Andre Ward relying heavily on BALCO founder.

[The Hammer]

You can always fly to Vegas on Monday, party all week, then rent a car and drive to Cali for the fight.

Yes, Palm Springs isn't too far from Vegas.

[BattlingNelson]

in the words of a great man "either charge him or leave him alone" journalists speculate and are wrong all the time. They are paid to produce scandal its the media. Think ward knows conte's reputation so why would he give an interview to an la times reporter outing himself for using dope? That would be ******* move of the year and I think this case is less about doping more about hurt feelings.

The facts remain that Ward acknowledges the help from the convicted scumbag Conte in his big win.

T

But why are Sauerland being so ****** as to have Abraham fight Dirrell in Rancho Mirage, California on Mar 6? I would avoid California like the plague if I were a boxing promoter.

And I was hoping it would be in Las Vegas so I could get an inexpensive flight and see it.

Yes, Palm Springs isn't too far from Vegas.

Which is it???

Andre Ward claims to be a Christian...

But he fights dirty. His promoter gets him a crooked home referee, Jack Reiss, so he can deliberately headbutt and hit while holding.

Now we find out he uses an infamous doctor with a criminal record!

Andre Ward was sent by God to teach Victor Conte the value of honest work.

What a wonderful human being he is to help out a man who was down and out.

[street bully]

I look forward to seeing Ward KO Taylor in the dying seconds of the twelfth and final round.

[Sweet Pea 50]

I wish a cold, long walk through East Oakland on Bat, and Tunney. JAT....

Which is it???

Same place. Rancho Mirage is part of greater Palm Springs. Here's a map:

Unbelievably several top US athletes continue to coorporate with infamous BALCO founder Victor Conte. Among those mentioned is WBA SMW champion André Ward.

If it was found out that Arthur Abraham or Mikkel Kessler worked with Conte's european counterpart Dr. Efemio Fuentes (of Operation Puerto) the scandal would be gigantic. Yet in the US it's just business as usual.

Sounds exactly how EPO works.

Ward defeated kessler d/t PEDs? is this what ur alluding? the only way that he could beat him is with the help of blood doping or steroids or both?

in ur honest opinion, tell us the real reason kessler got thouroughly broken? please. dnt hide behind a speculative. tell us what u really think, fell, believe.

[DonTaseMeBrah]

Baseless allegation nelson.

What would victor conte know about steriods? Its not like he's some expert on the subject.


Not like Fraud Mayweather Sr. Now that's an allegation we can take seriously. A real expert on steriod use, not some noob like Victor Conte.......


wait that doesnt sound right.......




its not like the U.S. has some rich tradition on steroid usage like the Philippines, according to Fraud jr........






Its not like BALCO (bay area laboratory co-operative) has any connection to Andre ward who is from oakland.
