Until he fails a test, you can't really accuse him.

I would be interested in knowing how and when Briggs was tested for steroids.

sure you can

I don't know why so many of these heavyweights feel the need to be so big when it's clearly a hindrance to them. Even if he is juicing or whatever, whats the benefit of being that big, rather than be 240lbs?

[Southpaw16]

he is clearly taking something. There has just been vast changes in his body type. He looks like he has spent 16 hours a week lifting weights for the past ten years, and boxer don't do that.

Your skull does not grow to accomodate weight gain though. Highly supicious.

not to be a prick but when you do take growth hormones your head does grow,or can i should say, i have friends that juiced and took GH's and my friends and their friends heads grew and there jaws got huge. they were full on wieght lifting geeks, it was their life. they had the full on muscle chins. no joke, i've seen it first hand. it's not all extreme but there is a obvious difference and it is noticable after they have taken it for a while.

plus taking growth hormones is really dangerous and that is a major part of it too, the fact that it can make some of your bones grow. that **** aint safe half of growth hormones are for large animals and ****. it's ****ing different hormones going into your body that shouldn't be there, it's going to **** anybody up and have some funky ass effect from taking it.

he was 228lbs when he fought Lewis which was in 1998. He was 268lbs for this fight. thats a 40lb gain in 8yrs. Averages out to 5lbs a year gain. very possible without steroids. But ofcoarse that doesn't mean he doesnt juice, just pointing that it would be possible to gain that much muscle in that long a time without the use of steroids.

While logic would lead you to believe he definitely juiced, before I am so quick to accuse him you have to keep in mind that Briggs is a genetically gifted dude. He has always been enormous, has always had lean muscle mass. I have seen him in person before and his back is wider than the ****in street, hes a hulk.

So him adding bulky muscle mass to his already massive frame doesn't seem like its impossible to be done naturally. However he looked more like he should be on stage with Ronnie Coleman than in a boxing match. And we all know what those guys are on...

So basically I'm on the fence here, not so fast to say someone with Briggs physique CAN'T have gained it naturally but even with that said its still very posisble he needled up.
