I'm not even sure meat making you fail drug tests is even possible. Steroids have to be specially design to be taken orally, and the PEDs given to the animal will already be at a low concentration. Not to mention surviving cooking and digestion.
Yes I’d say he is but I don’t blame him everyone is at it. Not being cynical just being realistic. It still amazes me that people think Usain Bolt was clean.
Eddie was very, very coy in a recent interview when asked about fighters being tested when they are abroad. The obvious intention behind the question was that Joshua is in Dubai all the time, but Hearn kept using examples of fighter’s going to America & how they need to tell vada who can then test them over there. Or something to that effect. But you could just tell by his body language that the rules are different for certain other countries *cough* *cough* Dubai. Edit - i found the interview. It's at 11mins. If Joshua was being legitimately tested in Dubai then Hearn would have used Dubai as the example as many people have raised this question. But he doesn't. When this fella asks the question it is just screaming out "JOSHUA IN DUBAI". Plenty of other times Eddie will say "I know where you are going with this....." but not here. This content is protected
Pretty telling...basically admits UKAD won’t test abroad and there will be places vada don’t bother with either...
Which is what I was saying a while back in this thread. https://www.boxingforum24.com/threads/whyte-wants-vada-testing.623904/
Interesting clip - he's unusually intense and expressive in response to that question. He also tugs/scratches his ear almost immediately when answering which is a well known body language tell for when someone is lying. I wouldn't normally read too much into an interview question like that, but his response to that was out of character.
I Noticed he has been getting smaller since the PED rumours came out when he was at face off with a huge turtle shell HGH gut...i cant remember which fight....I have also thought he does not carry the same power that he used to when he had the HGH gut...
Wondered that myself tbh. Probably reading too much into it but the Takam, Parker and Povetkin fights it did seem like AJ was not hitting quite as hard as he used to. If AJ fought Whyte, Breazeale or even Charles Martin in 2019 would he demolish them in quite the same manner as he did previously ?? Not so sure.
Let us face some 'facts'... After Olympics AJ was not big enough for the new SuperHeavyweights out there....He went away and bulked up and came back bigger and stronger....They he broke a bone in his back and went 'away' to recover yet put on more size ..How you can be laid up with a broken back and do that is quite a mystery ...He got bigger and stronger until these rumours of PEDs and HGH gut came along and he has steadily got smaller and smaller since... I am 100% convinced AJ has taken PEDs ....I am not convinced he takes them now..This could be put down to trying to get fitter so he doesnt gas or..Is it really worth the risk of it all come crashing down while Hearn can stick a load of bums in front of him...Hence the Wilder fiasco of negotiations ...
Yeah nice spot pal. Eddie Hearns own personal body language tell for when he’s lying is helpfully when he’s FCKING TALKING so no need for the cereal box body language lessons
