    I'm in the assumption a large portion of the top fighters are on something but your test levels don't start to drop til your late 40's. Povektin isn't that ripped and never has been.

    Exactly. The idea that taking some chemical can turn people into super-human monsters is a bunch of nonsense. More of a way to attack fighters people don't like than anything else.

    I play along with the fanatics when this happens. The minute they start accusing fighters of ducking or say some stupid ****...I go into the "I'm your huckleberry" mentality. Then they really hate me, lmao. Sometimes it's addictive.

    Do you people understand that Clembuterol is actually a horse bronchodilator that dilates the airways? Do you think that might help an athlete?

    Yes obviously they help that's why scientists have classified them as PED's

    Yeah, these are banned PEDS. Everything is not a conspiracy, folks sounding like anti-vaxxers.

    You are asking if performance enhancing drugs enhance a persons performance?

    Is that a rhetorical question?

    Just google it.. There's a lot of info about it online. Lots of athletes not just boxers have used it or gotten caught.. Most claim ''Not Intentional of course''..

    You don’t think having a greater aerobic capacity would make you a better boxer?

    :lol: I asked the same exact question.

    I don't honestly believe so. It turns out WADA doesn't bother to prove an enhancer is actually effective. All they do is monitor what athlete's believe will enhance their performance and ban whatever gets popular. At least that's all I found. I think it's curious the agencies themselves are the ones pointing out the lack of proof given it weakens their stance on the bans.

    Until someone gives me more than popular belief I reckon it's just a way for them to make money. I mean ****, look at how often diet trends are proven to be utter nonsense. When I was little it was the all red meat diet....they sold that....as healthy. What people believe will help them doesn't honestly mean much of **** to me. They used to laugh at Cribb for eating salads and drinking water while they chugged their ale two pounds of steak before his fights and still even after defeat would claim their diet was scientifically proven though it wasn't. It was just some **** athletes, their trainers, and their doctors used to buy into.

    It seems very similar and if I could make money off folks believing a this magic pill makes them pop-eye I would too. On both ends, as the manufacturer, and as the drug authority for athletic competition. Once you throw the burden of proof out cha-ching no?
