Which is why, as a fighter, you can't just half-ass the training and prep, like Manny did against Horn. Every opponent must be seen as a danger especially on their home turf.
It gives newfound respect to Devin Haney for what he did and to Spence when he went to beat Brook.

Seriously, I'm so sick Ima never going to watch boxing again. This disgusts me. It isn't the sport I've always followed. I'm gonna stop watching it. Between the weight crashing & the PEDs it has become evil. There is no space for skills, its all about being bigger & stronger than the other guy by all means necessary. I'm through, I quit. I'll never watch this 'sport' again & I'll never post on here again. I used to love & admire boxing & boxers but .... its over. You'll find me on Cricinfo & bleating about how awful Villa are but, Boxing, never no more, man, through.MinuteMaid5 likes this.

Algieri commented that he beat unclean fighters b4. So that means when he got smashed by Benn, it wasn't the drugs. It was his fists. If you have beaten unclean fighters b4, that means cheating doesn't guarantee anyone a win. If it were that simple, anyone with drugs could dominate the sport, but as Algieiri pointed out, cheaters lose to clean fighters too. Benn was just much better and therefore, he kicked his narrow ass, and that's just how the cookie crumbled on that one.Boxviewer likes this.

Originally posted by Ragga1 View PostYou hear so many pro’s say that boxing is littered with drug cheats, Pauline Malignaggi is pretty open with his view that Manny Pacquiao was a big PED user through his career. Fury and Canelo have got away with it massively, which makes it worth the risk. Look at Jarrell Miller, he should be banned for life but he’s still fighting professionally.
Algieri says he's beaten dirty fighters but doesn't name them.

Stimulants and weight shedding drugs have been around since the early 80's. Ali's camp openly talked about giving him drugs to drop weight and Panama Lewis was accused of giving a stimulant to Aaron Pryor in the first Arguello fight.
Boxing has always been a dirty fight between the ropes and outside the ropes with fixing of judging, fixing of fights and crass manipulation of the boxing public.

You know what, his skills aren’t that bad for a guy that wasn’t an amateur.
Not terribly skilled at cycling off, but otherwise.
Didn't Benn have 20+ amateur fights?P to the J likes this.

Especially with that version of Kell Brook who was seemingly nigh unstoppable at a point with the most perfect physique in the business short of Tim Bradley.
