Comments Thread For: Saunders: Aging Golovkin Has Slowed Down Due to "Drug Tests"

[alexguiness]

GGG's apparent loss of form is mainly due to 1) better opposition, 2) age, 3) possible drug related issues.

Canelo has let him get old before facing him, but I still think he whoops everyone's a$$ in the MW division.

You feel the need to disparage every Black American fighter in the game....oh jealous insecure one.

You're doing the same with white fighters.

You're just as bad, unsecure, unfair and a looser as freedom is.

GGG reminds me a bit of Klit's declining.

Honnestly, better oppostion...

I'm not sure about Brook being that good at 160, Brook would get his ass handed by Martin Murray.


GGG looks physically shopwron, slower.

Another respected writer/trainer said the same thing a couple months ago

Danny Jacobs fought a hell of a fight. Giveprops dont belittle GGG.As for GGG he looked human that tends to happen when youre 35 and do VADA

@mrblue323 every fighter who does VADA in their 30s looks like they are in their 30s. No shame in being clean and aging appropriate.

The PED use in pro boxing is endemic imo and those "on the inside" have a very accurate idea who is/who isn't etc.

I don't really like unfounded accusations..... but it is somewhat understandable that the UK fighters view some of the American (based) fighters su****iously..... and one benefit of having proven that you are clean, is that you able to throw stones with a clear conscience

I don't think Golovkin is juicing, it's not like he refused random blood tests or anything

I think theres been a fair share of juicing going on on both sides of the pond. I hate to say it but I view nearly the whole heavyweight division with some su****ion . I guess spending my teenage years cheering for Evan Fields didn't help 🤔

[goldenbear]

I've been a critic of GGG but don't believe he's cheating.....

My only criticism of GGG has been his opposition. I'm not claiming to be an authority but I'm pretty good after following a fighter for a while being able to tell if he's juicing. GGG usually stops his opposition with pressure and accuracy over time. In my opinion he appears to be a clean fighter. GGG is hitting guys flush to head and body round after round so I don't expect people to last more than 8 rounds when getting hit that often and cleanly by a solid puncher. I see more skill as reason for the knockouts.

[HeadShots]

really ?

in this very article, it stated that Golovkin has only recently undertaken VADA, for Brook and Jacobs..... and it also says that Saunders (like all UK-based fighters) is tested 24/7 - 365

wrong went all the way back to lemieux.

I know the WBC required it's top fighters to undergo drug testing. G is a WBC title holder. If Canelo fights to his title I would think he has to do the same. Is he fighting for the WBC title.

Looks like the answer is no.
Interesting...

What does steroids do except for putting muscle mass? if so that's not a big problem, compare Tim Bradley and Tommy Hearns. Do they enchance one's cardio or somehow power?

He wasnt on the vada program for lemule or wade and su****iously delayed the tests until like 3 weeks prior to the fights...
