PED ERA vs OST ERA: Where do we draw the line when measuring past vs present fighters

[Dosumpthin]

Chickenweather had the best PEDS ever created. Slow motion shows him slipping shots, countering, Adolf Hilter would’ve been proud how an African American athlete absorbed such benefits and took his brain, ring IQ to the next level like no other combat athlete before him. Not even the Greeks with their super opium ****tails to avoid fatigue is unparalleled

Deep rooted racism. Jessie Owen type hate right here.

Let me remind you.....

50-0 and beat everyone you said he couldn't.



Side note - did you enjoy Black Panther? Have you submitted your review yet?

I think duran, srl, hearns and hagler were all juiceheads.

These Mayweather worshipers always lie to themselves. They're assuming Froid's fake testing is implemented all the time. Pederson himself admitted not being tested in his come back fight after being exposed.

Olympic STYLE Testing.

But maybe I should have wrote ABP ERA instead of OST.


Let me be clear here - ABP testing is what I'm giving Floyd his rightful credit for.



Floyd used a WADA signatory (USADA) who is required to follow WADA protocols. In Floyds case, all of his samples were target tested AND followed ABP protocols.

With ABP, the more data collected the better it works. Floyd was tested close to 20 times for May Pac throughout training camp. Prior to that, USADA has accumulated ABP data on Floyd since 2010. That's a lot to work with.



For the record : WADA Athlete Biological Passport software is the best deterrent to date and WADA believes is the future of drug testing. ABP Rules allows for testing agencies to bring forth violations without actually detecting the banned substance.




Random 365 is great in theory. Problem I don't believe it is practical for high level athletes. Secondly, ADO's tend to rely on the "fear" rather than the "science".
VADA for example (doesn't do ABP) has fighters only getting tested once maybe twice a year. Then you have rules where athletes are allowed to have an "excuse" and avoid the test. Not nearly as EFFECTIVE as 100 ABP samples during training.







So yeah......THANK YOU FLOYD for making ABP MANDATORY for your fights and setting a precedence that Boxing can build on.

year round isnt great in. It’s actyally very practical. Olympic athletes can be tested 24/7/365. There are agents throughout the world.

A fighter can use PEDs. Cycle off before training camp and not test positive and still have the gains from the prior ped use. It’s why a lot of fighters like to take long layoffs between fights. Cycling on and off.

Floyd started the movement of at least having testing camps which is better than nothing but a fighter with a smart team can easily beat those tests. Year round is a much more accurate system of testing.
