      If I am being honest. The only one that I would suspect is Jermell. He had virtually very little power on his punches and people may mention a style change but something in me tells that is not the reason. He does fight more aggressively now and he likely kicked up his strenggt training which is totally plausible. But if you ever see Jermell in person he is really thin and even his punching style doesn't seem like that of a power puncher.

      Jermall on the other hand is huge compared to his little brother. But he has had power since he started which makes since just based off of his size and fighting style. He fights like a heavy handed fighter. Jermall could very well move up to LHW because he has the stature.

        There is nothing about the Charlos enrolling on VADAs site, so what is the drug testing?
        As WBC champs they can potentially be tested at any time, as can anybody ranked in the top 15. But whenever the exact numbers were revealed it showed VADA was testing about 10 fighters per month, if that. They've had issues with the WBC over funding and so most VADA tests seem to be when they are hired for a particular fight. Charlos chose not to have testing for their fights.

          I focused on that because it was literally the first thing you said, as if by some miracle they just all of a sudden acquired power when both have shown since they have been professionals that they have power, aside from Jermell being more technically minded coming up but now tries to sit down more on his punches. If you just want to talk about them not doing Vada tests then that's valid but it was like you were ensinuating they are on PEDs and have power because of that
