Illegal, substance to increase performance?
The entire heavyweight division- i'll bet a good 80 percent of pro boxers take something for weight cuts alone.
I think the NFL is the same. Fans should understand this before they crucify someone who is found using steroids.
Serious question, Joe. Does this apply to Pacquaio as well for you? He never failed a test in his entire career...yet the majority here has already indicted him.
Yes it does. I never accused Pacquiao of cheating but when he refused random testing he made himself look very suspicious.
The fighters taking and passing random drug test shouldn't be accused of cheating when they're passing the test.
Until they fail a test you can't accuse them of that based on assumptions.

I agree. DO you know what kind of testing Wilders camp does? Why are they suddenly catching everyone?
He is WBC champ so I assume he undergoes their year-round VADA testing. I think if you cycle the PED's and have a vague idea of when you will likely be tested, it's easy to cheat the system. Not possible or at least more difficult with year-round random testing.
Lol who tf cares? As you said my favorite fighter is likely taking something which means everyone is likely taking something. That makes it a LEVEL playing field doesnt it? Great thread bro
both fighters take the same tests so both fighters can get away with the same performance enhancers. This is how pro sports work. Deal with it!
Sound like a fùcking idiot long enough and get put on 50% of the boards ignore list, then nobody will listen to you.
Jacobs coming back from cancer overnight? Get the fùck out of here you ignorant fùcktard.
I think danny jacobs uses something....Yes, I think it's true.
yes. they all are these days. Do you remember how shot everyone was by 35 all through the 90s. now days guys are in their 40s and still going. you think protein shakes got that much better in the last 20 years?
People also have to remember that many athletes take legal nutrition supplements that will do wonders for you in training.
Creatine is a popular one because it's very effective when it comes to increasing muscle strength, power and size and your overall athletic performance. I believe beta-alanine is another legal suppliment that many athletes take that is just as good as creatine. There are many legal suppliments that are out there on the market you just have to make sure they aren't on WADA's banned list.
what about if you had a prescription for adderral for ADHD. Does vada let that fly?
They shouldn't, it's anphetimine salts and a true diaretic. If used properly can increase endurance as well.
I know americn olympic athletes had a pass for adderrall which was COMPLETELY messed up
I can and will. I think with proper testing, more than half the boxing roster would test positive.
Ariza already has said similar things in the past.
I mean ****, peter quillin asking him for steroids like he was asking to borrow his boat for the weekend....
All the bacne in the lower weight classes. Hulkez, pacman with ariza, danny jacobs coming back from cancer over night.
I think most boxers take stuff for the weight cuts.

Yup, it's all sports. MLB has a rich doping history. NBA flies under the radar because brain injuries aren't likely, but don't be fooled - it's everywhere.
VADA is year-round and was implemented 2 years ago (aka no cycling). Not surprised if we see either 1. more boxers getting popped or 2. a sudden decline in WBC champs

yes its just the truth, lots of athletes use PEDs, and just because they havent been caught doesnt mean they are clean, thats what ped masking is for.
id say 50/50 chance any fighter doing something
im even a big floyd fan and admit that his testing is very suspicious, he announced opponents late and literally gets to decide when the testing begins for a camp, he basically owns USADA
That's a great way to justify cheating...."Well, who cares everyone is doing it"
It's the domino effect and it's real. Just ask cyclists and olympic athletes, once they find out some of their competition use a performance enhancing substance, they mentally can't cope with the advantage and seek out the drugs themselves.
