Yeah, I'm sure the 6'6", 240 lb, <10% bodyfat, elite performance athlete is natty. A bodybuilder can pass all the tests, but one glance at their physique tells you all you need to know.
Of course some can. You don’t think having a nearly unlimited amount of stamina would help a boxer press the pace while constantly moving?? Usyk may very well be clean, but I think his point is that PEDS absolutely help. A hypothetical…take two identical Usyks. Have one train proper but have him be perfectly clean. Have the other one train the same way and give him biologically identical testosterone to keep him on the high end of normal/testing limit at all times. Sprinkle on some EPO for the ol’ gas tank. I guarantee that Usyk #1 is getting ****ed right up.
It would be better without VADA, WADA and all that "fair testing".They care only for power and money, not for the sport or the people.
Where is the evidence for that? It is extremely naive & irrational to believe everybody who ever cheats & lies is caught in any & every test. Likewise it is extremely cynical, unfair & illogical to assume that the body is totally corrupt & everyone cheats-without presenting good evidence for such a huge accusation.
Why ignore & demean what I said by using sarcasm? I had to google who Hearn was, figured he was a promoter. Unlike what he is likely to say, I was not trumpeting how clean athletes are or how great testing is. So if you respond, please this time be direct & answer rationally. I am not remotely telling you everyone or almost everyone is clean. Again: it is unjust & unreasonable to assume everyone is dirty, lying, cheating...From athletes to everyone in an sports body absent any evidence of such a sweeping indictment. We distinguish science from B.S. by considering truisms such as "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence". You saying everyone is completely corrupt is extraordinary. Since you do not have any evidence, I hope you will reconsider your faith-based belief-in not believing anyone is decent.
My apologies i meant to quote someone else but I had two pages open. I will respond later when I get to work. Pleaae don't be offended, it was not my intention to mock you.
No problemo man, these confusions happen. It is 3:33 in the AM here, you must be in a very different place than E.S.T./NYC! See ya tomorrow.
