    ...I do believe it, in fact I reference breathing and relaxing in my post?

    They are the first thing you learn about when you get serious...I think this is because they are the things that most go against naturalistic combat. However "natural" you are in these areas, it is possible for an old hand to forget them after a time out - especially a few years.

    I agree with this.




    It is also possible to become very tired and hold on to your technique, but it is not the norm. ANd this is why I feel this is the crucial factor - the only way Peter stops Vitali is if he drops a couple of levels in terms of his technique, throwing wilder punches with hands badly positioned. And that only happens if he gasses.

    I'm rooting for Peter, but I won't be surprised at all if Vitali wins.

    Also, Mendoza - I would find it really amusing if Vitali won, and then started stalking Haye. Talk about a cat amongst the pigeons.

    In what I have stated, which was little, absolutely.

    Yes.

    I have, and I don't.

    Are you a Pro Boxer...???...do you or have you practiced sports medicine. You don't have to be to know that steroids are effective in helping heal injury.

    Nobody here denied that steroids are effective in building muscle.

    I don't see why playing "interview with a steroid user," would help prove a point that is already a given.



    Doctors have in the past prescribed steroids to speed up healing of injuries.

    It makes more sense to believe him than to believe you, he has medically documented injuries, and was under a physicians care...if he did not, your accusations might be entertained.

    If you want medical proof that steroids are effective in helping heal injuries, check out...

    James Toney did not use steroids to win fights, he used them to heal his body faster. If James Toney had taken steroids like others, I would hate to see what he would do to everyone. I don't like discussing things that aren't true.

    That will not happen. Haye is a joke. He won't even fight Skelton for 500k. He also wants no part of Barrett. The guy is trying to talk his way to t a title shot without beating any ranked heaives it the ring.
