          we all know in the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's there was no regular drug testing for boxing. Steroids was already rampant in the Olympics by the 50's. it wasn't until the late 90's that regular testing was implemented.

          couple of years later, RJJ Jr got knocked dead and Lennox Lewis was run out of the HW division by the Klitschkos.

                on cuts....... he was behind on the judges' cards and any respectable scorecard.any reason why he declined the 8 figure payday rematch, if he was so dominant? Plus I feel that, my country's fighters are having a rougher time. Shimoda losing to Beetlejuice and Hasegawa losing to Gonzalez really stung.

                  I believe they have more hunger and a better work ethic IMHO, based on where they live at. Mostly coming from extreme poverty.

                    are all still VERY much in the mix.

                    berto is as well, despite coming off of a loss. we can surely expect to see him stirring things up again.

                      he's not trying to turn it into a race thing, he;s simply saying african americans arent as dominant in the sport as they once were, its not as assanine as it sounds.
