Vitali tested positive for PEDs. Those are the facts.THat is really a lie. You know the truth as well. Vitaly Klitschko was training for the Amateur Olympics as a super heavyweight. He had a nagging torn thigh muscle. His dr. prescribed a medication to heal it. It contained a marginally banned substance. He was passed clean until he mentioned this medication, and was asked to retire from the tam. His brother Wladimir, picked as the Heavyweight entrant, moved up into his place and won the Gold.
That's the whole story.
Your foolish assertion tthat they both do it is just hot air...and not very hot either. They always both were meticulously clean in every test thereafter.
So the "Vitaly scandal" was only a soap bubble, easily birst. But......lets be friends, Since you can read minds and prognosticate, how about giving me the winning ticket number for the next big lottery...???
And looking at Wladimir's muscle mass after 40 years old makes him suspect as well.Comment

Suspect, suspect, suspect.... There is a saying from the Ancient ***ish Sages which basically says..."Respect...but Suspect.."
Klitschko actually revealed this PED item in his autobiography, it was not otherwise known, because it happened in 1996. I happened to know about it shortly after it happened, because I was deeply involved with amateur boxing at that time. If you look it up you'll get the REAL story. Paul Harvey style.,Comment

Mayweather vs Toney
Voting for Mayweather and not Toney seems inconsistent. Tony was exposed taking PEDs while Mayweather was exposed taking a PED masking IV. Are you giving Mayweather a pass because the masking agent worked? The fact Floyd used a banned masking agent is enough to question his integrity. But if you’re gonna give Mayweather a pass for using methods on WADAs banned substance and methods list then you have to give Tony the same consideration. All I’m saying is be fair and consistent.Comment

Fernando Vargas really is one of the most overrated fighters on Boxingscene. He lost all but one of his big fights (Quartey, Winky got robbed) and got retired at 29 yrs old by Ricardo Fcking Mayorga. Tim Bradley's career was far better.I can’t even fathom how he ranks Tim Bradley above Israel Vasquez, Ivan Calderon or Fernando Vargas?
Bradley’s greatest claim to fame was surging an overrated Provnikov that lets not forget got beat down by Algieri and got Nonsense decisions over Pacquiao.
The win over JMM is nice but Juan Manuel Marquez was fairly past it in years and well above his natural weight.
I’m not cool with the Lights Out disses Either. NEXT!
Safe to say I won’t be checking for
Anymore of Dan’s opinions.Comment
