The post-fight drug test showed Jones and Hall both tested positive for androstenedione, which is a banned substance by the IBF. Androstenedione is a natural steroid hormone that was commonly available over the counter as a supplement until 2004 when the FDA made the over the counter sale of androstenedione illegal. Jones admitted to taking the product "ripped fuel" which was sold in GNC and every nutritional supplement outlet. Jones was able to keep his title and was not fined or suspended for the positive test. All of Jones' other post-fight drug tests before and after this fight came back clean. He ended the year by stopping Eric Harding in the 10th round of a one sided fight, once again successfully retaining the title.

Roy Jones Jr. and Richard Hall both tested positive for the testosterone precursor androstenedione after Jones defeated Hall to retain his undisputed world light heavyweight championship in Indianapolis in 2000. Jones insisted his test was the result of ingesting the supplement Ripped Fuel.

After Roy Jones, JR. defeated Richard Hall in 2000, both he and Hall tested positive for the androstenedione, a substance banned by the IBF. Jones admitted taking a produce named “Ripped Fuel” which contained androstenedione, a natural hormone which was available over the counter until 2004 when it was made illegal by the FDA. The IBF took a lenient stance to Jones' positive test, declining to fine or ban him and letting him keep his title.
Make of it, what you will...
He tested positive for a chemical, where at the time, it was legal to take.. and he only ever tested positive for it, in one fight...
This REED fella was a clueless homo...

...that's what PEDS can do for you;
You clearly did not follow the situation closely like I did AT THE TIME!
FACT: Murad Muhammad went to Germany to negotiate a fight in Germany between the two and DM's promoter and Universum head Klaus Peter Kohl wanted to pay DM double what they were offering Jones!
FACT: DM was scheduled to fight top 10 David Telesco on ESPN to build his brand in the US and Marty Mulcahy even showed the scheduling of the fight on his fight schedule at fight news dot com. DM pulled out because there was not enough money. This was during the time when Telesco was on a winning streak that led him to a position as a top 10 contender.
FACT: In 2001, Roy's advisor Brad Jacobs, met with Kerry Davis VP for HBO, and they tried desperately to make the fight.
Peter Kohl who was DM's advisor was never available to sit down and discuss terms. He was also never available via phone, and he wouldn't even name a figure to get the ball rolling. Eventually, HBO was able to make a 5 million offer to DM and Kohl and DM turned it down, despite the fact that DM only made 1-1.5 million per fight in Germany.
FACT: HBO also proposed the idea of a double header to hype the fight. A lot of U.S. fans had hardly seen DM fight, so HBO wanted to put both fighters on the same bill, to stir interest in a fight. This was turned down by Kohl. If DM and Kohl had been serious about a fight, they never would have turned down that opportunity. They didnt want to be on a Roy Jones card. Instead they went on to fight Hall, Harmon and De Grandis.
FACTS?
HA!
What a load of sh*t.
They are mostly lies contradicting each other.
aka robertzimmerman nonsense
That deluded clown is the biggest joke on all the forums.
If he is your source you weren't around back then let alone followed the situation closely lol
Hence you don't know what you're talking about do you.
post proper sources or stfu!
Why are Roid Jones and his fans such liars?
It shows a real lack of character.
Roid lied.
He never made one single offer to box DM.
FACT.
p.s. Telesco pulled out, not DM
I takes you half a month to come back with something and all you do is repost the azz whooping?!!
..........dayum Montell ...... I mean OP ....... I guess you really haven't been the same after taking that hook.
... that's what an azz whooping can do for you.
lol a PED powered azz whooping isn't worth a damn...
More lies...
Prompted by HBO's clueless commentator Jim Lampley, Roid Jones blatantly lies about making offers of "7 figures or considerably more" to Nigel Benn, Frankie Liles, Steve Collins, and (LOL) Vincenzo Nardiello. A complete fabrication.
Roid was always ped abuser and ducker
FACT.

Floyd fought better competition throughout his prime and only had a couple close fights. Roy toyed with mostly a bunch of cans. Roy did look good against Hopkins and Toney though. Floyd's prime lasted longer than Roy's. Roy also popped for PED's during his prime... ripped fuel supplement doe. I enjoyed both fighters but the competition difference is major for me along with Roy pissing hot.
Ripped Fuel my azz;
