    He had a better work rate and discipline so his results showed more, the better results don't come from doing more peds than the other guy they come from working harder than the other guy, Holyfield was still in the upper 1% as in 99% of other guys could do the same peds he did and still not work out as hard or achieve what Holyfield did

    This is blatantly wrong. Have you ever done research into PEDS? All a PED does is accelerate growth but certain PEDs and dosages certainly have an EXTREMELY important effect on the size of the user.

    For starters, watch as many kinescope of Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday night fights from the '50s and '60s that you can get hold of and then determine what fighters strike you fancy and then delve more closely into their careers and track down as many articles and other video clips that you can about them.

    Why was Morrison so second rate compared to Holyfield he probably dosed harder than Holyfield, why does every gym bro that juices not look like Schwarzenegger, Armstrong was definitely not the only cyclist that was using so why did he still dominate

    The cream of the crop is still the cream of the crop regardless of peds, the genetic and psychological component ultimately dictate the results of the peds, someone like Holyfield can better extrapolate the potential of the peds because of the genetics/physiology the molecules are interacting with and the motivation/discipline/work rate he is cognitively putting forth

    Holyfield's bench press for example, very few people could reach the same weight pressed to body weight ratio even with peds because they lack the genetics and discipline to train hard enough to achieve it, an average athlete that uses peds is not magically teleported to the top level
