Jake Shields Admits To Using PED’s In Public Statement Released Today | UFC NEWS

Authentic Sports Management today issued the following statement on behalf of UFC athlete Jake Shields:
“To my friends, fans and the UFC,
Prior to my professional bout at UFC 150 in Denver, Colorado, I used a substance prohibited by Colorado Boxing Commission rules.
This was a mistake that I fully regret. I have shared this issue with my family and the UFC and I have apologized to them and now I also apologize to you, the fans. I promise this will never occur again in my fighting career.
I accept the Boxing Commission’s decision for a six-month suspension, which will expire in February. I ask that you accept my apology. I will be back fighting soon, and hope that the fans of MMA will support me until that time.”

Whaaaat
No where does in his statement does Shields say took PED’s just that a banned substance. Forrest admitted to taking Xanax and received a suspension. A “banned substance” isn’t always performance enhancing. Im not even a Shields fan but this is worse than tabloids.
Damn, site should of stayed down longer since they still report misleading information. PED’s???? Haven’t read that yet anywhere, including here besides the far reachin title…

Somebody save BJPENN.COM
If only all cheaters would be so brave!!! LMAO!!!
He wasn’t cheating he was smoking that ganja with the daiz brothers.
How come nick Diaz gets punished so hard but everyone else gets kept quiet and then gets a smack on the wrist. I swear the UFC is biased and becoming corrupted
