    voted somewhat. canelo is a heck of a boxer. he works hard when he doesn't have a fight signed. the reynosos work with him consantly and he changes / evolves each year.

    steroids didn't give him that iron chin, either. or his cajones. you get the idea.


    that said, he popped for several times the levels we see in most cases of contaminated meat in mexico. it was su****ious and we should remain su****ious. hopefully samples are kept frozen and in time tests will be developed that might differentiate between meat contamination and PED use, find stuff that was otherwise masked, find new indicators for PED use and test for them down the road, etc. that will be quite can of worms, doe.

      He would've had to eat a herd of cows to get the levels he did, if the meat excuse was true.

      The truth is that the first time the testing went to Mexico, he got caught mid-cycle.

      Nobody really cares though. it's big news for a week and then get's forgotten about. He just signed a $350m contract, so it's not like it's affected him.

          We will never know because Canelo was ducking him.

          Golden Boy openly avoided the fight because they said stylistically it doesn't make a great fight. Or in other words, they don't want a fighter with skills and movement because they will beat him like Lara and Floyd did.

          Canelo can keep ducking Saunders. He might fight Saunders once Saunders shows some signs of slipping. That's the usual Canelo way.

            It won't hurt his ability to make money. But it will effect legacy

              His fans will never care. They don't even acknowledge the fact he arguably lost 2 fights to GGG and the fact that one was a draw.
              that would be 3 fights
