    LOL this is what I was about to say.

    Altho using this same logic Toney might have been legit innocent just too lazy or sloppy to report or hell maybe even know he was using a steroid, iirc, for a legit injury. That said if you are caught not disclosing things you are using for legit reasons thats on you.

    That said to me this PED sh^t is just paperwork now so I'm not invested in the "cheater" culture ppl love to promote & talk about so regardless of if Toney knew or didn't it is what it is.

      You do realize Toney was caught juicing twice?

        I just remember the one time when he had some type of arm injury or something from a previous bout. When was the other?

        In fairness like I said I'm not invested in who's juicing like some of you guys so my bad at not logging all his abuses.

          I know he tested positive for the John Ruiz fight.

          What was the other one?

              Don't think so.

              The excuse he used for testing positive for Ruiz was that he was given drugs for an arm injury suffered in the Booker fight but I don't recall any positive PED tests for that fight with Booker.

                It was the Danny Batchelder fight, in 2007.

                  Some context:

                  Three division champion James "Lights Out" Toney (69-6-3), 38, has once again tested positive for steroids.


                  Gotta love that "in a rare OCCURANCE" at the beginning of the second paragraph

                      Damn it, how do I miss this stuff?

                      So there you go Toney failed twice.

                      _Rexy_ Are you going to defend your position thet Toney only used once and got caught despite the fact he failed twice (for the same drug)?
