Pro fighters react to TRT ban in Nevada

With Thursday's landmark decision by the Nevada State Athletic Commision to ban TRT, many fighters jumped to Twitter to react to the ruling.

Very happy to see TRT banned, absolutely a ridiculous idea to start with and a major factor of my personal retirement from fighting

No more TRT? Good.Sports shouldn't be on a level playing field based on genetics and hard work. This is a huge step in the right direction.

So TRT is now officially banned in Nevada. U could argue I only have one loss on my record. After I beat Kennedy I want my shot at the title

The Nevada State Athletic Commission banned testosterone. It is a great day for the sport. I hope all states follow suit. #TRT

TRT is finally banned, now we can only hope that 1 day we will have Olympic level drug screening in MMA. So we can catch the EPO, HGH users

I’m okay with the Nevada Commission banning TRT… But if they start checking ice cream levels I am going to be really upset. #MMA #UFC @ufc

Nevada just banned the use of synthetic testosterone for fighters. Shit just got real. Literally.
