WOW... Marquez with suspect ACNE all over chest [WEIGH IN]

[Ivansmamma]

39 year old man knocks down then KTFO in epic fashion an opponent he's never even KD once in three prior fights. This same man never looked nearly so jacked in a long and storied career. This very same man grows a minefield of acne on his chest for a fight at age 40. Nope, nothing su****ious here!

Marquez always had decent power and the knockout shot was perfectly timed. Also Marquez put on weight and he did it smart the second time he went to 147 and put it on in muscle over relatively long time not like he tried to do in the mayweather fight.

Do i believe Marquez used steroids to do this? He might have. I also believe most proffessional atheletes at that level uses or have used some kind of PEDs. What i don't believe is just putting on some muscle over a year in time and having some acne is enough evidence. I have put on a similar amount over two years time and Marquez most likely have a lot better genetics then me so i believe he could have done it naturally with good training and nutrition.

No it ain't no roid. The chest ACNE originates from the cyst/acne on his d1ck. JMM been visiting too many brothels in TJ and Mexico City. Alvarado is gonna get his ass kicked.

[Strategic1]

All signs point to PED use.

Marquez declined extra VADA/USDA testing for the Bradley fight. People need to remember that.

Bradley thought that was agreed upon in the contract and was almost about to pull out when Marquez declined. But there was too much money on the table and he'd look like a wuss if he cancelled the fight...so Bradley went along with the slightly enhanced testing from Nevada's commission.

pretty much this...he's at the end of his career...he doesn't give a ****...he's made his money and will be retiring soon anyway

I have a better one for you. Fighter A knocks his opponent down three times in the first round in a fight contested at 126 pounds, but can't KO him. He then goes on to lose virtually all of the next 11 rounds and ends up with a disputed draw. Fighter A then moves up in weight several times, but suddenly has the power to knock out much bigger opponents. Limited power at 126. Great power at 140-147?

There is definitely something su****ious here!!!!

Like I said to pbeer, on this we can agree.

As far as I'm concerned, no one is above su****ion -- especially when they display physical signs of PED/steroid use. Acne, enlarged head, elevated performance at an advanced age, etc. It's the world we live in. Baseball players juice, football players juice, track and field athletes juice, but boxers don't?

it's highly su****ious though. out of all the fighters in the sport right now, jmm stands out as the most su****ious fighter.

Yes, for those that don't know, acne is a known side-effect of steroid use...especially in a man Marquez's age. Is it proof? No. But it sure looks su****ious.

Major League Baseball has a stated agenda to clean up their sport. They have millions of dollars to throw at the PED problem. They've had some of their greatest athletes brought before congress. They've fined and suspended quite a few millionaire players, and they still haven't managed to stamp out the problem of PEDs in baseball. Are people so naive to think that boxing, with its practically non-existent drug protocol, its scant recourses and its generally apathetic infrastructure, is free of steroids? I've got a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn.

Really all that needs to be said. QFT.

Yeah it's a sign to look for but a guy like hopkins might be more suspect he is pushing fifty. Both guys might be clean or both might be on something...
As long as testing is done the way it is now we will most likely never know.

Marquez : Right now I feel like a 23 year old, I feel great, I never felt so happy

Real repetitive with it too, sometimes I'm like shut the fuck up Juan

We agree on the bold. Obviously we can't be certain if Marquez is juicing or not. Then again, we can't be certain if Sammy Sosa juiced when he hit 60 home runs three years straight (a feat that had never been achieved before, and had only been done one season by two other men). What would you put your money on if someone put a gun to your head? That they're clean?
