Was Peterson using PEDs for the Holt fight?

Fx13y ago

We know that he used PEDs in the Khan fight because of the additional testing which was performed for the rematch. Peterson later admitted he used PEDs for the first fight after the drugs were discovered in the rematch testing. But the conventional testing in the first fight didn't uncover the drug usage - it was only discovered when extensive random testing was performed for the rematch. For the Holt fight there was only conventional testing (extensive testing wasn't used) so do you think Peterson was back on the juice again for the Holt fight? Here is the boxing scene story which shows that Holt would have preferred extensive testing but still took the fight even though Peterson wasn't willing to do the required extensive testing : http://www.boxingscene.com/holt-not-worried-not-thinking-about-petersons-ped-past--62652

Hope this is a little lesson for those who take the 'misleading doctor' excuse seriously.

I think he's using and has no fear getting caught in his hometown since the DC commission has protected him in the past. Anyways, they should just legalize PEDs. Prophetic post right here. Looks like the majority wasn't fooled. F*ck this cheating b*tch.

maybe ..maybe not..lets take a step back & look at the big picture..LP was using peds for karn..how the hell does can he remain a world champion when hes been proven to cheat, he should have been striped of the title, my guess is hes up to no good as he done it before. He was stripped by the WBA but not by the IBF. I've heard in the past that the IBF are a somewhat "racist" organization headed by a president who is African-American. They probably sided with Peterson based on his background when in reality it was a no-brainer that he should have been stripped of the title because he openly admitted that he used PEDs for the Khan fight, after the fact. I'm pretty sure that if the situation was reversed and Khan had been caught then the IBF would have stripped him.

It looked like it to me, but I guess we'll never know considering Golden Boy will just keep the results a secret if he did test positive.

His testosterone levels were at a ratio of 4:1, the normal being 1:1 it varies a little depending on the race. So how is having four times as much as normal testosterone normal, especially when he made it just below the levels that can be detected by normal tests? He is guilty as sin, a disgrace to boxing. looks at sigs.....nevermind.....

According to Dan Rafeal Peterson made on $37,000 for this fight. Testing alone would have cost more than that. Its possible, but Peterson would have to be an idiot to use anything in his first fight back against a guy he was heavily favored against.

His T/E wasn't abnormal, to claim he was cheating against Khan is simply untrue. The random tests found synthetic testosterone in his system, but it did show that his T/E ratio was not being increased from the usage. It indeed does seem as if his natural testosterone levels were lower than a normal athlete for his age His T/E was 3.77:1. Normal is 1:1. Where is the evidence that his T levels are low apart from him saying it? He had a banned substance in his system, no matter what way you look at it. I know we're supposed to believe the "I swear it was the first time I tried it" line, but when you think about it, the very first time he underwent a test that could actually detect synthetic testosterone he was caught with it. Just a coincidence, or had he being doing this shit for years?

No I don't believe he was. People say "its obvious from the 4th round on"...there goes logic for you. I believe Peterson adapted and found a way to win

Yes, he was actually even injecting himself some testosterone between rounds. I heard some forms of testosterone pellets are inserted into the anus so it's lucky the ring post was hiding his ass.
