    I think the same. Hearn is nervous every time reporters ask him about VADA testing.Hearn even said that Joshua would fight in the US only if tested by UKAD if not then no fight.

    I'm just surprised there's not been an AJ / PEDS thread before

    Incorrect, having a "ripped" look has nothing to do with being on steroids.

    Some guys just have un-natural looking bodies.

    If he tests positive for something then fine.

    What advantage do steroids give you in boxing? It wouldn`t really increase your power, having ripped muscles doesn`t mean you will punch harder it`s not as simple as that, speed, skill and defense come into fighting also, it isn`t like sprinting.

    Joshua haters cling on to 3 things.. No chin, no stamina and he is on peds. He showed chin and stamina in his last fight so now they are focusing more on peds.

    I'm not a hater but everything points to roid abuse.

    It gives you greater recovery and endurance during training, which means more time spent improving such things such as power, speed,agility and explosiveness.

    If there was no benefit millions of athletes across all sports wouldn't risk taking them.

    No it isn't. Joshua may well be juicing but the the notion that it is impossible to have a physique like that without PED's is simply not true.

    People who post these types of accusations should be banned. I'd understand if there had been a failed test (like Povetkin) but there hasn't and he is rigorously tested.

    Even in Povetkins case, he has now been cleared and reinstated so the people still accusing him should be banned.

    Haye looks way more roided and his excuse is veganism.
