    Where would these "haters" stand?
    Everyone would simply flip-flop places.

GGG should be drug tested, just like any other athlete. Until he is tested, there is nothing wrong with questioning if he is clean or not.
      Other athletes have regulated testing. In boxing you have promoters/fighters paying for it, which is a huge conflict of interest and makes it a bogus PR exercise.

        You might as well make this thread for every top fighter.

            GGG has some crazy amateur record like 300-5. He's been knocking guys out since he became a pro. His division is weak. I don't really suspect him of using PEDs but at championship level I believe everyone should be tested hardcore just to make sure. Personally he doesn't seem like a guy who would use but I would have said the same about Anderson Silva a few weeks ago. I just think at that level everyone should be tested regardless of su****ions.

            This is very true. Lol I fortunately am one of these people. Last year I got back in the gym hardcore and was eating right (about 3000 calories and 300 grams of protien a day. Lots of chicken and salad and protien powder.) I went from being 115 to 130 in about 4 months and my bench went from 115lbs to 205lbs. No steroids, just hardwork and dedication and God given abilities.

              Wait, you've heard of them too? I thought they were just an urban gym myth?

                Yea he's fighting so often and all over the place too with different commision's

                I doubt he's on anything illegal

                And I'm sure he would take testing

                  He should do it for his next fight, just to put us all at ease.

                    Only during in-competition right now. But not for out-of-competition (meaning when the fighter doesn't have a fight coming up).

                      I like to think if Marvin Hagler were in his prime today that he'd be getting the same support by Golovkin fans.
