The Smith brothers on Beterbiev's "atypical" test

Your favourite current boxer juices and so does mine and it's been like that for many years

Pacquiao juiced
Floyd juiced
Usyk juices
Aj juices
Fury juices
GGG juices
Canelo juices
Beterbiev juices
Smith bros juice

EVERYONE is on Steroids including Nate Diaz

Not EVERYONE gets caught

 

So does testing even worth it or does at atleast slow them down a bit? Like if they just allowed it would we see some very dangerous situations and injuries.

 

I personally think testing is worth it, especially in countries where they do 24/7, 365 days per year, random testing. But it's not as effective as the anti doping organisations want you to believe, it's greatest benefit is as a deterrent to athletes to stop them doping in the first place, especially as now they are keeping samples and testing them year later with more advanced tests and catching athletes now many years after they cheated and out them publicly.

I also do think it limits how much athletes dope as without it there would be no limits to how often and how much they cycle. Back in the 80's some of the East Germans had horrendous results from excessive doping from liver disease, cancer, infertility, children born with birth defects and some ended up disabled later in life because of the damage done to their bodies.

 

Kind of odd that the words safety and boxing would ever be used together. I guess your trying to limit the damage. So I guess testing limits usage some.

 

They knew about this before the fight with Beterbiev so why not pull out? Oh yeah need to make some money and if I lose I can use that as an excuse after the fight. Get over it hun

 

BINGO! BINGO BINGO!

I knew it would be coming as well right on time & not just by the loser of the fight but all those expert bias media to follow....

 

It means you can cheat more?
Look at the UFC fighters pre usada. Basically a bunch of pit bulls fighting in a cage lol

 

Every pro athlete on the planet is juiced to the gills.

 

Sour grapes.

 

All these people excusing PEDs saying 'everyone juices', it's just a cop-out so they don't have to judge fighters.
And it's simply not true.

Even if the majority do it, which isn't proven either, there would still be a significant sector who don't.
And within the juicing there are still levels of it.

If everyone truly did juice the testing would fall apart because they would be overloaded with failed tests, even if some escaped. There would just be so many failed tests it would make a mockery of everything.

It's not believable that everyone juices but they only catch a tiny number every year. Boxers are usually idiots, and would make mistakes far more often in their cycling/evasion and get caught all the time if everyone was on it. Only the bigger names have the smart teams handling them to avoid them messing up all the time.

It makes more sense that more of the top fighters do juice, especially the outliers, and they are better protected.

But let's take Paulie and Algieri, commenting on the HGH the other day. Do people really think these two were juicers? Paulie getting overpowered every fight and Algieri being 5'10 but getting beat up by 5'5 Pac and Provodnikov and even Khan matching him. What makes more sense, they're all on PEDs in those fights or the guys getting massively overpowered by people their size or even much smaller might be the clean ones?

 

I read somewhere that even Olympic shooters are tested for substances like Ambien which allows them to relax and shoot more accurately.

Every elite level athlete is looking to beat the system. Can't blame them, I would do the same.
