    oh ok, probably because most people are haters and just because they can't do something then the other guy has to be on juice. who knows?

    Anyone who has trained hard and looked after their diet, knows you don't have to take roids to get into top shape.
    Lesnar is a freak, and he was born one. Add to that, the advancements in training and nutrition, its no wonder he's such a monster.

    yea your probably right, its best to ignore the arrest for steroids possession, and the long history of steroid use in the wwe, Barry Bonds was probably clean to

    Strength and power training. Boxing is more endurance training.

    :lol:

    He's definitely been on juice for long periods of his life, whih is still cheating even if he isn't right this moment, as some of he efects are long lasting. If he is right now is up for debate, I feel he is, though I wouldn't be surprised if he isn't - he is definitel a monster naturally.

    He's been on steroids for many years. To me, its an addiction, like heroin, crack, alcohol, or any other drug. You cannot simply stop taking steroids without a massive amount of muscle gain being lost. Remember the WWE steroid trial? Hulk Hogan was huge before that trial, and by Wrestlemania IX he looked incredibly thin, by his own admission, he went cold turkey from the steroids.

    Lesnar, has never gotten any smaller.

    It depends on the person. Not everyone who comes of hormones just looses all the gains they made. Guys like Kevin Levrone are extremely rare. Levrone in his contest days was actually heavier during contest than he was in the off. He was a MASSIVE 270lbs and dry as a bone. These days Levrone is less than 200lbs and looks almost rail thin.

    Lesnar was always a massive man. But he has lost ALOT of his conditioning from when he was in OVW and the WWE. He was close to 300lbs and possibly more back then.

    Heres a 24 Lesnar at OVW:

    Here he is now:

    Still a massively built man but lacking alot of the musculature definition and overall size than when he was in the WWE. His pecs have also atrophyed and sag on his lower chest as well as loosing size around his delts and traps.

    If anybody thinks Lesnar has NOT used Roids they need to get their head examined.

    Its literally the most ******ed thing ive ever heard in my life.

    It just makes me laugh that people think Lesnar is clean.

    Yeah your right my bad. I think that ones from just before he went to NJPW. Either way you can see how soft he is in comparison to his early OVW days. Still a massive man though. The UFC had to create special sized gloves because his hands were so big.

    Here's what I am talking about, when I made the Hulk Hogan reference, ok?


    This is Hogan in his prime:

    This content is protected



    And Hogan, I believe, was billed as being 6'8" and around 320 pounds. Mind you, wrestling stats are not exactly the truth. Hogan has been proven to be 6'5"-6'6" and more around 270 pounds. Andre The Giant is a perfect example of exaggeration, being billed as much as 7'5" and 550 pounds. Truth is, Andre The Giant was more around 6'10" and weighing 300-350 pounds in his prime, in his later years, he could have hit 500 pounds but its unlikely.

    This of course, is when Hogan went cold turkey off steroids:

    still big, but significently smaller than he was. A better illustration of this would have been the movie 'Santa With Muscles' and during his days on Thunder In Paradise. He shrank considerably. With Brock Lesnar, however, he hasnt gotten any smaller.

    And how old was the hulk there? There is no doubt Lesnar was juicing in his WWE days but I don't believe he is now, he really doesn't need to besides why would he risk getting caught and ruin his career. He was ripped and shreaded when in the WWE but now he is still big but is doesn't look at all like he did yrs ago.

    Just before Wrestlemania IX, where he beat Yokozuna for the title. It was following the steroid trial. Hogan would later drop the belt to Yokozuna in Dayton, Ohio at the King of The Ring ppv some months later.

    did you even read the artical or just look at the picture?they thought it was roids he had but it was some type of growth hormones not roids so try reading before typing.....and i dont think lesnar is on steriods or been on them i think he just trains his ass off.
