    Is Haney on something now as well? He appears to be considerably more ripped with increased punching power.

    His power is the same, hes always been an underrated puncher and his record is very deceiving. He would have more KO´s on his record if not for his safety first approach.
    Prograis has an iron chin and Haney almost cracked it.

    Oh, and of course, Haney is a massive guy. I doubt there are many fights where he did not outweigh his opponents by a significant margin.

    There it is. Not only wouldn't the absolutely minuscule trace amounts of ostrich had any performance enhancing effects whatsoever but he didn't even knowingly consume it

    And even if it did which it didn't he trained at the bar, was experiencing a mental episode and was clearly not in top shape

    PEDs do not explain getting timed with the same punch that put you on your ass repeatedly, as a world champion caliber fighter….(and one who was widely considered top 10 p4p at the time)

    Haney (and his Dad) are sad, and id pick Ryan to beat him again in a rematch even after the loss to Rollie….

    Now ask if he paid the polygraph examiner to lie on his behalf.

    Since I've seen that polygraph guy used on multiple well known news shows, I highly doubt he'd risk his livelihood and reputation to protect Ryan Garcia.

    I always believed Ryan when he said he never took ostrich. Just judging by his body language and his conviction I never got the sense he wasn't telling the truth. It would be super dumb to take it when he tested positive for it too.

    Yeah, he's guilty of coming in overweight but I couldn't give a crap about that given how he was facing a gigantic weight bully who weighed 5lbs less for his 140 debut than career 160 GGG's very consistent fight night weight at 160 and has been trying to unsettle his opponents at every weight he's fought at by telling them they're ''too small'' and if he has ever beaten anyone close to his size it's only once. And I've heard from a reputable source boxing insider he's actually missed weight himself and it was covered up

    Yeah, and we know that millionaire athletes would never commit crimes like getting into illegal sports gambling or drug dealing because they are millionaires and they would never risk their careers to do crime. Come on CTS, what happened to you? You used to be beautiful. LOL
