Ben Rothwell called Antonio Silva a "punching bag", but the Brazilian heavyweight won’t respond him -- for now.
Riding a three-fight finishing streak, capped off by a first-round submission over Brendan Schaub at UFC Fight Night 68, Rothwell spoke with Ariel Helwani on The MMA Hour about the effects on the banning of testosterone replacement therapy in MMA, saying that fighters who won on TRT won’t perform like they used to.
"I think one of the reasons they gave me that fight, was people thought I was going to be a tomato can because I had to come off TRT," Rothwell said.
