    You do you, man. You're always entertaining. And you're part of the Bradley Tribe, there are too few of us to hate on each other.

      It all started with Martinez.......people wanted Martinez to fight this guy. Nah, not in some small ass death cage, especially with a bum knee, you have to be kidding. Now that Martinez is safe from harm's way, I have to come up with a new agenda to keep GGG down so I don't come off as a hypocrite.

        What Donaire is doing is not all that commendable either, because if he is caught out of competition, there will be no penalty and no one will know. It won't get announced. NSAC and other Commissions have to establish rules where whether a fighter is in competition or out of competition, positive drug results will be penalized. And they all need to do more testing all across the board, if anything for the Top 10 contenders at least.
        He can get tested 365 days a year. True Olympic Standard.

        The rest of boxing is sub standard, huge gaping holes for doping.

          What can I say? Also, I'm a pretty heavy drinker on fight nights so I get a little out of control in my crap talking and conspiracy theories. Sunday mornings often provide stellar entertainment when I am reading some of the stuff I spouted off while inebriated.

            Another fighter getting accused of steroids, its getting old now, why even bother with testing now? Even if a guys tests are clean some group of weirdo's will say its because he's on undetectable drugs or the results are being covered up.

            Not every fighter that's doing well is on PED's.

              As well at taking two year breaks away from any testing whatsoever.

              Most sports want you to be on the testing program for 6 months till you can compete again.

              Boxing does need to get it's act together.

              If only there were more like Donaire.
              so you are essentially saying GGG is su****ious. I'm saying he isn't. we can agree to disagree.

                GGG is about as su****ious as every other boxer in boxing apart from Donaire.

                  Yes, but without penalties for out of competition positive results, testing 365 days is absolutely useless. There's no sanctions right now for it. That is also a huge gaping hole.

                    The discussion is about whether or not GGG has ever undergone random drug testing. And the fact is, he has never undergone random drug testing through any of the common anti-doping organisations (no VADA, no USADA, and no advanced NSAC tests).

                    Nice deflection try though.
                    As an AM he'd have been subject to IOC testing?

                      If you scroll back, you'll see me speaking about GGG as a professional, rather than an amateur.
