    Fcuk me so now we have supplements tainted with Dianabol, next joke please.

    It's obvious he was on the gear and either slightly missed the time slot or more likely the masking agent didn't do it's job properly.

    This is where I am with it. I’m fine with him coming back to box just like I’m fine with Fury, no double standards here, but let’s not pretend that dianabol accidentally got in his sample.

    Well the actual ‘cheating’ claim is objective as no other riders who placed in the top 15 could be awarded any of Armstrong’s 7 Tour de France titles due to the wide spread doping in cycling. To quote his team ‘our guy cheated better than the other guys’.

    I know being caught cost Armstrong millions in settlements but fundamentally its worth considering that since 1997, the Lance Armstrong Foundation has raised $470 million to help people fight against cancer.

    If sport was completely clean, you’d still get the exact same winners just with reduced personal bests. The athletes who excel do so through drive, determination, hard work and natural inclination.

    I’m not defending it, but it is what it is

    people have tested positive in the past due to vats to mix supplements being used to mix poor supps from companies that sell legit ones. nt saying its the supp but where the supp was made who knows?

    When there are tens of millions of dollars at stake in sport, good gains don’t cut it when you can have amazing gains

    He's a professional athlete not some gym rat. Where's he getting his supplements from, the market?

    The metabolites on Kid Galahad's were too small to have a measurement for, but he was given a 2 year ban, reduced to 18 months on appeal

    That's a fundamentally false statement.
    One of the things doping can do is correct a fatal flaw, and certainly in endurance sports that can completely change the original result.
    In Armstrong's case he wasn't even a tour cyclist and just became one with the use of doping. Holyfield made himself into a HW by using HGH and just imagine what happens if you would put someone like Price on DynEPO. You just get very different results.
    And then there's the amount of doping they can/do use. We now know Armstrong + team had someone on a motocycle following them to provide them whenever they needed a boost. No off days, that the competition suffered. To add it all up there were also guys that didn't dope (can you imagine) and still performed better as most.

    As I said on July 25th, the sensible and more astute will wait for the results...

    Oh look, we are fighting tonight in Saudi, not the UK...

    It was so obvious from the very off. Reeks of PBC to me.

    I'm not saying he's guilty, I'm just saying that their reason for dropping the case is absolutely ridiculous.

    Anyone who takes an illegal substance will have trace elements in their blood at some point (depending on half-life). How much was in his system? On what basis do they determine something too small to be of consequence? What scientific methods or analysis do they use to determine this? What is their reasoning?

    It just shows that if you take something long enough before a test you can get away with it - particularly if the fighter is backed by a promoter with big pockets.

    Again, I'm not saying he's guilty. No one will ever know whether he took something knowingly or not. But, the whole system is a farce and needs to be sorted out ASAP with far, far more transparency, so we can understand what is going on and why certain decisions have been made.

    Again did anybody see the Joe Rogan podcast with Victor Conte. I'd say that fella knows a bit about doping and such. He stated that no athlete in their right mind wonder enter a contest whilst on steroids.

    You reap the benefits when you have come off them. It's alright saying there was only trace amounts in his system but that doesn't mean they haven't helped him massively in the weeks or months before the bout.

    So some people are accepting findings of the initial testing results of adverse findings without the facts but with wont accept the findings of the investigation conducted by the same organisation witht facts stated. Some people do appear very selective and agenda filled.
