    I follow cycling as well and the English whinged and moaned about Lance Armstrong for a long time because of how extraordinary his performances in the Tour De France were and then Sir Bradley Wiggins and Chris Froome back to back turn in 2 of the most unbelievably dominant performances at the Tour that I've seen since the hay days of Lance yet not even a peep that they may be cheating from the Brits.

    The whole nation is PED crazy. Go to any steroid board and many of the most knowledgeable poster's are from the U.K.. Their recreational use over there including dosages and stacks put Americans to shame. This culture of usages does not stop at the private citizenry as anyone with a brain has noticed over the past handful of years.

    It is so prevalent that they should consider putting a syringe on the Union Jack. Even with all this rampant PED usage it still makes me wonder why they have such terrible wrestlers and weightlifters?

    Chris Froome and Wiggins are probably the biggest jokes of sportsmen ever to walk the planet. Particularly Froome...terrible riding style yet is astronomically good. At least past dopers who bombed the field had natural talent as well, like Pantani.

    As for Boxing, I think Jason Quigley is a highly overlooked prospect by most. He's gonna be a massive star

    Wiggo and Froomy are both doped to the gills, and your right Froome has terrible riding style and he's not fun to watch.
    I loved Pantani and Jan was my favorite, I liked Kloeden as well.

    Wiggins is less suspect IMO than Froome, but to go from being a time trailer with no climbing ability to be able to hang with Nibali does raise ??? in my book. And I doubt Nibali is clean either.

    I like Quigley a lot but at this point his wins haven't been notable enough to make the poll. But he's looked damn good against McCoy and Najera, and right off the bat he's been on ShoBox and FS1 so hopefully this year he will most likely get a lot more exposure.

    Contador is my favourite cyclist of all time. I love his riding style and he is the gutsiest cyclist I have ever seen. Yeah sure he's more than likely doped too (banned once for the smallest amount of a substance possible, something I thought was bs on behalf of the authorities) but he is so elegant and brings such excitement to the sport. His battles with Andy Schleck were awesome. His Vuelta win after that massive crash at the Tour was astonishing. If he does the Giro/Tour double this year he has to be up there with Hinault and Merckx as the greatest ever.

    From the new crop, Quintana is an obvious favourite of mine as is Fabio Aru.

    I love Alberto I pegged him for success after he won Paris Nice a few years back, but I had no idea he go and win the Tour the same year. Aru looks promising and Italy needs a new and more charismatic star to root for than Nibali who lacks personality but is talented nonetheless.

    Sorry maybe I'll do a Matsumoto thread to make up for it later:good As far as Tanaka goes its damn hard to get anyone to care for Flyweights, so Minimumweight is almost an impossibility.
