    I agree, HGH and EPO are serious fight changing PEDS. Make and average fighter into a nightmare.

    I made the same mistake when I saw the title, but having two halfway decent guys fight each other wouldn't be boxing would it? They've drafted in Forrest and Lazaridis to make up the numbers.

    Miller stops Kabayel. Big baby beat Dinu and Wach easier than Whyte and Pulev. Duahapas and Adamek couldn't deal with the pressure he brought. Can't think of many fighters in the division that could go toe to toe with him. Joshua would have got stopped if the fight took place last year, because of his poor punch resistance!

    The easy way to avoid confusion is to ask yourself if this is a genuine 50/50 where each guy is risking their rep to try and push themselves out of their comfort zone.

    If so, you've probably misunderstood who is fighting whom.

    Yeah, I just blame it on being a bit out of it due to the Covid-19 thing. With half a year without fights I started to confuse boxing with actually regulated sports in which it's normal for athletes and teams to be matched with their own level... stupid, I know :ohno

    That's for sure. It seems like all these so called contenders only face faded old guys or no hopers. Don't prospects fight each other on the way up anymore? Miller has had only 8 fights since 2016? Hardly the work rate of a hungry up and coming prospect, seems more like he's flying in a holding pattern.

    Miller wouldn`t be a nightmare for any elite heavy, he`s awful, PED`s or no PED`s.

    Well one thing he did do well on peds was keep coming forward. Plus I didn’t say he’d be a nightmare for an elite heavy just simply a nightmare.

    Kabayel has been a let down since he beat Chisora. Dude either has no ambition or is impossible to promote

    I think big baby is USA's best heavyweight. The thing is, who knows what type of shape he's in.

    I bet Miller has been juicing like there's no tomorrow during lockdown.

    Calling a blatant cheater America's best heavyweight... ouch! Don't think many Americans will be pleased with that statement.

    I bet when he makes his comeback he is still the same weight if not bigger, and still throwing 60-100 punches per round.

    I'm American. Our heavyweight program is nearly dead at the world class levels, and way behind what it used to be. Miller can fight. He's got fast hands, can take a punch, amazing energy, and good skills. The positive test sucked, but none of what I described has anything to to with PED's.

    When you consider Wilder is nearly 35, exposed with a fragile chin, and mentally crushed. Hunter is too small without power, and Ruiz jr has a gut and a half, yeah big baby could be USA's best heavyweight.
