It just allows you to get on the field. If a guy watches Paulie now and the next fight Paulie says he's taking the shots, all of assudden Paulie isnt going to turn into Pac. Nothing changes about him. All that changes is that he can fight. He is not better in any way
    My point is, how can anything being used to get you in the ring not be an advantage?

    If he can't stand the pain, and 24/7 shows he has very bad hands, then it would be a disadvantage if he couldn't even get in the ring at all.

      If his hands were truly that bad, he shouldn't be boxing.

        Eh......I hear what your saying but to you thing painkillers or tylenol should be illeagal too? They also reduce the pain someone would have in the ring.

            Didn't really have to worry about Gatti blocking punches which could result in Floyd injuring himself on his elbow. In addition to that he was wearing fluffy winnings gloves. Couple that in with the fact that it was apast prime anturro ****ing gatti.

              Naw I get all that Im just saying he didnt see to be gunshy with his hands in a fight outside of Vegas. Though his hands are brittle I get the feeling when push comes to shove he can still compete. It just wont be very pleasant. Who knows though. The whole issue is borderline to me.

                well in that case boxers shouldnt be allowed to use supplements. They are a much lesser, and safer form of steroids.

                and fyi, taking tylenol wont directly numb your hands to the point where you cant feel a thing when punching.

                  I don't know much of these or steroids, but I kinda think that it's no way in the middle for Floyd. I think it helps him and is an advantage. I'm not calling him a cheat. Just saying how I feel it bro

                    Well he did quit 2 times I believe and I guess has only come back because of maybe his financial issues.

                      It doesnt but it takes the edge off pain. The solution he injects cant fully numb him to pain either. To numb his hands to that dregee would make it difficult to even make a fist.
