UFC needs to let drug testing float into the background and make Jon Jones and Overeem (after he wins at UFC 203) into stars.
I mean, one of them is considered the greatest MMA practitioner ever, the other one is finally getting a shot at a UFC belt after more than 5 years with the organization, and loads of other kickboxing belts.
Overeem as just being a huge, stupid powerful guy has tons of promotability, Jon Jones too. Neither one of them fuks with PR in stupid ways, but are good at generating hype for their fights.
I don't know why the UFC promotes one-hit-wonders like Ronda, and pussies like Conor who can't fight at the division they should be in.

Ok.
1. Almost everybody in the UFC, especially at the top level use drugs
2. I have never understood how drug use in sports is cheating. When everybody truly is natty, the playing field is not level. Genetics are king. When everybody is on drugs, genetics are still king.
Do you even know the history of PEDs in sports and legality?
AAS (not all PEDs) was made illegal following the 1990 Anabolic Steroids Control Act. Congress illegally ordered the FDA to mark AAS as a schedule III controlled substance, without actually going through the due process the FDA takes when deciding to make a drug illegal. The FDA strongly advised them not to make AAS illegal.
The health benefits AAS and other drugs bring to athletes are enormous, especially when your sport involves being slammed into by 300 pound men every sunday, or getting your face smashed in every 4-6 months.
3. There is no miracle drug that will turn you into a pro fighter. They are all tools that allow you to recover faster, train harder, get better results from your training etc.
The anti-ped community is a poorly informed mess of politicians looking to gain approval and sheeple who can't be bothered to google search what they see on tv.

Depends on the substance I suppose. Certain substances are definitely NOT associated with cardiovascular health, and the big T does not improve tendon and ligament quality - but health is a subjective term to be honest.
All of the things you listed are beneficial for an athlete but I still wouldn't necessarily label them as health benefits. You could equally argue that the long term benefits of usage are not favourable towards health.
