Andre Ward Speaking about Victor Conte and Steroid Testing
Collapse

I don't buy it. I know people who prepared more and were overtrained, fighters I personally knew.
Nothing helped them.
I think it's a joke that there isn't one proven case of a fighter being improved on fight night by peds.
No one has provided one example of this in this thread.
I will wait.) but to answer your question J, i think Mosley was definitely in ''steroid withdrawal'' when he fought Floyd. Every other time he has the stamina and is able to let his hands go but in a fight where there's random drug testing, he all of a sudden had to pace himself and gassed out after 4 rounds. Even in his losses, Shane had the stamina to battle fast paced for a full 12 rounds. He even seemed like he didn't react to shots as good either (head snapping back, retreating ect).
If he fights Mora (who probably won't ask for drug testing because of the opportunity that hes getting), doesn't fade and is not pacing himself, then that would pretty much be all i need to know.Last edited by slicksouthpaw16; 07-06-2010, 10:23 AM.Comment

No, why would we?
Actually, HGH has plenty of benefits. And you sound pretty uninformed, making statements that contradict the Head of the Nevada State Medical Advisory Board. Furthermore, there are countless PEDs. Just because you want to harp on one doesn't make the others non-existant.
and why would'nt they have mayweather/roy jones type reflexes? didn't you just say it improves your reflexes?
or is it like coffee where it just wakes you up with that energy rush?Comment

I hate to see both of yall go at it like this (two good posters) but to answer your question J, i think Mosley was definitely in ''steroid withdrawal'' when he fought Floyd.

HGH seems to me like it'd be most beneficial to a boxer who is moving up in weight. It's funny how a lot of the guys who've been busted or are in su****ion are weight climbers. Jones Jnr, Toney, Mosley, Holyfield, De La Hoya, Pacquiao, etc.Comment

Mosley came under so much scrutiny years ago, that I doubt he's done them in a while.
I mean HBO killed him back in the day for his admission.
Mosley is just old and fading now.
He's probably gonna hang them up soon.
He's got enough money.Comment
