Yes, he could be juicing, but on the other hand he is not that big, has basically always been ripped and built like a fighter, and I think he is Italian, which means he should be happy his hair has lasted this long.

Ok, so maybe not all Italians go bald, but there are many that do.

I bet a lot of Italians have high testosterone to begin with, then add the DHT increase when they hit 25, you have a formula for baldness.

And how come we are still on this "everybody that has muscles and is in shape is on steroids"? This is crazy. Yes, many people are juicing, but it is not that hard if you have decent, let alone good or great genes.

Look a "Natural" bodybuilder, no steroids, but I am sure many will somehow figure out a way of accusing him of it.


People really need to get off their asses and go to the gym or do something productive that builds muscles.

Once you have a foundation, it is really not hard to keep muscle on or even grow it back if you lose it from injury or starving yourself.

People are picking on the Fear Factor Guy because of what he said about boxing, but we have to remember that he is a comedian, maybe not a funny one, but when he said "boxing is being swallowed", I laughed.
The only sport I see swallowing is the MMA fighters when they are down on the ground, rolling around, blowing eachother.
Kidding, but you get my point. Joe needs to keep quite.

Yes, I agree with some of the things Joe and Dana say, but in the end it is boxing's fault for not responding with making things better.


I know a lot more people that would rather watch two guys slug it out with their fists instead of the grappling that goes on in MMA. I appreciate the skill in grappling, but I and many others like the striking instead.


Boxing needs to go back to the original gloves size or whatever size they were in the "Golden Age"; stop the corruption and clean up.

If the sport keeps growing like it is the fighters will be making the same amount.

Boxers should start to worry that if their fights are deemed boring that they will not make the amount they are currently making.

ESPN has started to cover UFC and wasn't there an article about UFC being close to a deal on HBO.

Boxers make a lot of money because of fan sport, which equals television and commerical support. If boxing declines they will lose the support which means they will make less. Just look at the NHL, where are they now?

Boxing needs to shape up and quickly.


UFC is not a "Fad": like somebody already mentioned, as long as there are Martial Artists out there that want to make a living fighting, and fans willing to watch, there will be UFC/MMA.

I know of more Karate schools and people studying Martial Arts than I do of kids going to boxing schools; add wrestling to the mix, that is an advantage.



It is times like this that I wish the old days of boxing would come back. The days of many gyms, kids wanting to be like Joe Louis, and just great fights with fighters wanting to face the best. Of course I would like the corruption to end, but you get my point.
