    look at Ali Adams he got TKOd by Audley Harrison
    And he loved steroids

    Larry Olubimawo he got knocked out in 1 round by Mcdermott he also Loves steroids

    point is do steroids make you a great fighter or do they even give you a advantage if your getting beat by nobodies after taking them?

    It doesn't make you a better boxer just look at

    Vargas vs Delahoya
    Berto vs. Ortiz

    It will make you stronger but either you have it or your don't

    PED's help an athlete by definition. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out.

    It's why most organizations/leagues separate "banned substances" from "performance enhancing drugs." I swear some people on this site think EPO is level with cannabis and both hinder boxers. Many of you are clueless. Many of you still think that only a small minority of boxers and all athletes use PED's.

    Try sitting down and committing a few hours to in depth research of the issue?

    Yes they are. Even your game of darts at the local pub will improve.

    Oh absolutely.

    But even when PED discussion was at its peak on here (when I joined in 2010-KTFO6), the people talking most about it refused to spend time studying.

    i think the worm is turning regarding the general public view on Peds?

    but very very very slowly..

    i think people would enjoy/understand sport better if they researched peds

    ped will help a fighter absorb punches better....becomes bulletproof in a way.

    dodong still hasn't spent a minute of his time doing any research despite bickering with him almost 5 years ago on the issue, I see. Still clueless despite being accusatory.

    That's dodong. Usually whatever he says; the opposite.
