    Is this proof that Roberto Duran was using PEDs?

    I am reading Roberto Duran's biography named "Hands of Stone" (by Christian Giudice) and on page 146, Duran said this about his 2nd fight with Edwin Viruet:
    "They gave me this injection to get stronger and faster....an injection that they give to horses....."

    Here is the source: read the yellow marked part:

      I have top level show horses and it was probably Winstrol...which is, in fact, an anabolic steroid.

            You cherrypicked the phrase that made it sound as bad as possible, while omitting the words that contextualised it

            A well known journalistic trick.

              you spend too much time on the internet buddy. Why would I post the whole thing when I have it in the source? So you know exactly what everything means, right?

                "Performance Enhancing Drugs" by the sounds of it, it didn't enhance his performance so the answer is no.
