    Why are you so paranoid lol wtf, he's never had a questionable test. Do YOU think he's on PEDs ?

    A) As much as I love Usyk, I would never say never, just like I don't know if George Foreman and Bob Dylan raped women. We don't really know out heroes like we think we do.

    B) My feeling is probably that he is not for reasons mentioned...he doesn't have a PEDs body...we haven't seen his head change shape...

    C) If he does, hey, let's deal with things consistently. Jones popped for PEDs, and Holy was caught having HGH sent to his house under the name "Evan Fields." Now go and find all the threads in which these men are praised nightly.

    We really have to make a decision on how much it matters. If it negates a legacy entirely, it negates a legacy entirely. If it knocks you down a couple of notches (this is what I think), then it knocks you down a couple of notches. Whatever is right.

    You aren't lying. As always, the cheats remain steps ahead of the testers and as I've said, VADA is not as comprehensive as many believe. Even they warn people to take notice of small details about when testing starts, what types of tests are administered, etc. I really like Usyk, but I'm not star struck enough to believe that he walks the earth as a saint, void of vice. It's not as if all of Klimas' men have been squeaky clean, either.

    Usyk popping hot wouldn't shock me. I think they are virtually all on it, anyway.

    Yup. It was covered up. From AI...

    Former light heavyweight boxing champion Roy Jones Jr. tested positive for the testosterone precursor androstenedione in 2000 following his title fight against Richard Hall
    . Androstenedione is a banned substance.

    All that is true but the HW division being in shamble helps. Fury wins were great...all else...good, but not moving the scale a whole lot. But the Fury wins were great.

    As a fan, it would be a major betrayal if he was on the stuff. Simply because Usyk is so unique and so humble. Foreman and Holyfield ( who was my fav fighter ) appeared deeply religious like Usyk but they were way more flawed than Usyk. How many illegitimate children are these dudes known to have popped out? Cheating on their wives etc. Usyk, not doing that ****. The dude is real. If he was on roids and got caught, it wouldn't effect me greatly even as a big fan but it would shatter millions of fans around the world.
