Comments Thread For: Mayweather: Mosley's Knockouts, What Was He Taking?

[amayseng]

Come off the soap box. Yes things have changed but most people have always asked somebody what they are being given if they don't know what it is. That is just human nature.

Mosley wouldn't have admitted **** if his name didn't come up in that report. Mosley didn't go to the FEDS and offer any information about Conte or BALCo when all this **** first started. What he did do was spill his guts when that federal subpoena came and demanded that he tell what he did or go to jail. So don't try to make it seem like Mosley is this good information offering guy. Mosley was made to testify and if he wasn't he would never said **** because he wouldn't have wanted the little backlash and **** talking about him that he got.

Keep **** real man

do some research.
its not like years later they ran shane down and finally got him to testify.
there was a federal investigation, they showed up unnanounced at the facility, raided it of its materials and files and those athletes with records
were indicted for a grand jury testimony. he showed up and testified. balco was not a gnc complany, they delt with professional athletes of many disciplines. you all act like he took bottles from a dude in a locker room at the local powerhouse gym.
nothing to do with a soap box, we true boxing fans like to have good educated discussions without inappropriately being a douche.

Nobody is tryin to make moses a innocent guy.But he came clean.Look at barry bond's did they ever come up with any proof on him?Oh how bout the Rocket?Moses did not have to admitt anything he could have took it to his grave but he told the world and said he did not know what it was.Oh and to answer your question he did ask what he was taking.Conte told him it was just some vitamins.Once again you are goin to trust your doc or conditioning coach.It's like putting some plaster on your hand to go into the ring with.know?

agreed rome, some people, especially those who have never played sports dont get it.

at the time Conte and Balco were the #1 supplement company for professional athletes..while we amateurs went to gnc, the likes of mcgwire, bonds, palmero, numerous pro football and basketball players at the elite levels were being supplemented and stood by the company.
thus you tend to believe their self proclaimed hype and legitimacy...
especially when your long term trainer who does the research on health and diet tell you its all good.

but what do i know, im too busy on my soapbox not keeping it real

in todays day and age after hgh and mlb, conte, barry bonds, mcgwire, hello stallone....sure today we question everything and everyone.
but 10 years ago it was a different story.
back then u could buy andro at gnc and it was legal, now it is not.
you could buy ephidrine at gnc or walmart, now u cant.


different time different mindset...
shane knows he should have been more su****ious, that is why he is honest
and admits his mistake and doesnt try to cover it up.

so in 2 years if xylocain becomes illegal then will everyone of floyds wins be changed to a loss? or frowned upon?

So because you could waltz in and buy something it was legal? Is that your logic?


Shane was perfectly aware of what he was doing. Boxers are almost religious when it comes to their body. I mean why would he take something without knowing what it was? What happens if it means he gains say 5 lbs? So ofcourse he knew what he was doing. Those who thinks otherwise are dillusional.

are you saying that a commercialized company like gnc sells illegal drugs?

I think for some people battling nelson want to kick mosley from the sport forever which is funny they forgave Arod when he came clean and look world series.What you have to understand when he use peds in my opinion was one of his worst fight's against hoya lol so it's not even like it help him.(i hated when sugar was fighting jr mw just did not fit him).

What I am saying is the story broke before long before anybody testified. So you are right Mosley could have denied it till his grave but if Mosley was the good samaritian like people are trying to make him out to be he would have said what he possibly did wrong when the story broke not wait to be forced to testify or go to jail. So someone you are being introduced to by someone you may or may not trust gives you some expensive ass vitamins that you can't take on a plane they have to be mailed to you??? That **** is shady and I don't care who I trust I am not going for no **** like that. You have a point yes you are going to trust your doc or coach but at some point in time you have to be honest with yourself when **** just don't seem like its all on the up and up.

[Sugar Q]

sugar q is soundin like a real manny **** rider rite about now....y havent i heard about mannys rediculous 10 mil every weight over demand?
do sum studying if floyd does the same test wtf does it matter oh because floyd naturally bigger?well whos going up in weight wit the big boys? manny!
so wouldnt it be fair that floyd demands this **** at his weight?
u dont go to sumones house n start doin watever the **** u want...u respect there house n if u get the title of that house then u do wat u want!!!

Get you some new glasses son cause the ones your wearing have failed you.

[BattlingNelson]

It might not be illegal to use for normal guys but for sportspeople subject to doping rules yes.

Don't tell me that you disagree.

[BattlingNelson]

Plenty of boxers talk ****. It's part of the game, man and makes things interesting. Cleaning up his mouth would do nothing for the sport.

I don't see what the big problem with him demanding RBT on his future opponents is? If they don't want to take a RBT, they don't have to. They can take a different fight and make a lot less money like Pacquaio did.

I think it's a damn good start in the battle to get steroids out of boxing. He's one of the biggest draws in boxing so him demanding random blood testing for his opponents, at least helps show that the top level guys aren't using steroids.

I don't think Floyd is trying to be anyone's hero. He's been quite content being the villain for the past few years.

^^^^^^^^^The truth.
