Bucking the Trend: Unconventional HWs Become Ascendent.

Yes, except Usyk is the only for for a good while now.
Admittedly he is less unusual than the others, however think how long he had a guy move up before him-& it may stay at 1-at most-rather than 1-3 per era going forward.

using steroids.
I have posted about this fairly often; nobody can ever give me evidence this is true.
It is like saying all men are over 6'2" just because you can cite numerous examples.
Also just listing the incentives & deterrents for using or not can in no way prove a case about exactly-or even a reasonable range-cheatin' & lying' about PEDs are.

It id extremely naive to believe nobody not caught ever used.
It is similarly irrationally cynical to conclude that everyone uses.
That nobody wants to be clean due to any combinations of principle, fear of punishment or ridicule if caught, for their health, etc.

Now what is the evidence Holyfield was 5'11" as an adult?
But you can easily discover that some people do grow into their mid-20's, although uncommon.
I do not think Holyfield did.

But it seems to think PEDs could have made him grow.
That is a very basic misapprehension about what they can possibly do.
But also I have no indication he used PEDs when that young-he did not get bulky by the ages you cite.
His first HW fight was when he was near 26-& the Cruiserweight limit was 190 lbs. when he fought.

 

Also Toney would need to pick a really weak strap holder to have any realistic shot at a HW title.
Is there evidence the Klits ducked Tua?
I think even Tua would not stand much of a chance against them-unless it was say an old, end of the road Wlad-& you could magically make it a prime, high volume punching Tua.
