    Have we been spoiled by unnatural performances?

    A lot of fighters are being called feather fisted, but could it be that they simply have natural power? Who's to say if the same fighter on juice, HGH and other peds would suddenly get a hike in ko percentage?

    What if some fighters are avoided like the plague because they are "monsters"? Some of these fighters in the upper divisions are scary as ****, and obviously on every possible drug/supplement/hormone therapy in the book.

    Some others, like James Degale, are constantly being criticized for "taking breaks". Some people simply don't understand that you can't run around for 12 rounds balls to the wall throwing like James Degale does on active rounds.

    I think fans need to understand that some of the fighters out there are limited by the fact that there 100% natural. Yes, these guys exist out there. James Degale has probably been flirting with the idea and is probably coming out to send a message. Fighters who are natural need to be commended and their performances have to be taken into perspective.

    No all peds do is enhance what's already there, if you don't have a ko caliber punch to begin with it won't give you one.

      Kov looked a killer before. As soon as melodonium was banned he looked mediocre at best

        You can't even type that with a straight face.



        King Kov was literally wobbling Ward with jabs. So you're saying he woulda taken his head off with a jab on PEDs?

          Melodonium makes a freak of nature that doesn't get tired, kovs always getting gassed thats why he goes for the ko early.

            Kovalev looked like the incredible hulk against the cowardly runner ward.

            Flooring him with a cuffing blow, smashing his face in with jabs and throwing him like a rag doll when he tried his cheating holding tactics.

              He absolutely looked tired against Chilemba no? Then we saw what happened to Chilemba in his next fight the old Kov would have destroyedChilemba easy

                This thread isn't about Kovalev. I actually think he's natural. And just for the record, he looked like absolute shít from 5 to 12.
