    What difference does it make? You can say the same thing about any fighter. Physique is usually the last indication of steroid abuse. Look at the number of fat puddings that have been caught. Probably because they know they can't do it naturally so turn to drugs.

    Did Armstrong ever fail a drug test? Was he not competing in one of the most drug tested sports in the world?

    I'm not formally accusing anyone in a court of law, nor do I expect any action to be taken based on my own opinions, so statements like "innocent until proven guilty" ring hollow for me.

    Regarding your, "I know what can be achieved naturally" line of reasoning, well good for you that you've made the decision to remain natural in the pursuit of your goals, but unless you actually have a physique like Joshua's (FFMI 26, bodyfat around or a little under 10%) then you don't have a leg to stand on.

    There is evidence proving that Armstrong was a cheat. There isn't any evidence or accounts that AJ is.

    Did Armstrong ever fail a drug test? Wasn't he vigorously tested during his time in his chosen sport? Those were the only criteria you raised assessing whether or not Joshua was clean.

    He did actually... at the 1999 Tour De France, for corticosteroids which was dealt with by a back-dated prescription for saddle sores, and later, a $100,000 'donation' to the testing lab to upgrade their equipment. All this was then brushed under the carpet until years later. Money talks. In cycling and boxing too, I suspect...

    No, and that's my point when I read people say someone never failed a test so they must be clean. You can't reach that conclusion because cover-ups have happened and will continue to do so. I have no idea if AJ is or has juiced but considering all the evidence, you can't declare him clean either. I'm damn sure, though - whatever the reality is - he'll never get busted...

    It's not a coincidence that the majority of people who call people ped cheats, without proof, are the biggest sad sacks in life.

    Jealousy is an ugly emotion.

    I've never seen a bodybuilder with such a chiseled physique like Joshua has. Like a black Dorian Yates. This guys veins popping out more than Bane in that Batman film. Maybe Anthony will challenge Shawn Rhoden at the Olympia this year. Because this stiff weightlifter is obviously too busy in giving Deontay his well deserved title shot! Lol.
