Comments Thread For: Boxing's Horrible Week Makes It Clear That We Can Do Better

Some posts goes after Pacman but what about Floyd he has tests in the past that are su****ious and using illegal injections for the Pac fight and others that can be used to mask illegal substances.

You're reaching. We would not be talking about doping tests (real blood tests, not the BS urine tests by state commissions) if it werent for Mayweather. Love him or hate him, Floyd is the primary reason for the current level of PED testing. So, you should love him for making the sport safer.

Mosley and Holyfield never failed a drug test either. So what.

And when someone does test positive, its just as meaningless. They allowed Whyte to fight, Hearns knew about it, said nothing, and his opponent was apparently never informed or given the opportunity to decline the fight even though Whyte was tested positive for dianobol. If the opponent and public isnt even going to be told of a positive test until AFTER the fight, what is even the point of testing.

I say just get rid of all testing. Its meaningless.

Get rid of testing!?!?
Holyfield, Moseley and Barry Bonds, etc. never failed testing but they still got caught by Being associated with BALCO.
The truth will always come out just like Armstrong and others that were suspect.
If Pac was or still on one he should get exposed eventually.

Wrong! Pac is being questioned when in fact, he's never failed a drug test in the 24 years. It's a narrative that has yet to be proven and appears to be fueled by jealousy because there's no other logical explanation.

I was just being sarcastic... There is no way Pac could still be on PED’s all these years and not get caught (like these other cheaters who gets caught so easily) LOL.
I truly believe that if you’re a playa hater, I mean a pac hater.
PED’s IS THE MOST CONVENIENT WAY TO DOWN GRADE HIS ACCOMPLISHMENT

I believe most cheat was caught by urine. Lance Armstrong was exposed through urine from his B sample years later.
Still a fan of Floyd though. And Pac.

Wrong. People are on Pac's case b/c there is no logical explanation for his ability to carry his power up through 8 weight classes. Hes 40 and performs for like he's 30. Either he is superhuman, or he has some help. Btw, I consider Pac an all time great and exceptional human, but use your common sense bud.

Sure there is a logical explanation, people just don't wanna hear it because of whatever reason. The people who believe Pac is on steroids, talk as if the guy started boxing when he was 25, and not 16. He started as a flyweight at 16, he's naturally gonna grow in size throughout his career. Hence his ability to seemingly move through weight classes unimpeded.

Also, his performance is FAR from how it was when he was 30. In all of his previous 3 performances there was a clear slow down in his speed, and his power has dipped noticeably over the years as well. His critics just choose to ignore all of this, just to have a reason to criticize him.

And don't forget that he was also on a 3rd world diet back then when he only feasted on just soy sauce over rice. Probably lucky if had fish to go with it...
All before he could afford proper diet with all the nutrients.

Any medical doctor will tell that your brain �� not suppose bounce off it’s skull it sits in a fluid inside your head . So every time a punch is landed brain bounces instant damage even from a jab . This sport should be the most strict when comes to cheating or I refer to evil scum who **** with hand wraps and of course PEDS . DW got busted with Dball I’m 6’2 230 never did roids but a lot of my friends did and Dball made them 3 times stronger in all free weight exercise. My buddy be like bro do one cycle you look like triple H . No thanks . Not worth damage and ***** **** he has now . Now we all know where DW new power has come from last couple fights !! This is beyond sad that the big money makers get away and lower level guys end up underground cause they don’t have millions for designer peds! Hope both fighters RIP !! We as fans should unite for once instead of bicker call out everyone big in the sport !
