It's a good thing you're not the judge or jury!

i dunno, too many people get away with a lot of stuff these days, I would be fair but firm...

I like all kinds of fighters, but I dont like trashy people.

- AboutBroke - I've been long outspoken against him
- AdonisRapist - I literally said a few weeks ago...if he doesnt come out of his coma it wouldnt be the worst thing...and when will he fight KOvalev
- Sergio K - Dude is a punk racist and now woman beater
- Margs - Never before has an untalented been heralded like this guy. Needed plaster to beat Cotto (his all-time achievement and peak performance) then in literally his next fight gets KO'd..yeah...dude was never good. Happy broke his face for cheating Cotto and making fun of Parkinsons
- Manny - dude is too hypocritical for me. Whether it's his likely PED usage (and Y E A R S of ducking tests only to require them after KTFO6) or it's his political work where he sucks Duterte off while thousands of his people are murdered...and his hatred of ****sexuality is very far from christian... it's some southern Baptist rhetoric. Dude is a clown and I was happy KTFO6 settled him down

I've never liked a cheat in any way. Most of the above guys were cheats in some ways which is why I don't like them

What is considered cheating is debatable depending on the commission and the testing agencies involved in a fight. This is a problem inherent in the lack of standardized rules and regulations in boxing and ultimately, increases the possibility of corruption and reduces the probability of a level playing field.. You say Pacquiao is a clown yet he won titles in 8 different weight divisions and was the fighter of his era. You can talk testing all day but the fact of the matter is, he never tested positive, in all the years as a boxer. Tyson Fury tested positive. Is he a clown? He obviously has excellent boxing skills. This is not a result of PED use. Joshua hasn't tested positive but does he not look like there could've been some PED use? Mayweather never tested positive but he certainly looked juiced against Pacquiao. Holyfield? Klitschko? Toney? Mosley? Jones? There are many boxers over the years who have tested positive and are still considered HOF'ers. This doesn't make it right but it happens. Unfortunately, the use of performance enhancing drugs is rampant in the sport. You would probably be surprised at the number of boxers using and not getting caught. The ones that get caught either weren't the A side and couldn't buy off the testing agency or got greedy and didn't cycle off the drugs in time.

Canelo tested positive for clenbuterol, enrolled in WBC365, agreed to hair follicle test with nsac, has never tested positive before or after, canelos performances have IMPROVED and not worsened since the positive test...WADA director said positive tests "consistent with meat contamination" and these tests marked the 1st time canelo was ever tested while living in Mexico. Mexico has well-documented problem with clenbuterol in cattle/meat

Pacquiao dodged/avoided drug testing while stopping considerably larger opponents, most of which were future HOF (even if they were shopworn)...once Pac finally did start testing his performances WORSENED and not improved. The rationale for not testing was laughably bad...afraid of needles, giving blood weakens me, "I need a cutoff date"...The dude might as well just say "I'm cheating and don't want to get caught, but also dont want to stop".

The circumstantial evidence surrounding each fighter are completely different. Being objective matters when evaluating incidents like these. Everything I wrote - except for italics - is objective
