    And this is exactly why for years no one has been caught in football, top-level cricket, rugby, because money, sponsorship interest, stakeholders and corruption makes the world go round

    All the VADA test results prove is that their method of testing is severely flawed and that the test is clearly beatable.

    Additionally, when you consider the added controversy surrounding the gloves, Dillian was caught on camera saying Dan Azeez had taken his gloves which we now know never happened, his credibility is diminished even further.

    I watched an interview with Paulie Malignaggi and he suggests 95-98 % of the top guys are now on PED'S. ( From 6 minutes onwards.)

    I find it very difficult to disagree with the points he makes

    I'll always wonder if my old school favorites like Ali, Foreman, and Holmes were on steroids as well.

    If you check out Larry's physique in Shavers I and then II there's a definite difference. Or maybe I'm cuckoo.

    I'm nowhere near as down on PED as I used to be.

    Yeah I’ve made this point previously. Imagine if you had a son who was a pro HW boxer about to go into the ring with someone like AJ. You think I’m going to let him go in there handicapped? I’m going to level the playing field and improve his chances of avoiding getting hurt by a clearly drug enhanced fighter. Not doing so would be akin to sending someone into a gun fight armed with a knife.

    Kind of like how Holmes was against Tyson. One was obviously on PEDs, the other most obviously wasn't.

    Not to take what little there was away from such a...ahem, solid victory.

    So when he was likely using PEDs with complete impunity as he was yet to be caught. That explains it then.

    They can spin it anyway they want but how did it get in his system? Even trace amounts don't just appear from nowhere.

    At this rate, UKAD and VADA may as well supply the gear.

    Just declare the boxer with what they have been shoving in themselves

    Test was only banned from sporting use in the Olympics in 1976.

    Professional boxing was probably well behind that. But I’ve always assumed it wasn’t readily available but there was literally nothing stopping them either.
