    You could chew on coca leaves before a fight or between rounds or put the extract in a bottle... pretty sure that's cheating still.

    For an athlete that is known to lead a spartan lifestyle, look after himself and keep close to his fighting weight all year round. I find it hard to believe that he would pump any kind of **** into his system.

    My girlfriend is close friends with a nutritionist antiaging specialist to wealthier clientele, (not going to mention his name) and has many celebrity clients receiving nutritional supplementation and along with a partnering physician hormonal replacement therapy. The lifestyle that accompanies this whole food based nutrition crowd, are things like vitamin b/inositol drips to enhance energy and mental functioning, dhea injections, growth hormone peptides, as well as nootropics. These smart individuals, when they aren't partying either take care of their body's because they are smart and can afford to, or it's beneficial to their career. Point is not all Ped's are toxic, such as increasing testosterone or growth hormone levels through replacement therapy, and it would benefit your speed, reflexes, and explosiveness, not to the level of making you bionic, but you aren't degraded through calendar time, that quickly occurs even if you are eating right in your mid to late 30s from a professional athletic standpoint. I'm not talking about looks, but athletic function at the world class level. It's not like the dude is dumb enough to take black market deca from some underground lab that is polluted with heavy metals that destroy your body. (This is where john doe gets his steroids).

    Yes, Pascal wanted him to undergo additional testing which wasn't stipulated in their contract.

    Disgrace of a thread. Hopkins has lived like a monk and studied the sport like no one else. To question him like this is a joke

    So please show me any hard evidence that Bernard Hopkins has not or ever taken steroids that isn't hearsay or your own opinion.

    I'll wait.
