The Sport of Boxing and Steroids

[Pullcounter]

this article is ******.

1) RJJ looked average against Tarver because he dropped 20 lbs of muscle. that dumbass said that he lost a couple lbs of fat and said it didn't do anything to him. big difference betweeen muscle and fat.

2) How does the writer know that Vargas would've been KOed sooner without roids against DLH? He's making arguments off hypothetical situations.

3) Even if toney was using steroid, how would it help him considering he's fat as ****?

I'm not a fan of steroid use in any sports, but IMHO steroids won't turn an average fighter into a great fighter.

I never saw the BALCO list. Was it made public?

I've seen several list from the european BALCO counterparts (primarily cyclingrelated) and all the names were coded and not all was decrypted.

Yes, they were made public. There weren't that many names but the most prominent had theirs d****d on every sports page. And Roy Jones Jr. wasn't one of them. Author spent a lot of time harping on this conspiracy theory that is false. Why not stay with what you know? The fact that he tested positive in 2000 is good (or bad) enough. No need to make up more.

Funny how Roy Stans talk **** about Margarito being a cheater. Same with Mosley lol.

Margarito is not a cheat but a disgrace

In that case you're right. Going out the BALCO tangent is a reach as far as Jones is concerned.

The sport of boxing needs random blood testing for drugs or whatever to stop fighters juicing and dangering lives. Floyd Mayweather is right when he says 'take the test'

So you bump a 3 year old thread about it? Please tell me what the point of that is. Holy....

I think he used the search function properly in this case...you would've been more annoyed if he started yet another new steroid thread to turn into a 30 page Pac/May *****fest.

20 years of weight lifting experience and you were not aware that you can NOT gain 25lbs of muscle in 5 months without steroids? LOL ok...

Naturally you can only look forward to gaining about 1.5 lbs per month.

The post is totally pointless. That is MY point.
