    In this day and age, fans should be suspicious of anyone that isn't getting tested 24/7/365 or isn't at least willing to be tested 24/7/365. PED use is too pervasive in all professional sports to hold any other perspective.

    You are subjected to potential testing 24/7/365 when you are licensed in Britain. Even between fights.

    It was because Barrera wouldn't stop talking about them fighting. You don't negotiate in the media.

    No. It's because Ward wanted to cycle off the s**t.

    You notice Ward never stopped talking about Golovkin? I suppose he didn't want that fight like he said he did then

    What I'm saying is why do you get to pick and choose who is a cheater or not? You have multiple fighters doing the same thing, but only Floyd, Broner, and Ward is cheaters...

    You're stereotyping a PED user as someone that's chiseled, thick, and muscular.

    Athletes use PED's more to recover from workouts and go through them again sooner than their body would normally let them.
    Its not just about muscle recovery, its about cardio-recovery and stamina.

    Read an article once where a former baseball player who just had a short stint in the Major Leagues talked about what PED's did for him.
    He said, without the PED's he would not have been good enough to break through a major league roster.
    It didn't help him just with strenghth it helped him with speed drills and even hand eye coordination.
    This particular baseball player said that when he was at bat, he was able to pickup the ball and react to it so much faster when he was using performance enhancing drugs.
    He was able to run his bat faster through the strike zone and catch up to fast***** that were closing in on 100 mph, where otherwise he wouldn't have taken his bat off his shoulder.

    If anyone here watched Barry Bonds when he was roided up and on his tear, there wasn't a pitcher in the league that could get a fastball by him, when just before he started taking PED's he was having diffulty catching up to just a low 90 miles per hour fastball.

    My point is that PED's are not just used to bulk up. They're used for speed and conditioning, recuperating and catching another wind faster after exherting tremendous amounts of energy which is something boxers do all the time in the ring when throwing multiple combinations and they can improve your reaction time wish is vital to a prize fighter.

    Fat James Toney would be the last fighter you would supect was doping, yet he was.

    Likelier just a diva move/gamesmanship. Like keeping the opponent that walked first waiting in the ring before you start your entrance.

    What you're doing is watching half of a murder mystery movie and determining the killer without watching the rest.. Yeah he could be a killer. He's acting funny, he had access to the murder weapon, and he was around during the murder.... Guilty! Next movie... :lol:
