BALCO Briggs

[Kid Achilles]

I seem to remember predicting Baldomir would either decision Mayweather or lose by decision. I said it would be a competitive fight, and was wrong about that. I never said Baldomir was guaranteed to win.

Once again, your ****** ass is getting it's panties in a knot because of something I said. I'm glad my posts mean so much to you, but try not to take what's said in this forum to heart.

OK, I've been looking into this matter seriously and have uncovered two major pieces of circumstance:

1. The WBO, the organization that endorses Briggs as champion, does not test for steroids.

2. Arizona, the state in which Briggs stopped Lyakhovich for the title, does not test for steroids.

This in no way means that he used steroids, but it is pivotal information to formulate a conclusion.

I think some investigative reporting is in order here, and you're just the guy to do it. IMO, boxing has been largely untouched by the steroid scandals of baseball, cycling, olympic sports, etc because of reasons unknown.

I hear what you're saying, but Briggs was originally going to fight WK at MSG for the IBF & would've had to pass a steroid test. I'm still not sure if he did juice though.

i know a guy who is 6'1 250 lbs benches 465 pounds..never even took creatine till he was in his early 20s... he was a linebacker... there are genetic freaks and the ones that are freaks there skill level seems not as good ..like briggs hes alright but nothing good hes just diesel

I believe Briggs is innocent until proven guilty, if he fails a test then you can rip him but for now you just don't know...

I still don't think Briggs did steroids, but just to make sure I'm going to pry a little further into the situation.

I dunno, I can't think of another fighter who looks more juiced than Briggs.

[AKATheMack]

you apparently havent seen Tye Fields but anyways my homeboy is the Midwest Regional kickboxing champ and hes 6'2" 240lbs of pure muscle with 21in biceps and doesnt even do weight training let alone juice so to say that Briggs is juicing for a fact is wrong

There is really no doubt whatsoever that Briggs has used some form of steroids in recent years. The only question is "How recently?"
