    "Does this aesthetic sense exist in the lower forms?"

    There’s probably 100s of boxers doping, Ryan was just too dumb to get caught

    If Garcia really does end up getting suspended he'll most likely get the Canelo treatment and be out for 6 months tops. Garcia will be right back after his supposed suspension is lifted.

    Ryan is a massive clown. Poor character. He seeks attention and validation at every turn.

    Farewell, young man, farewell. Have a good, moral, and respectful life after your pugilistic career. Love who you want to love,
    dance with whom you want to dance, and don't forget to smell the flowers in the garden of life.

    Now **** off.

    His win means about as much as Lance Armstrongs.

    What a drama queen. Smh. Hey, if you get caught cheating you get caught cheating, man up, or get out, if that's what you want to do.

    Dumb? Absolutely, the guy is as thick as a brick.

    But he got caught and needs to be punished. As soon as they stop punishing the ones who test positive everybody will be doping.

    Yep, spot on analogy. Just like Armstrong, his win will remain 100% valid. You know, because the rest of the top 10 in every year that Lance won the Tour de France, were guilty of doing the exact same thing as he was.

    It will remain invalid, there is nothing to discuss, it's like black and white. Ryan got caught cheating and it doesn't mean everybody else is cheating.

    Ryan could be a p4p talent if he actually trained properly and dedicated himself to the sport. No, seriously. Had he actually trained for Haney and gotten down to the weight properly, then I believe that instead of only staggering Haney in the first, he would have KOed him in just one round. With his physical gifts, his speed, his power, his overall athleticism and the massive marketing push he's received, he could really be a top level star in the sport. He could be so much than he is if he just dedicated himself to the sport properly.

    You do realize, that Lance Armstrong, like Ryan Garcia had no actual advantage over the men he beat right? Process that.

    Meh, he'll be back and Haney will still have tears in his eyes by that time, regardless of how long. I'm still pretty indifferent about the substance everyone is losing their mind over, acting Iike he took liquid kryptonite. It's a trace level of an absolutely irrelevant "drug" I doubt many people hating on Ryan even know what listerine(that ostrich stuff lol) does.
