    This is true, so we will wait and see.

    Like I said, BO came out real fast and defended his name and said he had no problem with making his medical records public or any information at that.


    However, some people just blow it off because that is their nature. They also can figure that if they attack back that people will assume that "oh, he must be guilty because that is what a liar would do, attack back out of fustration"

    It's sometimes a lose-lose situation. If you attack back, your guilty. If you don't attack back, you are guilty.

      who gives a damn about all that. it's how the guy performs inside the ring you should worry about. not who he's ****ing. dude, you have a dumb ass way of thinking.

      "Yeah,it's okay for Mike to bite this guy's leg, break this guy's arm, and bite this guy's ear, all while grabbing his **** in the process and saying 4 letter words, cuz he's forward, and honest about it. He doesn't hide himself like evander,and **** women behind his wife's back. **** that dude evander, the truth is that I'm mad at him for making mike his ***** both times they ever met in the ring."

      did I miss anything? youve illustrated your thought process as blueprinted above...welcome to my dip**** of the week award.
      I never won anything and I can't be happier. Atleast I am honest about my dislike of Evander. You got to give me that much.

        I think Holyfield has some serious issues:

        Isn't this the same guy that when he was a kid was benched on his football team because he was to "skinny"

        So he gets into boxing. He proves his worth, but people have doubts so he goes on a program to gain weight to become a heavyweight.


        Now, he could just be a determined Motha ****a, which is quite possible since there are many examples of this, but guys that get **** on for feeling not like a man because they are undersized could...

        Tyson, the guy was picked out of the lot at 12, much different story. However, with him, he did have high paying handlers that hoped he would be the future so...

        Anything is possible. I will wait and here what Tyson says in response. I am just not sure he even cares at this point. He just seems so mellow at times and who knows what he thinks these days.


        NOW I KNOW WHY TYSON WENT CRAZY AFTER HE BIT HOLYFIELD, HE INGESTED HOLYFIELDS STEROID FILLED BLOOD

          It enhances endurance and strength, but not fundamental ability and overwhelming qualities that Holyfield has, like taking a great shot, and incredible drive and heart like we seen in the first Bowe fight, and his drive to keep going in the face of adversity. There's nothing wrong with highlighting the guy's flaws, of course he has flaws, personal and professional, but to completely discredit a man like Holyfield, who has shown almost superhuman qualities at times, is just very biased and hateful.

          If someone had a drug that gave someone the qualities of Evander Holyfield, they'd be very very rich. Some qualities cannot be bought.

              the qualities were still enhanced, but yes, I agree to a point. It is not like you can take any bodybuilding juice-head out there and make him a boxer.

              Most athletes do seem to agree that the biggest benefit is recovery more than their "want" to get the edge. But maybe that is the excuse since Olympic Athletes are obviously using them to get the edge.

              Either way, the point I think you are trying to make is if it was so easy, everybody would use steroids and everybody would be "Great"

              Like the old saying in baseball goes, "If you ain't cheating, you ain't trying"

                One of the most determined athletes I have ever witnessed.

                  IS THERE FRIDAY NIGHT FIGHTS THIS WEEK?

                  IF SO, ATLAS WOULD BE ASKED BY BRIAN KENNY.

                  I am not sure how Atlas would be anyway, but an opinion would be heard.

                  I also wonder if Rooney will get a call, as well as Tyson of course.



                  I am a big Tyson fan, but anything is possible, but will give him the benefit of the doubt.

                    That will be interesting. Can't steroids cause an elargement of the heart? I remember some guy who had that once. His name escapes me at the moment.
