    Roy Jones 100% used undetectable anabolic steroids in the past.
    Again, wasn't it legal at the time? Is he to ***e for that?

      Guess what. I think all the big guns use it. I cannot proove it of course. It first entered my mind when I saw the (I hate to bring this up so please excuse me) Eubank-Watson fight. I watched it live and I remember I thought it was incredible that these to guys could throw so many punches, absorb that level of punishment and still be able to bounce around when the fight entered the championship rounds. Either the conditioning was extraordinary exeptionel or.............

      And I've seen it many times since. But I guess if both fighters does it and are aware of the risk then it might be a bit easier to swallow. The sanctioning bodies does however need to make a much greater commitment on drug abuse with some research and some out-of-competition testing.

        People like David Haye, Holyfield and Roy Jones are the most likely to have used steroids. David Haye has gained 30lbs of muscle in six months? You have to wonder. And Roy gaining a lot of muscle for the step to heavyweight in his mid-30s is somewhat unusual.

        Having said that, these guys probably have good genetics, based upon their success at boxing, and they probably spend a lot of time working on it and a lot of money on hiring nutritionalists etc. that the average person couldn't afford. I'm pretty certain than Evan Fields used steroids though.

            You guys asking me to 'prove it' is pretty silly, because it's just obvious things you can't see for yourself. It's very obvious...So many fighters do it, it's not even funny, me personally, I have never done steroids and do not care to.. However, alot of other pros, even lower level guys you never hear about, do em...

            Just off the top of my head, guys that used em I know for a fact (regardless if you agree)

            Holyfield
            Jones
            Toney
            Both Klitschko
            Jorge Arce
            Tyson
            T. Morrison
            Razor Ruddock
            Edison Miranda
            Tye Fields
            Golata
            Paciauo
            Guzman
            list goes on and on...just because they're lighter weight doesn't mean they haven't done it

            Delahoya, Mayweather, Hatton, Cotto...

            All those guys have more than likely done some type of illegal substance, hgh or steroids...


            As for as detection, there are ways around that. Easy ways.

            One of them is to time the cycle you do the drug in, get your body improved, get it out of your system The other is something called a wizzinator. it's basically a fake **** that looks extremely realistic, that pisses synthetic urine that passes any government or job piss test.

              ... Its sad, Especially when you want to box yourself.

              Makes you wonder what you get introduced to in the pro game.

                no, what's ignorant is not realizing and understanding that there are steroids and illegal substances that benefit smaller lighterweight fighters VASTLY, not all illegal **** is for gaining mass/wt.

                  Or they just generally don't test for it?

                  Where can i get some?

                  HGH won't show up in a urine test like steroids and recreational drugs. You need to take a blood test, and so far no commission in boxing does that.

                      There are many forms of steroids that can't be detected or can't be detected after a short period of time.

                      Cyclists have been known use a similar form of steroids that enhances your endurance and leaves your system in the matter of days.

                      This is nothing new.
