I do believe that they have probably more than likely both used in the past. Sad as it is but that's how it is these days, way too much of it going around. However don't think either are using currently so just gunna sit back and enjoy the fight! And hope that it finally lives up to the hype!!
The way he flew off the handle when someone asked him about HRT sealed it for me. IMHO he is doing what a lot of 30 something athletes do. He is taking testosterone, no special synthetics that leave detectable metabolites, and probably taking an epitestesterone along with it so his Test/EpiTest doesn't go about 6/1. That is the basis of the cream part of the cream and the clear. It was testosterone mixed with epitestosterone to keep the ratio within acceptable range. As long as he monitors his test and eptitest levels he will never get caught by a drug test.
mayweather is clearly on hgh and anabolic steroids. his steroid use was most noticeable against ortiz where i believe he was juiced to the gills and failed his tests but was lucky enough to conceal them.
Yeah. Very much this. At a minimum. We have athletes in all sports performing in their late 30's these days and it's not unusual. Athletes used to be considered washed up by the mid 30's. Humans did not evolve in that short time, but the drugs and science did. :deal
If you are being sarcastic the answer is yes. There is no way to test for synthetic testosterone. It doesn't leave some marker that allows you to determine natural test vs. synthetic test. Many anabolic and androgenic testosterone like steroids do leave matoblites that are easily detected in urine but testosterone does not. The only test is to check the testosterone to epitestosterone ratio. If this ratio is high than that means the person is taking testosterone and not producing it naturally. USADA and WADA have no way of stopping his. Take the Marrion Jones issue. She never tested positive for steroids(EPO yes) but when balco was raided they found her lab work where they monitored her epitesterone. There is no reason to monitor epitestesterone other than to pass a steroid test. As such the DOJ forced her to fess up or got to jail for lying to them.
Why the attitude??? http://www.nytimes.com/imagepages/2006/08/01/sports/02landis-graphic.html CIR test has been around for years now. Its the frontline test for VADA. That's why Memo is deathly afraid of VADA. Same with Mayweather! Coincidence my fellow floydettes?
When he came back from his two year vacation and fought Mosely he looked significantly more filled out physically. The fact that so many fighters in his stable have been caught cheating is also very embarrassing.
