Steroids in the 90's

Thing is, not testing positive isn't even a guarantee that Olympic athletes are clean where there is year round random testing. In boxing when you're taking one test, and in the nineties probably not even that, not failing a test means nothing.

 

oh look, the delusional steroid deniers are out in force again, getting all angry because their idol is a fraudulent cheat




anyone who thinks holyfield fought clean is living in an absolute ****ing dream world, theres even posters on this forum who still believe that james toney is not a disgracefull, cowardly, cheating, steroid riddled cretin and was actually a clean fighter atsch



look at the jones deniers

failed a test for anabolic steroids

was 6 times over the upper level testosterone levels

was asked to provide a 2nd urine sample to determine the steroid he was on and never gave one and still the roy jones fanboys out there want to believe he was a clean athete :rofl

jones didn't take the 2nd test and then it took roy's attourney 3 weeks to respond to the failed 1st test and claim that the failed test was caused by nasal spray and ripped fuel . . . . . . and whats more, these gullable roy jones fanboys take it as gospel truth

and then theres the jones fanboys talking about andro as if it is a fact that it is what roy jones took just because roys camp spread the word to a few ****ing journalists :nut

the only man in the know was jacob hall, the man in charge of the testing at indiana state commission and when asked as to whether jones took andro, he stated there was no proof of that :deal

jacob hall wanted to prosecute jones but there was no law in place for hall to do that in indiana at that time.

roy jones and his legal team got him out of a hole by not taking a 2nd test, took 3 weeks to plan the best strategy (story) forward and brilliantly managed a damage limitation exercise to protect roys legacy, all backed up by smoothing andro bull**** onto journalists so the majority of fans out there began to take it as fact :hi:

the fact that roy jones tested positive for being 6 times over the limit the 1st time he was ever steroid tested as a pro says everything you need to know.

 

I've always had my suspicions about Bruno especially during the latter part of his career. The thing is his massive build hindered his career rather than elevated it.

 

Well said that man.

 

The absolute truth. The idiocy of some people is astounding. As soon as Jones came off the gear, his chin was checked time and time again

 

So let's assume then that they are all drugged up to their eyeballs, that sounds reasonable.

 

Nah, let's just delude ourselves and pretend that boxing isn't affected by a problem that plagues pretty much every other sport.
