Karo why would you take painkillers before the day of fight knowing they were on the banned list. Every fighter knows what medications etc. are on the banned list. You know they test you pre fight or after. Stupid and careless mistakes lead suspensions. You left out a big gap in that video conversation.

3. Steroid users got off easily which is fucking ridiclouse and that shit is enhancing performance not pain killers since it makes you more drowsy and he only took once!! Can’t wait for him to fight he’s all pure talent!!!! WAR KARO!!!!

1. Yes you’re right! He’s been fighting since he was 14 with grown ass man when no one was in proffesional MMA at that age!! 2. Why would he quit???? He was pissed and had anxiety cause of all the fines and pressure!! wanted Suspending a guy for pain killers for a TORN HAMSTRING that everyone knows was completely BULLSHIT for 9 months!

Definitely Karo is not a friend of Karo. Hope he straightens out his life.

This guy has been fighting MMA and fighting adults since he was 15 or 16 years old. Way too young. He is beat up emotionally and physically. He quit a UFC fight the day before the weigh in b/c he’s still addicted to several drugs. . . it’s worse than using steroids to enhance performance. It will ruin Karo the person. . . not just his career. Too bad b/c he’s a talent.

Karo’s resume speaks way louder!! He just needs to straighten things out cause he’s always entertaining to watch even took mma whole new level with his unique style!! WAR KARO!!!!

His been excititng is all of his fights!! Why don’t you go back and watch all of his fights excluding his last fight when, other fighters like sherk and fitch who are lay and pray are delivering boring ass fights in all of their careers!!! Just one throw from karo is 10 times excititng than watching fighters like sherk lay and pray 3 rounds!!!

This guy is tough , but you know what you blew it man , you fucked the system and it just fucked you back , on to strikeforce , but he has not been exciting to watch at all .

A very close source mentioned that karo was fucking ready to fight was more pissed of cause of the fine that keizer wanted to take out of his fighting pay and that’s what made karo flip and had anxiety!! People need to get their facts!! straight!!! One of the most talented fighter’s who represents JUDO throws like a fucking KING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

karo scared?? lmfaooooooo dude karo has faced tougher opponents has beaten top level bjj fighters and would have tossed dustin like a ragdoll dustin had NOTHING on karo!! Not fighting for 9 months and getting suspended for painkillers which was perscribed, played a huge impact on his carrer when steroid users got off easily!!
Comment by IN5YOUR5FACE5 — February 4, 2010 @ 12:10 am
I remember seeing an interview about how he prepares for his fights. He did mention that he did get panic attacks before his fight for being overwelmed. Poor guy! I wish him a great comeback!!

Comment by IN5YOUR5FACE5 — February 4, 2010 @ 6:19 am
lol First of all he doesn’t have mental problems you stupid retard. . You’re fucking delusional I know the guy as well and he he’s one of the BEST instructors along as one of the most skilled and talented fighters out there!! His torn hamstring caused everything when he took perscribed pills RETARDS!! lol His not an addict unlike other motherfcukers taking steroids and shit!! So Tell you little girlfriend to get his head examine!!! Karo is the SHIT!! Fucking interent gangsters!!! lol
Comment by IN5YOUR5FACE5 — February 4, 2010 @ 6:53 am
I think Karo should stop fighting. I dont think another organization is going to give him a chance to get out of another main event. So maybe his only chance is to go to a small fighting organization first. If not, he should open his own mma gym and teach people how to fight. He’s charismatic and educated enough to teach others how to do judo or bjj. He’ll make his money through gyms.
