    Is this simple yes/no speculation, and can anyone play? I'll go with 'no' or maybe 'yes'.

    In hands of stone by christian guidace there was a passage where he took a shot or something that they give to race horses for energy and it wound up messing him up for a fight that was a poor showing, Ill have to look it up again in the book

    Duran looked like he had a lot of muscle in the Montreal fight:deal, and when he faced Barkley, that being said I doubt he was a roider, but who knows, too many years have gone by to prove it 1 way or another...:conf

    There is no reason to suspect he took steroids. While anyone could have, this is not even the accusation, let alone evidence, & he was generally not very bulky. Yes you can use & be soft, but someone like Toney had a lot of weight/lean muscle mass for his height & bone structure, even if you removed the fat, certainly for someone who did not appear a natural HW.

    You could play this game with every boxer of the last 45 years or so (and that's if we're being generous and assuming that boxing was late to the party as far as PED's and sports goes).

    People really didn't notice or make a fuss until heavyweights started getting ridiculously cartoonish in the 90's, but they were already in the sport before 1970.

    PEDs? Duran? You know I never thought about it? Now that you say it, it does sound possible!
