Is Usyk the only clean champion in boxing

You always say Inoue has feasted on featherfists. But he fought donaire and nery. He’s about to fight MJ too. Meanwhile what “punchers” has Usyk faced? Joshua, Dubois and Gassiev. Far less skilled operators than Nery or Donaire. And let’s look at Joshua’s resume vs prime contenders

Parker UD
Ruiz loss
Ruiz UD
Usyk lossx2
Dubois loss

Not one KO vs a prime contender in 6 fights. With MJ, they’ll have faced the same number of punchers and Inoue’s punchers were far more skilled and have better KO records vs top guys

 

Usyk is cleaner than a mountain spring , fresher than an ocean breeze , when he cycles - than only on his bike .
he always speaks nothing but the thruth , he always wants to be only good for the sport !

And the most important thing , now all together :

"Usyk never ducks , he fights anybody anywhere"

@Serge : may i ask respectfully , how old are you ?

 

I was about 125 lbs at 20. 10 years later I was about 182. And no, not all of it has been muscle gain.

Hypothetically speaking, if Usyk actually put on 60lbs of muscle, he would be super lean and very low in body fat, maybe close to 10% if at 20 he had visible abs. Clearly he is not close to 10%, and I would argue that he is above 15% even.
Heck, he looks a lot softer now than he did back in 2018, despite clearly packing on more muscle.

 

Wow, what a thread.

 

Guesswork gone mad.

Truth is nobody knows.

 

One of the best things I've ever read on here

 

Don't know if you wanna go down that road, hoss. Considering you're like the Anti-Serge with your non-stop hate posting on Usyk. What grown man spends that much time repeating himself and getting in a tizzy over another grown man and who he decides to fight and when?

 

The original and best juice: Whiskey.

 

It's a boxing forum. That's what happens here.

 

What makes you think that Usyk doesn't use enhancements? It's kind of a romantic notion at this point in the game.

 

I personally believe they're all on something

At the top it's a game of inches so Anything helps

 

Steroids have a half-life. The half life of many steroids is multiple months at therapeutic doses. So many steroids would simply be unusuable to use for 6 weeks and then fight 6 weeks later. This is why those fighters don’t 4x a year or even 3x. They can get in a few cycles without testing dirty. Inoue fighting 4x a year limits him from taking many PEDs

 

Yeah, that dog don't hunt. Plenty of steroids have a rather short time to be detectable in the body. There are also ways of gaming that system, like with microdosing. Or with getting yourself someone who knows what they're doing and gets you undetectable stuff like Conte. You have to be an idiot like Tyson Fury to take a long lasting steroid like Nandralone and do nothing to mask it. The half life of EPO is FIVE HOURS. Five. Damn, that's really gonna keep you from fighting very often!

Again, like I said, it's easy to get around testing. Especially in boxing, where no one really gives a crap. If boxing cared about steroids every active fighter would be randomly tested year round. Instead, they're basically never tested except right before and after a fight. When you know when the cops are coming by it's pretty easy to not get caught holding, know what I mean? The entire testing scheme in boxing is the same as it is in every other sport. It's just there to keep a thin veneer of respectability on the sport. This ain't the 90s. No one really cares if these dudes are doping. Some self-righteous types might pretend to care, but they don't. Not really. And it's bad for everyone when dudes pop hot. Bad for the fans who don't get to watch, bad for the participants who don't get paid, and just plain bad for the folks trying to run a business. I know 50+ year old office workers down at my local gym who can get you any type of roid you want that day. These guys aren't competing for anything, much less millions upon millions of dollars, and they're juiced to the gills.

I actually kind of like the set-up we've got now. Let dudes do whatever they want during their off time. Just make sure they're not pulling an Evan Fields and stabbing a needle into their cheeks right before they do their ring walk.
