Comments Thread For: Algieri on Benn's Positive Test: Not Surprised, I Heard Rumors He Wasn't a Clean Fighter

Let's walk through this.....

One guy trains super duper hard.
Has an insane physique
No roids/peds.
His power is true game changer.

His opponent is a fat slob.

Fat slob wins.....by KO.
And KO is not his go to way of winning.
Happened at least a few times recently.

Hmmm....

How about this scenario.....

Again, you have a guy who is all in 100000%
Training camp immortal.
Gets KO'd in rd 1 by a pillow puncher....

I can give you logical hypotheticals but I;m hoping you get the picture.

So yeah. ''really''

Added bonus

What's worse -
A natural boxer bashing on a no hoper or fighting a roider

So, cutting to the chase, you really are saying that taking performance enhancing drugs offers no advantages in terms of performance?

Mentally it can help a boxer feel as if he's in his best fighting condition.
There is no proof great conditioning alone is an advantage.

Now it's your turn....

Better or worse -
Hopeless mismatches or one guy is roided.

Hahaha, very good.

Except, for clarity, yours is a yes or no; you either believe performance enhancing drugs (the clue is in what they're "titled") offer an advantage or you don't. It doesn't matter what that advantage is, if it's via prohibited drugs it's an unfair one.

I'm not quite understanding how your own question relates to Benn taking ped's? But, for what it's worth, neither hopeless mismatches or roided up fighters are good - there is no better it worse.

However, we're going nowhere with this as our opinions regarding Peds in boxing obviously differ so I'm out from here on.

Thanks.
