    Non American White fighters around 85% of the top guys are still “clean”
    Around 30% of non white and around 5% of Americans

    What's the big deal? Very few fights have full VADA testing. It's more newsworthy when it is used, than when it isn't.

    40 year old bloke fighting with the same energy as he had 20 odd years ago refuses to do vada testing....hmmm. Not suspicious in the slightest.

    Ohhh the fan boys hit hard... You simply cannot have a rational conversation on that board about manny, Floyd, ggg or canelo, impossible!

    I don't see it as a problem.
    This is just the same as things have been for decades.

    Now u know my stance on peds but both agreeing not to sign up to vada then they have both agreed so hard to argue... No testing took place at all until later in the camps according to Thurman. Like you said not suspicious in the slightest.

    Actually had a guy saying that fighters don't really deteriorate that much between the ages of 30-40!!

    Haha. I love my world level boxing but I try to shoehorn discussions on here about them instead cos you can have a rational debate here.

    Pac is almost glowing with peds but it’s up to the governing bodies to deal with it/ignore it. I’m not gonna lose any sleep over it. Thurman had a free reign to also juice up to be fair.

    Yeah but they will still watch the next fights and support the fighters who are on PEDs or suspected of it. People buy PPVs of cheats all the time and will still moan online about cheaters. Most of the top 20 heavyweights have failed tests. Fury failed and he was a hero on his comeback. Canelo is the most popular fighter in the world. Most don't really care they just love something to moan about.
