Well, since we know he did use testosterone injections, let's put together 2 cycles for Mr. Sonnen. First cycle will be based on what he's tested positive for already, the second steroid cycle will be what we are guessing he might be using and hiding by doing PCT before the fight.
