    Just wait until you/Team Klitschko go to London and fight Joshua who is on everything and not being tested.

    What do you suggest we do? Blindly believe that elite boxers that are paid millions and risk their lives in the ring will no go the extra mile to gain an advantage? There was a reason Floyd needed that iv, pac feared needles, mosley testified against Balco etc etc. The boxing world is a testing ground for top notch pharma and only randomly tested Vada participants are somewhat clean.

    Boxing is the bush leagues for PED use. Most everyone here is clueless to how advanced real doping is in the major sports.

    **On your question of what to do, there's nothing to do. We can only take things as they come. But taking the attitude that all are cheating is a cop out. You picked those three guys because you think they were obvious, however only one is actually free of any incidents. Being afraid of needles isn't evidence of guilt, however getting caught red handed using IVs is, and so is evidence turning up from a Federal sting operation in the case of Mosley. What we shouldn't do in the absence of actual proof is state that a boxer is guilty as a matter of fact. I dunno what your specific agenda is but it seems mixed. You want to make Pac guilty yet he's been thru VADA quite a number of times. It gets too murky real fast, so for me I take it on a case by case basis.

    The fact they chose Ostarine is beyond bush league.....meldonium, and now a SARM. He's got some real top notch "advisors".

    Saying your afraid of needles whilst having tattoos is fishy to me but your right pac is Vada tested so he has at least taken steps to show he is more than likely clean.

    I heard Vlad is doing Vada I didn't see what Joshua would be using probably just UKAD which is an absolute joke but technically counts as year round testing.

    Ryabinsky now claims Povetkin thought it was ovaltine, the breakfast drink, that was being injected into his body.

    You're right, to me those 3 are obvious ped users. Even more so than the tattoos, what tells me that Pac was on peds is the fact that ever since Floyd made a big deal in the media with his accusations of Pac's doping, Pac's performance has dropped drastically. Yes, there are other factors like age but Vada testing made Pac transform from an offensive god to a mere mortal.

    Obviously, rich Americans like Floyd get preferential treatment when it comes to testing in boxing, which is why usada is the joke that it is. Vada is the last bastion against ped use and since it is used by a select minority of boxers, I say with confidence that others who are tested by local commissions are on Peds.

    As for my agenda, I don't really have one on this topic. I believe everyone on top cheats, because boxing just like many injury prone sports requires an athlete to subject himself to a level of stress regular protein shakes can't handle.
