Comments Thread For: Chavez Sr: Roberto Duran Refused Drug Testing For Our Fight!

[Xi_]

My godness, some people should take a test of boxing knowledge before they start posting.

I know leonard started at ww.....i was just saying he's never been tested and i was off by a few pounds in regards to duran...sue me. My point still stands.....none of these dudes have ever gone through any real drug testing.

Duran never showed signs of being on PED's, he moved in so many weightclasses because he was lazy and you can see that he was an overweight boxer over 147 who won his fights on skill alone and his heavy hands, it's not hard to move up when you are from 135 to 147 and back then there wasn't a 140 division, below 135 Duran was just a teenager.

Keeping your power through weight classes is a sign of ped usage......i don't care if you're a great fighter like Duran.....he should be suspect just like pacquiao, floyd, holyfield and the rest of them.

The same Duran that was knocking adults as a young teen?.
Yeah you are right, Jones Jr., Jeffries, Langford, Hearns, Leonard, Duran, Chavez, Pacquiao, Donaire, Ketchel, Patterson, Holyfield, De La Hoya, Trinidad, all of them were on PEDs.

Never said duran was on ped's.....i said i wouldn't be surprised if he was. And all of thoses fighters you named could have used peds as well, yes.

Other than maybe a diuretic, which back in those days was not an offense, Duran was never in any way associated with PED's...just a way for JCC to sidestep the issue why he didn't fight him... Duran would have mauled him and stopedhim somewhere between rounds 8 and 10...

[BoxHec]

where did I say Chavez was the one who suggested the anti doping you dumb ****?? Maybe you should learn how read b*tch boy.

"Yeah, he's gonna take peds for an exhibition match"
That's it you are a moron!
"He's" mean what? the dudes of the athletic commission?

I'm my own boss since age 22 and you f0k!in maggot? and I have three kids and zero gay experience so don't put your *****s on other!

"he's gonna take peds for an exhibition match" meaning sarcastically, yeah, sure Duran would go as far to take peds for an exhibition match. You're really ****** if you couldn't pick that up. Cong**** on being a boss of a fruit stand on the corner since you were 22 and for raising another's man's kids, since an idiot like you was surely cheated on by any chic ****** enough to get with a ****** such as yourself.

So what? If Pacquiao and mayweather can can be suspected why can't leonard and duran? They went through virtually zero testing.

Anyone can be suspected but their debut weights and ages make their gradually rise to middleweight completely understandable.

It took Duran about 10 yrs to go from Featherweight to Welterweight.

It took Leonard about 10 yrs to go from Welterweight to Middleweight.

It took Pacquiao 8 months to go from fighting JMM at Super Featherweight to fighting DLH at Welterweight.

See the difference.
