[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

BLOOMFIELD, NJ – Four-time world heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield has released the following response to allegations linking him to a steroid investigation: [details]

He should come clean. If an athlete was to come forward and say "I was on steriods, sorry, wanted to win badly and felt pressured to do it" I would actually have a lot more respect for them. I think that in some ways a sports commission has a responisbility to implement proper rules and testing procedures or steriod use is inevitable. Of course all of these guys go the Rafael Palmeiro route and make fools and liars out of themselves, which it looks like Holyfield has chosen to do.

The finger pointing towards Holyfield looks pretty solid. I mean, based on the articles I've read it appears there is a very real reason to believe the information saying he was doping is verified and correct. I agree, he should just come clean. Evander isn't going to help his cause to deny it only to be proven a liar.

My first question is, what happened to the recquired banned substance testing before and after the fights?

The only way to settle the issue is for Holy to undergo a complete drug testing immediately and if proven clean, he can file a case for damages.

It's front page news as others like Jose Canseco are being accused, as well.

Its impossible to test for HGH unless its done immediatly after the dosage. So if he stops a day before the test, its undetectable.

I am sorry but Evander is one of the most hypocritical christians ever! the guy claims christian but he had to admit he fathered 9 kids out of wedlock and cheated on his wife.

are you guys gonna believe his word when he said he never took roids coming from the guy who said he never cheated on his wife before he was exposed?

evander was buff! the guy was a small heavyweight and he needed every advantage he could get.

I love evander but its obvious people named him for a reason and why would they uncover there name its to risky....

i doubt its a BS tabloid response becaue the person who sourced it linked others and they know there stuff.

I knew Holyfield had to be cheating when he beat Tyson. Holyfield was just a roided up cruiser.

Oh yeah, and buster douglas too!
