    Except that there was a cellphone number for Evan Fields on that list of customers and Holyfield answered it. No East German athlete ever tested positive for steroids, it means nothing. Steroids are used during training, not right before competition. Besides, Holyfield has shown an increase in his head size over the years, a clear sign of HGH use.

    Come on that is some damming evidence and he looked juiced up in the Tyson fight IMO. The firm in Alabama had records showing that PEDs were delivered to Holyfields address to a man with the same Date of Birth but under the name Evan Fields.

    And?Could have been a cover for another guy as far as we know.

    Besides this was in 2007 long after his best days were over.

    There is no proof he ever used steroids.Going by that everybody could be using steroids or whatever.

    Mid level. I think his use of PEDs should also be considered.

    He looked juiced?Why,cuz he is built like a tank?Did Tyson not look juiced?Does Mayweather not look juiced?Or Judah or most of them?
    He always looked like that since he proolly has incredible genetics and has been training all his life.
    The PEDs weren't delivered to his house.

    Your whats wrong with boxing. So called fans like you who are indifferent about PEDs and wont admit the truth even when the evidence is in your face.

    You have to understand that the boxing ring is on of the very few places you can legally kill a man. If a fighter is hitting harder because of PEDs the risk for fatal injury is higher. This is why I dont consider any Boxer who took PEDs as HOFer or ATG.

    The guy is a cheat, heatbutting *******. Tyson got all the flac for biting his ear but Evander knew Tyson was sensitive and continual fouling would break him.

    Holyfield was again linked to HGH in September 2007, when his name came up following a raid of Signature Pharmacy in Orlando, FL. [18] As of September 2007, Signature Pharmacy is under investigation for illegally supplying several professional athletes with steroids and HGH.[19]
    This was copied from Wikipedia. It was one of 4 occations that he has been linked.
