    If Salido was a convicted felon in Mexico, how was he able to come to America?

    For me, and I know I will come off as a hater here, it shows what determination but also peds can do for guys with mediocre talent.
    Nobody ever mentions it, but he suddenly transitioned from a journeyman to suddenly beating prospects and even former champions, had a great run against quality opposition, and then got caught on steroids.
    And fought on like nothing ever happened.

    Answered your own question. He did the crime and did his time in Mexico. His debt to his society was paid so there was no restriction on him moving freely about, he wasn't remanded to domestic probation or anything. Now, if he committed GTA in the USA, he wouldn't have been invited back probably ever.

    Never heard about that.

    Edit: just read that it wasn't a negative b-sample but a self initioned follow-up test at another lab, which came back negative.
    Which means close to nothing of course.

    It wasn't the roids man. Salido was always a blue chip type athlete. He just never had good management, trainers, or promotion. He could have been a big time star if the right people had gotten to him early. Instead, he had to come up hard and learn on the job, so he takes a dozen losses and then nobody ever takes him seriously again.

    And mind you this is like the bottom-tier of Salido's form, fifth percentile worst he ever looked in his career.

    He looked like a god in there with Lopez. Physically he had all the tools. If Nacho took him under his wing he might have been pound for pound material.

    Not to mention the oft-overlooked battle with the other JuanMa, the Mexican one - he gave a prime JMM all he could handle over twelve. One could argue that so did Chris John and Freddie Norwood (regardless of for whom you scored any of those contests) but those were also underrated world class guys.
