So are u saying roids gave him stamina? The guy fought 15 rounds early in his career, well before project omega. Does that mean pro bodybuilders have great stamina from roids? I don’t doubt Evander took gear to bulk up, but maintaining his stamina only proves that he worked hard at it. There’s nothing that Evander has ever shown that suggests he would ever “gas out easy”. The dude bounces on his toes all night. Take sum gear, work out, add 20lbs, and see if your cardio improves without working on it. It’s like saying Roids improved Bonds eyesight.
As far as Fields is concerned, the roids(and we all know he took plenty) allowed him to train harder and longer with faster recovery, hence better endurance. The roids packed on more muscle for strength and power. Roids are rampant in hockey you'd never know it based on little upper body bulk on these guys but the deal is recovery from ridiculous cardio and injury.
The man is a cheat big time. He'll have to confess to the Lord one day about it.Comment

Actually the roids Bonds took improved his vision where the ball slowed down so to speak. I am not making this up. I believe it's called the clear. That was why he was able to hit the bad pitches they threw at him. Watch the Expose they did on HBO. It's explained very clearly

Back to Lightweight for you, Shane.
The only boxer who I've given the benefit of the doubt to is James Toney, because he didn't take a PCT. Nobody takes PED's without a PCT unless they don't know they're taking PED's.
They ended up ****ing up his body.Comment

So you giving James a pass?Comment

James has documentation from a doctor that he was prescribed medication for a torn bicep. I give him a pass for that reason, and the fact that no athlete in the world would knowingly take a steroid without taking a PCT afterwards. (post cycle therapy) a PCT is what you take to get your natural test rates back to normal, block estrogen, and keep your gains. Without it it just destroys your natural testosterone and gives you major health issues, which is what's happened to Toney since then. That's why I give Toney a pass.Comment

But yet
That is a big reason he is #3 on my all time great heavyweight champion’s list. You could literally take Evander and match him with Jim Jeffries, Jack Johnson, Jack Dempsey, Gene Tunney, Max Baer, Joe Louis, Jersey Joe Walcott, Ezzard Charles, Floyd Patterson, Ingemar Johansson, Sonny Liston, Cassius Clay/Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier etc....and interstingly enough, Evander actually went 15 with the Camden Buzzsaw and fought older versions of Holmes and Foreman.
In any weightclass Toney smokes him 10/10.Comment
