Who Do You Suspect Is Using PED's in Boxing currently & Why?

These threads always show you how emotional people get about fighters. Its obvious that Manny has previously used them previously along with a number of other A grade fighters...

 

dan rafel is clearly on roids

 

Apart from Hatton. What brutal knockouts?

 

Floyd is suspect. During the 24/7 for the Hatton fight they made a big deal about how his body was breaking down. He takes a retirement and comes back over a year later looking in unbelievable shape and pointing the finger at Pac using PEDs

Suspect.

 

Yeah, that's all anyone can "write." And this thread is about people's opinions on potential cheaters a la drugs.

As far as being a "*****" or a fan of one fighter - you're the one who's butthurt over allegations of your Goddess, Pacman.

I enjoy watching Floyd fight as much as I enjoy watching JMM, Ward, Maravilla, Broner, and anyone else who remotely relies on a combination of talent and skills to win. Fighters like Chavez Jr. and/or Pacman are of very little interest as their "achievements" are tainted, IMHO.

The most impressive feat of Chavez is his ability to drop down to an obscenely low weight and rehydrate 20+ pounds in one night. Boxing-wise, he does nothing well besides absorb punishment. Beating up on people two weight classes beneath you is not impressive. Not to mention the continuing controversy over his inability to pass (and in some cases even take) a ****ing drug test.

With Pacman, his "development" raises serious suspicion. I cannot recall a fighter in history that increased speed and power while moving up more than one weight class (considering Manny did it in his late 20's / early 30's). It hasn't happened before because that's not the way normal physiology conducts itself. But, of course, the Pacman is some super-human fighter whose an exception to the laws of biology. It's strange indeed how Manny can climb all these weight classes and never appear bloated or slow or underpowered. But when a fighter like Josesito Lopez tries to do it, he clearly appears to be bloated and out of peak-fighting-shape... because he's fighting 2 times above his normal weight class. That is, his power and speed do not carry-over into the upper weights. This is also the case for great boxers like JMM, Mayweather, Cotto, and most other recent "elite" boxers, I can recall, who successfully climb higher weight classes. These boxers defeat their opponents through tactical means, which makes sense when you think about it. What doesn't make sense is how a man who fights (and loses and gets hurt) at 130 and 135 can move up 12 pounds and overpower / outgun opponents without encountering much damage himself.

Yay :happy for logic and science. Pac's "legacy" is built on a syringe or some sort of supplement.

I'm not saying any of the aforementioned fighters (JMM, Ward, Floyd, Cotto, Broner, Maravilla, etc.) aren't doping or using anything illegal, but Manny's case is just so much more obvious.

 

Brutal TKO's are just about on the same level (and in some ways even worse) as a brutal KO. DLH / Hatton / Clottey / Cotto / Marg / Mosley. These are all bigger men (1-3 weight classes bigger) who were overpowered in ways like they had never been in the past. Considering that most of these fighters fought presumably "stronger" fighters throughout their careers, it just seems strange that someone who walks around at his fighting weight (Manny) can overwhelmingly overpower someone who weighs up to 20 pounds more than him.

 

I think he overdoses on cheetos in his spare time

 

atsch

 

Ward

 

Brutal tko's are in no way close to brutal KO. When you think of brutal KOs you think of fights like Hearns/Duran or more recently Martinez/Williams. You don't think of the fights you have listed(apart from Hatton) where each guy has finished the fight on his feet.
