      At least, he's not the dumb ass that is defending Victor Conte.

      And running with the Frank Abegnale comparison to Victor Conte once again shows how utterly ******ed you are.

      It wasn't feasible for Frank to commit crimes anymore, while Conte could easily help the boxers he's working with evade ped tests. Even Warde played down his involvement with Conte, claiming they're only acquaintances.

        Absolutely. And what's worse, Victor Conte, cannot be trusted. Why would a boxer hire him as their doctor? So they could understand how not to cheat? That's ***ing bs, obviously.

        And these ******ed dumb asses like Rapid Counter actually think Conte knows more than Wada, or USTA in catching ped cheats? Absolute nonsense. The fact boxing allows a discredited cheat to operate with boxers, is a disgrace.

        And Conte running his own anti doping program? Jesus Christ, what an amazingly ******ed idea. If an organization is going to be used, it should be wada or USTA, obviously.

          If it becomes a coherent program and it grows in popularity, then the boxing public/press will demand for better testing, as we see in cycling. Then the commissions will be embarrassed by their ancient tests will be forced to improve theirs or maybe cooperate with VADA. We shouldn't care if Conte is making money or not out of this as long as we have a better chance to see real people in the ring...
          Imagine the impact of the issue if a perceived "good guy" like Pacquiao or Martinez would support it (not only annoying characters like Floyd).

            You can also include Roger Mayweather an A meth expert to this VADA.

              Truthfully, this makes total sense. It helps him restore his image and it could potentially help the sport out in the long run. Something like this could springboard a national or potentially global reform for the sport. Reaching, I know. But a man can dream.

              Nonetheless, this works because he's one guy that HAS to keep him nose clean. Anything that even SEEMS wrong and his ass gets fried. He would also be someone that might know the tricks of the trade, so to speak.

              It's like a criminal being asked how the robber is getting into the vault. Who would know better?

                One of Mayweather’s own idols, the legendary Marvin Hagler, has urged his countryman to 'stop all this nonsense and get on with the fight the public wants.'

                  It is important what you do: Miller and Basso, in cycling are ex-doping cheats that are now considered almost the role models for clean cycling. They were exemplary and very vocal against doping after they served their penalties. And actually Conte might have good insider information for WADA. Do you know of any famous doping doctor helping an anti-doping commission? Of course, ideally boxing would work with WADA, but since it doesn't seems likely to happen any time soon, we can welcome any initiative.

So I figured, 'who better to ask about steroids, PEDs, HGHs and doping in sports other than a man who has extensive first-hand experience on the topic, and knows the science of supplements, performance enhancers, doping... the whole nine yards?!'

                    Conte is a crook, unless he's doing what he's doing and not being paid for it, by all means, but that seems to be what he's is all about.

                      They should have the anti doping people create a steroid, a steroid they have a test for, and get someone to put it out there as an undetectable steroid, see how many athletes they catch doing buying it.
