    I can't believe in this day and age people don't show respect for fighters that put their lives on the line. PATHETIC.

      how can u when 1 is getting an advantage from using steroids ,RJJ got knocked out when he stopped taking steroids

        u know what pisses me off is the lack of Respect shown to Joe after another masterfull performance some are discrediting Kessler and i know its only because he is not American, put it this way if RJJ was British & we claimed him to be the best p4p ever in the world after beign knocked out twice we would get laughed out of town and ridiculed to **** guaranteed
        I haven't seen anyone disrespect Joe after that performance against Kessler. I was the first to give him credit you can read my threads about it.

            Some people are ignorant and that isn't the way it should be at all. Joe put on a great performance and deserves all the credit in the world for it. You could go both ways though if Roy was british and has done what he has in his career YOU would be defending him to no end.

              Judging by the fact that he is not in prison, I would say that his steroid use has not been proven. So again I ask, based on their abilities in the ring...

                    It just came out that Mosley "unknowingly" took steroids like 3 weeks ago. Toney failed because of prescribed steroids. You can't be prosecuted for either. If Roy tested positive (allegedly) in 2000, why has there been no talk or action taken? Most likely because there isn't a very good case. In America you are innocent until PROVEN guilty. So again I ask, based on their IN-RING ABILITY....

                      well u dont know the in and outs there is not smoke without fire ,Mosley unknowingly yeah according to him

                      no mention of Evans Field i see

                      even if their is no evidence it does'nt mean u are no guilty it just means u cant be tried

                      as for Toney i dont know the ins and outs of it but i suspect your are omitting some detail into it to suit your argument


                      Holyfield,RJJ ,Toney ,Mosley all coincidences yeah im wiht u LMFAO
