    Wise up mate, everyone is on drugs at the elite level. Taking them levels the playing field - that's the way Briggs and all of these other "cheats" view it as. Would you take a pistol to a gun fight when everyone else has machine guns? Win at all costs. This is how elite athletes think.

    Hopefully Ustinov will replace him on short notice and let's get this over with.

    Why would he even be enrolled in VADA.

    And at 45 y/o, after multiple concussions in the Vitali fight alone, his T levels were likely in the .6:1 neighborhood rather than the typical 20-25% drop in the average man from 1.1:1 down to .867:1 level.

    Thats what the hell D Hale Jr, Floyds adopted Daddy has made his millions from. Testosterone replacement therapy, and with Briggs history, he could have easily done like BHOP, gotten the exemption and had NDAs in place.

    Hell, even Daniel Jacobs had exemptions, and he's f/n prime.

    No reason this fight should be called off, cause I can almost guarantee that Fres is on the sauce too, simply because at 41, his levels have to be way down there too.

    However, the WBA is pretty dang pathetic having a f/n 45 yo and a 41 yo, neither having a W over even a fringe contender in the past 2 yrs, fighting for their title.

    This mighta made a decent eliminator for the right to fight 55 y/o Ortiz for the regular title.

    Oquendo has waited long enough he should be awarded the belt and forced to face Ustinov in first defense.

    I laughed when I read the title, I knew he was juicing but I didn't think he would get caught. I remember when he said Brown tried to commit suicide by taking drugs because he was scared to fight him, was he doing the same? :p

    Except NSAC finally in 2014, banned TUE's for TRT. That's why Fluid had to get a TUE for IV use instead of the usual TRT. ;)

    Hardly surprising. Very few guys that age can be ripped.

    Awarded the belt for fighting and or beating who exactly.

    At minimum, the WBA should force him to fight the interim Champ, Ortiz or the next top 10 who'll step in.

    Even with all that brain damage and steroids he knew better to F with Tyson Fury

    Tyson Fury aint Wlad. Briggs knew Fury would drop him on the spot
