I see. If that is the case, it seems like Vitali would have done well to make the note public. So why hasn´t he done so? I know i would.
Bull**** nuthugger it was nandrolone and if you believe the bros don't or have never taken PEDs you are even more stupid than I first thought.
The only reliable source is the doping test result. That will tell what came up in the tests. Most (all) corticosteroids will show up on a doping screen and they are banned in most sports since forever (AFAIK), although benefits aren't really great as far as is known. Sometimes you may use them if you ask for permission in advance. Corticosteroids can for example be allowed in the form of creams or nasal sprays. For this reason most athletes that get caught claim they took it in one of those two forms. Doped athletes lie a lot. I hope Klitschko doesn't.
It's funny how there are endless posts on ESB accusing vitali of taking steroids, but very few about RJJ and Holyfield. Vitali took cortisone for injury problems NOT anabolic steroids to improve his performance. Taking cortisone as a way of improving your performance would be akin to eating lard to help you lose weight!
