Reavant/Everyone Else: What do you think of steroids in MMA

What percentage of the guys on the amateur circuit do you think are on some kind of steroid or PED? Does that bother you at all? How unfair of an advantage do you think it gives your opponent? How would you punish guys who are caught?

I was asking Reavant since he actually fights, but anyone can jump in. I think at some point, Dana is going to have to come up with a policy other than "the commissions test and punish these guys so there's nothing more I can do."

If/when MMA overtakes boxing and becomes even more mainstream, incidents where top guys fail drug tests are going to get eaten up by bottom feeders like ESPN that love a scandal and political opponents of the sport.

I'm a huge fan of Thiago Silva, but when you look at what he did to get away with cheating and the fact that it cost Vera his job and nose temporarily, I can't help but wonder if the guy should be suspended for longer than a year.
