Honestly? Yeah, he definitely looks smaller from those 2 pictures that were originally posted, which is why I found and posted some pictures of him actually at 155. To me, it looks like he might be a little tiny bit smaller. But show me more than one picture of him now. That is like saying that a girl is hot based off of one picture. It was likely selected because it makes the best case for someone's point, which judging by the captions was their obvious intentions. They found the biggest baddest picture they could of Sherk in another weight class, and the smallest looking picture they could of him, and labeled them with roids and non-roided.

It's not impossible. It is semi-common in higher level athletes.

In the body, nandrolone is converted into 19-norandrosterone and it is this compound that drug testing centres look for. The International Olympic Committee have set a limit of two nanograms (0.000 000 002g) per millilitre in urine samples. But a study has since shown that normal people can have a small but significant level in their bodies - 0.000 000 000 6 grams per millilitre of urine. This is awfully close and it is also known that some legal dietary supplements are metabolized quite innocently into 19-norandrosterone. In fact in July 2003, 43 ATP players were exonerated after "positive" nandrolone tests when they all drank a certain electrolyte drink given by official ATP trainers.

Are you not seeing that? Aside from everything else, it has been documented that legal dietary suppliments are metabolized into the same bi-product that they use to detect that particular steroid.
I am sure we will have a better idea come weigh-ins and fight night, but to me, so far, those pictures prove nothing but someones bias.
