    Who is your favorite natty heavyweight? Fighter who isn't using gear?

    My favorite natty heavyweight is Dillian Whyte, and second Jarell Miller and third Luis Ortiz. Povetkin comes fourth.

    Heavyweights which actually benefited off PEDS:

    Holyfield for a short while

    That's about it

    AJ becomes a big bulky lump who can't move under his own weight.

    Miller it will never help

    Helped Whyte bulk up to a leaner 250 pounds, but he's another big useless lump.

    Ortiz is 150 years old, PEDs will just put him closer to a heart attack

    Only helped the Klits to get bigger in the 90's whilst they were teenagers

    Skills pay the bills kids.

    What did Fury do against Christian Hammer that indicates he gained an advantage from his indicated PED usage due to a borderline drug failure that wasn't raised for 1.5 years?

    Tyson Fury is infallible, a gift from god. Possibly Jesus himself or atleast the second coming.

    If he doesn't benefit then why risk doing it?

    If I had to work out a reason why Tyson would have took nandrolone, i'd say it would probably down to going into training camp with Hughie in that period who has clearly used steroids at points in his career and managed to evade getting popped. It still makes no sense given Fury was one fight away from his Wlad fight...and UKAD didn't take action against him and Hughie for over 1 year (weak evidence)

    It's all very fishy & UKAD couldn't prove anything beyond unreasonable doubt in court.

    I mean, that would most likely be Furys side of the story. Would you believe that if that was anyone else's excuse?

    Typically when fighters get popped it's not 1.5 years after the fact....and nandrolone is technically produced naturally in the body and Fury passed 10 tests during this 1.5 year period (without knowing he had an "adverse finding")

    So it's a bit of a different case study.

    I sussed out that "natty" meant natural but assumed you meant a guy that weighs over 200 without bulking (ie not a jumped-up cruiser)
