    Yes, I agree. But that would be a gradual improvement, right? As opposed to a sudden, devestating one. And with Froch - he had the stamina/toughness from the beginning, me thinks. His intelligence/tactics/experience are what's improvement for him. Things which develop naturally for any good fighter.

    There's not a drug that help you take punches!
    Being ripped has **** all to do with it either, you can take all the steroids you want and not be ripped being ripped is down to diet!
    There are many different types of PEDs, 1s what make you stronger and faster liker decker & winstrol (sprinters like these) then there's EPO what increases Red blood cells putting your endurance through the roof (marathon runner and tour de France athletes usually get these) then there are 1s which can help you loose weight as long as you diet like amphetamine's and diuretics! Fighters who get caught using these should be banned for life (more so the steroids & EPO which boost performance in a big way) no ifs or buts!

    Well, I was reading an interview with a Dr the other day who said that steroids would help develop neck muscles which would undoubtably help your chin and punch resistance.

    Neck muscles don't help your chin!

    Why? You're essentially adding muscles to absorb the impact of punches.

    Are you a doctor.

    Strengthening the neck surely must help, Ok it doesn't mean you'll be KO free but as Shaun said would help take punches better.

    A lot of one punch KO's come from temple shots and punches to ear drum (head punch KO's). They are hard punches to come back from. Mess the equilibrium up. That's why Sam Webb's display against Arron was astonishing IMO. Sheer bravery..
