    This is the opposite of Benn again. When people said he was "juiced to the gills" the PR came back with "trace amount of a fertility drug found in eggs". No mention that it's also a testosterone booster.

    Helenius may well have been at Hulk Hogan levels of steroids but unelss people have better information, we don't know. Sounds like we won't get to know unless Helenius's management choose to say so.

    All whilst playing the victim, may as well just change their company slogan to 'its always someone else's fault'

    The whole point of professional boxing is being able to sell a product to the public. Otherwise you're just getting punched in the face because you're a madman. Well the paying public want to see supermen and gladiators at their absolute best. If that's your chosen profession and your one of the 1% not on gear then you're a complete ******.

    If that was a Helenius performance whilst juicing, then how bad would he have really been without?

    Exactly. The paying punters got what they wanted. A big lad coming in in decent shape with a good record and giving it a go for a good few rounds before getting flattened by the ticket seller. This is what professional boxing is all about.

    its no what it should be about if your claiming to be among the best you should be in with opponents that have a chance no a 39 year old fella who boxed in castle fury faced chisora last year who was crap also wilder flattened helenius he was more motivated then but still no one of the best opponents he was already flattened by Washington ffs usyk he seems to be more keen on facing anybody

    What's the point in any of this? He still fought, Whyte still fought Rivas despite failing a test, Miller is still somehow active. Drugs testing in boxing is a joke.

    Well well. Maybe he had a drink of McGregor's stout the night before.

    For all those who say we should allow PEDs in boxing.

    https://www.express.co.uk/sport/boxing/1687437/George-Groves-Eduard-Gutknecht-boxing-news

    This happenened to this poor guy due to a combination of a very incompetent referee and corner who allowed this warrior to be battered leaving him with serious life changing injuries.

    Imagine the fallout if George Groves tested positive after this fight?

    Groves is haunted by this fight and imagine how he would feel if he did take PEDs.
    He was fighting in the official PED corner designated for Whyte
