in the past week AJ has posted himself on snapchat being drug tested 3 times. These tests appear to be blood tests aswell as urine. Despite this, many people still think that AJ is on PEDs. Ironically it comes from people who seem to be die hard Fury fans, someone who has actually failed & missed a drug test. The main reason is his physique, but most of the boxers at heavyweight who pop dirty are out of shape (Fury, Ortiz, Teper, Thompson etc) Also its common knowledge that alot of Africans or people of African origin have a natural ability to gain muscle whilst having low body fat. I personally think that all elite level sportsmen are suspect but I think people are clean until proven dirty. Do people really think AJ is juicing? And is there any other arguement apart from his physique? Or could AJ be immune to getting caught as he is the most lucrative boxer on the planet?
Years ago I was amazed by a recovering cancer victim returning from that horrendous illness to win the Tour De France Then going on to defend his TDF title six more times ! I never believed that this could be drug fueled and it was all a massive con. Many of us wont believe these athletes again . There is a difference in 2018 the testing labs are more advanced than they have ever been . We should have more confidence in the results now than ever before . Are the athletes and their drug suppliers stupid or even clever enough now to beat the labs
Could be. Could be that 10 years from now they figure out wtf hes been taking. Or it could be that he used to juice. Or that he never has juiced. Fun fact: Steroids can have lasting changes once used. Steroids can change the body and it will keep the changes.
This will be one of those cases, if it is true, that will only come out after AJ's career is over when he's won the belts, fame, money etc. I mean, they check the guy constantly, I doubt he actually is taking them. They'd have surely found him out by now. They know of his drugs use earlier on in his life, and they take the checks dead seriously. I'm sure he has like tests every single day in camp. They monitor the situation around Joshua very,very heavily and thoroughly because they know of his history. I personally think he has just worked as hard as possible to get that weight on and those muscles, and for now it's just best to admire what a physical machine AJ is.
The answer to one question answers your question.. Has Joshua tested positive for a banned substance?
He's been tested many many times so no. Would be nice to give him credit because he works extremely hard in the gym and is dedicated to his sport unlike quite a few other HWs i could mention. I'm no fan boy by the way. I think he's pretty limited. But he works very hard to be the best he can be.
i would have a guess that AJis the most out of comp tested boxer in the world i read a article when he said a while ago that he has to have an app on his phone so that drug testers can track him and turn up unnanounced for random spot checks and that they happen often. i know there are all the deep state conspiracy theorists abounding now who will say the drug testers are in collusion with team AJ /the testers/chemists/lab workers/ even the computer that churns out his biological profile over the last 6 years. you need scientists / doctors /etc etc and knowledge of when you are going to be tested to cheat the tests. those that beleive AJ has these are numerous. me im doubtful /i think if he was on something he would have been caught by all the random testing he has had to do. mo farah was accused last year after the salazar probe / mo farah team then gave them his drug passport testing chart nd it had not changed in 10 years and in the time he had had 100s of tests. i saw a scientist come on and speak techhy but basically it ammounted to if an athlete is on something even if he is not caught the body chemistry changes according to what you are on and the testers then retrospecytavily ban you. its what happened to all the russians state sponsered programme.
Im a big supporter of AJ and am hoping he can go on and dominate the division as the next great champion, but... yes I think he is doping.
Yes, the UK doping control are all over him like a rash. He gets tested like twice a day or something if I remember correctly. He said in an interview with Kugan last year I'm sure that he gets randomly tested all the time.
Nobody knows. Getting tested and passing doesn't mean you haven't as far as i can tell. Having big muscles for sure doesn't mean you have.
