I never really thought about it. The HW division has been very weak and Vitali is a pretty decent fighter that uses his height well. I've never heard of him turn down testing, so I'm not too su****ious of him.

I believe Vitali is clean since the incident 20 years ago. But one can choose to believe whatever makes him happier.

This is a serious thread so please no trolling. I'm of the belief it is also a very real possibility Hopkins may also be on performance enhancers.
Vote and discuss.
Ain't that enough?

PEDS don't make you better. They allow for quicker recovery and that often leads to greater physical stamina, speed and strength. It does not help with your skill. Skill training is not the physically arduous and draining part of training. Steroids don't help with it at all.
Jones Jr, without his roids, would have still had the same skill, but he just wouldn't have had the same explosive speed and weirdly fast twitch muscle, stamina and strength to go with it.
Vitali, if he used his old roids, would not have gotten better in skill terms. He would have not fallen prey to old injuries, been strong, fit and has great stamina etc even going into whatever age he is now.
