    My man, Joe Calzaghe, always looked how a Super Middle and Light Heavy should look, in my opinion. I don't suspect anything but it amazes me how Anthony Yarde can make weight every time, he weighs the same as me, walking around, and I'm lean as anything yet I haven't got as muscular a torso as him despite years of training!

    Exactly. I’m keeping an open minded but it doesn’t look good. If I was a betting man...

    There’s more reason to call him a cheater at this stage than not...there’s been no denial that he failed a test.

    Him paying to sign up to vada is meaningless. Jimmy Savile used to help sick kids and raise heaps of money for charity...

    100 % true, the Williams fight was probably a step too far.

    Unfortunately, Erislandy Lara who is a phenomenal boxer albeit not an exciting one has lost out on potentially millions of $ during his career losing to cheats.

    Now fighters are faced with the moral dilemma of " if you can't beat them, join them ".

    Even at a lower level, it's the same, David Price and Dave Allen have both lost to known PED user's. I wouldn't blame either one of them for getting " roided out " for future fights.

    Boxing has probably been like this since the '70s but as testing procedures become more sophisticated the gap is definitely closing.

    Going by that theory in point 3 the drug would remain in your body forever ;)

    But yeah, good explanation.

    On a serious note, Aydam needs to be kept on suicide watch because he’s currently floating between stages 1 & 2 of grief, denial and anger. Soon he will be in depression, and I doubt he ever makes it to acceptance!

    Got serious problem that bloke.

    The last paragraph was an excellent analogy.

    You nailed it...Dillian Whyte nor Eddie Hearn has said “he didn’t fail the doping test”. That is significant here. It grates me that he’s being defended on this thread on ‘subjective’ opinion ie ‘he wouldn’t do that’, ‘why would be sign up to vada’ etc. When the objective evidence is there...the results from sample A meant that he had to attend a hearing, for something you cannot find in a supplement or to my knowledge, prescribed medication.

    I would agree that it's daft to defend him by saying he wouldn't do it, but we're yet to hear the full story so we can't judge him at the moment. I really don't want to see a good scrapper banned, particularly as he's always been a bit of an underdog. I want to see him fighting and will hope for the best, though I am a realist.

    I see your point but i suppose that is why there was a trace amount...eventually it will be so small it will be undetectable i suppose....

    And i think dbol breaks down into 2 different metabolites in the body which will be why they found 2 traces of the same drug not to be confused with 2 different drug compounds....

    I’m curious now, what is it that you write about that’s so lucrative? Dillian Whyte erotic fan fiction? :crazylick:

    Fair point, but this hasn’t been denied. I think of this story as a bit like a stroke. It’s very damaging and it’s ripping right through the boxing world, ruining Whyte’s reputation. The longer it’s left the more irreparable damage it’s doing and Eddie Hearn more than anyone knows that. He’s trying his best to pacify people and shift the blame but ultimately there is absolutely nothing he can say to stop this damaging story. If he could he most definitely would...we know what words would stop it...”Dillian Whyte did NOT fail a doping test”. The fact that he (nor Whyte) can’t say them words is evidence in itself. The statement released was dreadful.

    Just to add, that Spencer Feoron needs the book throwing at him as well. He’s sticking up for Whyte for one reason and one reason only. He was cringeworthy the way he piled into Lucas Browne on that podcast. That’s not to say he didn’t deserve it but be consistent-he’s no different to Bellew in that it’s one rule for one and a different one if it’s his mates. He needs pulling up for saying that Rivas failed a doping test with no evidence, too.

    The more I read about PED's use in sport the more I am grateful that Communist Eastern Bloc countries never allowed professional boxing when they had their doping programs.

    Otherwise, we would have seen Heavyweights as tall Valuev with physiques like Schwarzenegger, the speed of Ali, power of Tyson, the durability of Holyfield and stamina of Fraizer.

    As for women's boxing, I can only imagine what the weigh-in would have been like, they would have had bigger bulges than Dave Allen with a sock.

    It's being manhandled. There's a classic sketch of Laurel and Hardy trying to get a piano up a flight of stairs. Reminds me of that.

    I write about Whyte for free, someone has got to back the underdog. Too many haters in this world, I stand up for the good guys.

    He’s not a good guy if he’s been popping steroids.
