    Victor Conte says PEDs have their greatest effect not while you're taking them, but in the period after you've stopped taking them and they've left you're system.

    Before fighting Kovalev, Ward needed to fight two unknown opponents who would not have enough clout to demand VADA testing. So he fought Barrera and Brand... without VADA testing. In this period, Ward took PEDs.

    When the time came to fight Kovalev, Ward enrolled in VADA because the PEDs had already left his system. But the effect of the PEDs was at its greatest in these fights - especially the rematch.

    From low blows to being on PEDs. It's good that you crybabies are slowly admitting Kovalev got sparked though, so we're definitely making progress. :lol:

    Which renders VADA pointless, by your logic.

    if you eliminate every pro athlete that uses peds, we will have to start watching grade school sports.

    All of the excuses is just getting too much now. Give it up, Kovalev is not your child.
