    made arrangements to have Porter’s blood collected in Las Vegas, where Porter trains, to determine a nutritional program to put him on. He next had Porter and his father travel to San Carlos, Calif., after he signed to fight Alexander (25-1, 14 KO’s) for a nearly two-week “minicamp” at the Undisputed Boxing Gym just a few blocks from

    offices at the Scientific Nutrition for Advanced Conditioning (SNAC), the sports supplementary company he currently runs.
    Porter did interval training with the Ukraine track guru Remi Korchemny (who was also involved in the BALCO doping scandal) and high-exertion hypoxic training, using a hypoxicator mask, a device that reduces the amount of oxygen to facilitate compensatory measures. Porter received deep tissue massage and went to

    advised him on how to drop weight by eliminating carbohydrates and taking hot baths.
    Porter loved the experience and believes it will give him an edge on Saturday.
    “I felt strong after and before workouts,” Porter said. “If anything, we’re a little bit stronger, a little bit quicker, a little bit faster, a little bit of everything just due to adding what we did.”

    “I want them to understand that there’s a price that they will pay for their association with me,” said Conte, who was scheduled to fly to New York Thursday afternoon. “There will be suspicion. There will be questions. And listen, I’m an anti-doping advocate now "

    "BALCO scientist Memo Heredia helps Juan Manuel Marquez get edge without use of PEDs." Your reaction to this made-up headline should be completely equivalent to the Conte one.

    Good to see Victor finally get some positive press for a change. I guess the regular ballwashings from Maxboxing weren't sufficient.

    Every single athlete associated with Victor Conte is under immediate suspicion in my book.

    Not really because I expect them to use some doping related stuff, but rather something down the line as what the Russians did with administring the gas Xenon, wich seems to have an even stronger effect as EPO. So something that isn't illegal yet, but probably will be in the near future.

    The fact that he was straight up caught before, and is internationally known for for being a designer steroid producer in a way makes him LESS likely to be involved in this stuff, as you know his athletes will have a greater suspicion on them.

    Their testing will be extra rigourous, you even have legal autorities keeping an eye on Conte to make sure he is no longer involved in the manufacture of roids.

    In fact when he worked with Donaire, Donaire was the first boxer I know of to submit to year round random testing

    Baf. All dirty, very few excluded. When you can make hundreds of thousands dollars, or millions with a single fight, why in the entire earth wouldn't you do anything possible to get an edge?

    Unprofessional gym rats take peds just to fell better about their bodies, why wouldn't a sport superstar?

    Xenon is not close to as effective as injecting epo. It just stimulates the production of it.
