I'm wondering how you could possibly know that.

For starters, if you’re actually wondering and not just arguing for the sake of it, there’s a book called The Mitchell Report, which name drops 89 baseball players that used or were using illegal substances (at the time) in the late 90s to mid 2000s.

The 89 players wasn’t an exhaustive list. The 89 players were just the big names of MLB.

That’s if you’re interested.

And how would you know that's more than use or used in Boxing?

Roids in any sport* gets too much credit
Too many roiders lost the fight where they roided in.

Roids do not improve hand eye coordination or reflexes.

Strength and recovery
Not so much punch resistance


*Are bodybuilding and rasslin' sports ?

IronDanHamza,

No one in their right mind would argue against this. MLB had the most reported, most infamous cases of steroid abuse. Even the one’s that were passing tests were caught.

This has not happened in boxing.

It was the biggest in sports. Boxing is not there yet. You seem to love to argue about the most mundane things. Like a contrarian of some sort.

Boxing hasn’t had its big PED bust like baseball did. It gets some cases here and there. Basically like the MLB gets now.

I just find it quite weird and somewhat amusing when people just throw things out there when they have no idea if it’s even remotely true or not. Which you don’t.

Just because there hasn’t been a “bust” doesn’t prove anything. It just means there was a magnifying glass on one and not on the other.

You have absolutely, zero idea how prevalent PED use has been in Boxing. This is a sport that was barely even a tested sport until recent memory so nobody does.

So yes whilst the PED use in baseball was rife, it would be impossible to know what it’s like in comparison to boxing because again no one has any idea of the level of PED use in this sport.

In the other words, you’re plucking it out of thin air.
