    Do you think Golovkin used steroids on his prime?

    I've been very vocal about being disappointed by the fact that he looked different post VADA testing.

    It took me a while to accept it. But I already made a few threads on it.

    His body has changed from when he was 31 years old.

    Is it explained by age? or is it explained because he stopped roiding?

    Not to mention that he lost speed and power.

    I'm not really sure if he was using steroids. But his body DID change. He has more fat and less definition and muscle in some areas. Which can be explained by not using PEDs anymore, or age.

    What do you think?

    Was he on PEDs during these years?

    As you are the body stops producing as much testosterone and all those things you described will naturally happen. I don't think he was, but you never know

      It happened so fast though... against Wade he no longer had the body he used to have one year before.

        Yea I get what your saying and looking at pictures you can see a small difference but nothing major. Could be his body isn't able to train like it used to so he learned to slow down and do less. I don't think the difference between pre wade and post wade is a big difference, I think he's been gradually getting a little softer and less explosive. We all age differently

          stop throwing shade. Is it possible yes, but you can apply the same to every athlete, and you will see a physical decline as fighters reach their mid/late 30s. Also, his body hasn't really changed that much so if you can show picks of what you are referring to that would help your case.

          Just because he didn't blow Jacobs and canelo out of the water doesn't mean you have to find an explanation like roids to make it right in your head.

            As an AM in Russia: Likely
            As a pro in Germany: unlikely
            As a pro in the US: likely.

                I think its clear he uses PED's because all the guys that slurp him regularly all the sudden are acting brolic as hell on NSB.
















                Just joking!!

                  I don’t see it. He looked in shape against Canelo and Jacobs.

                  Which apparent physical factors are you using to come to that opinion?

                    I think it's weird. He did recover his body for his last two fights a bit.

                    But in 2016 he looked so soft.
