    I read somewhere that he is part of Pac's team- not sure if its true or not.. Trevor Graham worked with many of the top US athletes who got caught on EPO and other substances 5 or 10 yrs back.

    I hope this isnt true because hes a shady character.

    Need the lowdown.

    Yes. He's been working with pac for a long time, and as we all know, Pac just has no idea how to fire someone.

    Haven't heard Freddie's take on him; however, he doesn't seem to play much of a role in Pac's camp, and just because he's there, doesn't mean that Pac is illegally doping. There are plenty of substances that are perfectly legal in Nevada boxing that wouldn't be legal under the IIOC, and there's never even been a whiff that Pac has failed a post-fight drug test.

    Trevor Graham was at the heart of the Balco scandal in Athletics. It would be very naive of team Pac to be associated with him in any way.

    I think he was banned from athrletics; if his role is to recommend 'legal' supplements then what would Pac be taking? That would be Mr Graham's role I presume.

    I remember reading about this in a post here, when I followed the link it was to another forum where the article was posted but no link to the actual source. I tried searching for the actual article on google and all i got were more forum posts...

    The article contained lines saying that Roach or Ariza (I forget) were saying something like "we wouldn't be here today if weren't for Graham". I didn't give it much thought since I couldn't find the actual article...

    yeah, exactly right- I did the same and wanted to get to the bottom of it. They are saying that Ariza is also linked to Balco
