    Well, depends what it is, but assuming it's testosterone or another steroid then I think it'd have to.

    Drostanolone Propionate or Masteron is probably one of the most interesting steroids used by athletes. It is primarily for the treatment of breast cancer patients to inhibit estrogen production. Estrogen is the hormone secreted by female that gives them their distinct sexual characteristics. Maseril, the trademark of Drostanolone Propionate when used in breast cancer therapy is combined with SERM (Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator). There was a drop in estrogen levels among women who had gone through treatment using this hormone. Masteron had become a favorite steroid among athletes and competitive bodybuilders. It is a pretty popular anabolic steroid.

    Masteron is a derivative of dihydrotestosterone or DHT which restrains the conversion to estrogen through aromatization. It could be that its ability to inhibit estrogen from interacting with the aromatase enzyme or it blocks the receptor that binds the estrogen that causes this phenomena. Whatever the reason, because of its anti-estrogenic properties it blocks the conversion of free testosterones to estrogen through aromatization. This makes Masteron a common inclusion in a high anabolic cycle. Since compounds used in cycles to achieve mass gains and strengths have very potent testosterone content, Masteron is used to prevent the estrogenic side effects to take place. The side effects include bloating or water retention and gynecomastia.

    Even though Masteron inhibits testosterone conversion to estrogen it still has anabolic and androgenic properties, simply because it is still a derivative of DHT. While some think that there is low aromatization with Masteron it still has a significant androgenic side-effects that one should expect when using this steroid. It could shut down the production of testosterone, so users should be careful to use this in post cycle therapy because it could actually slowdown recovery.

    I don't understand the people who are crying and moaning, saying i am sick of boxing right now..? the only reason why people are being caught now, is because drug testing in boxing is being taken more seriously. Its still not as professional as cycling or athletics or football! There needs to be out of competition boxing for all the top-20 ranked fighters in each division, it may be too much of a vast operation to drug test every professional boxer out of competition! But top-20 in every division is achievable.

    I think this is a great time for boxing, and i feel that Floyd Mayweather is the reason for all these changes that are slowly happening.

    I predict the next slick blackster... uh slickster... to be caught will be B-Hop. He is old and must have testosterone problems plus Pascal called him out on this point before the 2nd fight - and yet the OG didn't respond to him on that nor take him up on that. i.e. take the tests.

    Maybe B-Hop is too street smart to get caught... but anyone who fights him should insist on tests.
