Common sense says Anthony Joshua is NOT clean, how does he keep passing tests?

    I reckon he's juicing. the musclebound physiques always struggled in a boxing ring. Their stamina let's them down. i say peds are what's rewritten the rulebook tho. Just got the know how to mask them in the drug tests. Their all training hard....most of them are overweight and still getting found out for drug taking. Joshua's stacked and not. Think the difference is one knows what their doing and the others aren't quite in the know regarding passing tests etc. Joshua was a good amatuer but now it looks like he's at a point no one can hang with him and its looked that way for a while. You don't tend to see that kind of improvement in such a short space of time. Other guys no one can hang with we,rent starting their boxing career at 17 to fill their time. most you can see coming a mile away as in their making waves before their 17 etc.

    Ronnie Coleman and Jay Cutler were juiced to the moon. And they were over 300 pounds. And yet guys weighing less than them would pass drug tests and blow their lifts out the water.

    Dude......... To put on that much size rest and recovery is equally as important as training. The muscle ONLY grows during sleep if you have ate properly and trained properly.

    Yes you can train and train for your endurance, technique development and fitness but you cannot just build more muscle by training constantly. That is not how that works.

    Probably the same way others get away with it, there will always be chemists ahead of the curve. I don’t really think of Joshua as much more suspicious than others just because of his physique. Plenty of athletes who don’t look especially ripped have used PEDs. It’s just the nature of pro sports. It is what it is.

    He has money, so he hires the smartest team around to give him PEDs that are untraceable. Probably got the hookup back in the Olympics.

    Ugh, the trick is to never test while hot, not to beat the testing. Testing positive is a litmus test.

    Yeah, I assume he also pays top dollar for masking agents and his advisers are smart with his cycle. You don't just do one thing. They build a fortress with many walls around champion fighters. Your last line of defense is lawyers.

    NO, you are not understanding it. You guys keep spouting stuff about designer drugs and **** but guys keep getting popped. No one is going to beat the CiR test with flipping molecules around. The End.

    The way around is to NOT be cycling in the middle of the testing window, or have advanced notice of testing schedules and avoid the testing altogether.

    Lance Armstrong DID NOT BEAT TESTING with fancy designer jack at all. He beat it by knowing when and where the testers were and getting BS unicorn TUEs when he DID GET CAUGHT. Lance has failed test that you never heard about due to the TUE.

    Miller was 300lbs+ with insane output in the ring. You have to be a total ignoramus to not have seen that he was clearly a doper prior to him actually failing tests, especially with the knowledge of his previous doping violations.

    CIR can be beaten via diet manipulation and animal based testosterone. Microdosing is also a thing.

    Growth factors such as HGH have a very short detection window.

    EPO also has a short detection window and microdosing is also a thing.

    In addition, blood transfusion from your own clean stored blood is very effective for masking. It's cost prohibitive to constantly run all these tests so they tend to stick to things such as T:E unless there's a red flag.

    All failed drug tests, all of them are about as ripped as my old Uncle Danny, he is very old and loves his beer and kebabs.

    This "AJ MUST be on something, look at him" has to stop, you can't tell me all those fighters looked like they were juicing, the eye test isn't reliable enough to say "100% juicing" or "common sense says.."

    AJ is signed up to VADA and until he fails a test we have to give benefit of any doubt instead of just assuming, accusing or maybe hoping or wishing.
