Why do we overlook/accept roy jones jr PED usage?

['b']

Why does this get shrugged off as no big deal? And dont ****ing tell me he bulked up on chicken and rice

fried chicken has high fat content so that's possible, for a dirty bulk maybe.

I dunno man, should we call him Roid Jones Jr?

It's because whatever he may have taken they covered it up. The same as Evander Holyfield.

Why does Evan Fields get a pass.

The most blatant drug cheating program ever, on Lance Armstrong scale.

The correct answer is that he was taking Ripped Fuel from GNC, which is something that I used to take and I am no Roy Jones Jr., trust me. It wasn't that big of a deal.

It wasn't exactly like Evander Holyfield getting caught up in an international doping conspiracy or something

Every professional Athlete is responsible for what goes into their body. The obligation is on them. There is a banned list, and the ingredients are listed on the products he buys.

Cheating is cheating, no matter how big or how small.

Guys, as a huge fan of Jones, I read this which was disturbing as a true fan. Naturally I hope someone can rebuke this very detailed article:

Yeah, his size increase definitely points to some harder stuff.

The boxing authorities brushed in under the carpet, just like we have seen with Canelo

The tell tale sign of PED use is being the best. Everybody else is doping too, you have to dope to keep up. Depending on drug testing protocols, not everybody is doping in major amounts, but microdosing is rampant and the higher end guys can afford undetectable drugs.

Ignorant statement. There is such a thing as being better than other fighters. Boxing is 120+ years old and PED haven't even existed all that time and the cream still rose to the top.

mosley, roy, toney, holyfield, etc etc etc etc!!

yet, mofos wanna keep accusing pac with NO proof. and you are the perfect example!

Really?

You've never heard me say anything bad about Manny Pacquiao. I thought Floyd ducked him for years. Now, if it came out Manny cheated and he just took something like Ripped Fuel, my stance was the same, but if he was a part of an international cheating conspiracy like Evander Holyfield, I'd dismiss a lot of his accomplishments.

I think Evander's the greatest Cruiser ever, but he moved up got huge and I really don't think it's fair to count his victories against Mike Tyson and Rid**** Bowe, or the draw with Lennox knowing what we know now and just looking at his physique.

and yet, he's still looked at as one of the greatest HW!!!!!! let that be manny and all the shiiet he's worked for will go down the drain. this is what i am talking about! double fvvvcking standard!!

Manny's not in most people's P4P top 10-15 fighters who ever lived now? Like, you're making the same mistake a lot of people do and just assuming that idiots on the internet are the majority when it's the opposite.

Manny sells out arenas and is a god in his native Phillippines and around the world, even though he's washed.

if someone is caught using peds once then its not like u might not give them leeway for it, but nevertheless, once is still cheating, be it jones or klitschko.

for me this always takes them down a peg in the way I rate them. ... for me Jones is only a lesser ATG despite achieving major ATG stuff.

though froid chicken jones might be too much

Because at least 90% of the world champions right now are on PEDs.

Maybe because of floyds IV before pac fight. Lots of dodgy behaviour and goings on. PAC koing everybody he fought and making them look like elephant man was dodgy as heck. He was greater than people thought was possible so pac was guilty. So why wouldn’t people overlook rjj.?
