Shane Carwin’s public response on steroid scandal involves remarks to Roy Nelson
By Zach Arnold | August 17, 2010

Here’s Roy Nelson from 8/14:

Just woke up and was reading the mma news websites and only one had real news ufc champ shane carwin steroids court case.

I am surprised that athletes in mma do steroids ;( that explains body types.

Let see if real news sources investigate the steroid claims, mmajunkie, mmaweekly, sherdog, espn, etc I like good news.

Article is cagepotato.com.
_____
Jason Genet, the manager of Shane Carwin who said that his client would release a statement on the matter pertaining to him being named in a steroid investigation in Mobile, Alabama, said the following on his Twitter account:

I love Roy Nelson trying to elevate his status by talking smacks. Hopefully he is doing so on a treadmil. Some have rolls he has a bakery.

How does going after Roy Nelson on Twitter address the matter of being named in a Federal investigation for steroids?

Mr. Smith, you are consistently one of my favorite lockflow posters. Level headed, well thought and not baffled by bull$#!*.

As you mentioned, Carwin has done nothing but put forth the two most common fallacies. Begging the question and ad hominem. By begging the question he is forced to admit guilt, and ad hominem just makes him look bad.

I am interested to see how this all plays out. How thorough will this investigation really be and who else will be implicated.
Attacking Roy Nelson does absolutely nothing but make Carwin look worse in light of the allegations.

Bulleteater, thanks for the compliment. All I do is look for the articles.

You would think that Carwin's people would do more to draw less attetion to themselves. No matter how this turns out, they are making him look bad. I agree with you Afro, this only makes him look worse.

Almost like pro wrestling but on an almost existential level. Trying to get fights outside of the ufc universe.

Was looking at Twitter last night and the latest salvo from Carwin is: "Some people have a roll...Roy Nelson has a whole bakery" Laughing out loud

But, yeah...Carwin needs to lay low during this
