    Khan + Pac Both Have Better Chins, Stamina & Skills: PEDS OR TEAM Roach & Ariza ?

    To me Saturday night possibly shed light on both fighters improvements being more likely due to their team and hard work rather than PED's.

    After all, the fighters that have tested positive for PED's in the sport have seem to go downhill fast.

    Fitness wise, you can clearly see Ariza's training is very different compared to traditional nutrition and fitness trainers.

    His Olympic style approach, aka high-tech, is very different. I think this is what many old school trainers are not grasping and quickly resorting to the PEDs allegation.

    Look Judah's and Clottey's training camp. You get pads, ropes, calisthenics, and running. Food is just healthy home cook meals and maybe some vitamins.

    Ariza you get a custom workout the changes through out the life of the camp. Diet is custom and changes throughout camp. Calorie, vitamin and supplements are monitored EVERY meal.

    This is the kind of conditioning program you usually associate with an elite Olympic athlete from Europe or US, not with old school training in Detroit or Philly or Mexico City.

    Conditioning coach are playing catch up to Ariza. PEDs accusation is the easy and quick excuse.

    Hydration has an affect on blows to the head. PED's do not.

    Moving up in weight ie not draining yourself usually helps in the chin department. I'd say its helped the both of them.
