    Some of the most knowledgeable poster's on the steroid forums are U.K. residents.

    This one Welsh guy(Bushidobadboy) over at T-Nation is a walking PED encyclopedia.

    This other Brit(Datbtrue) is the Internet's foremost authority on peptides. The U.K. is currently at the forefront of this subject.

    Because their inferiority complex with the Unites States drives them.

    you have got to be kidding with this comment? feel inferior to the Yanks? :lol:

    if there's anyone who shows constant insecurity on here, it's the Yanks. they make excuses fro their guys when they lose (even though picked them to win easily) never give credit for the wins, showing a huge lack of sportmanship.

    they overrate their guys to death only to see them fizzle out like a wet fart.

    i mean, most fighters from over there are supposedly the next ATG. they keep doing **** like this.

    so no, you're pissing in the wrong corner. seriously.

    The UK as a whole is at the forefront of steroid understanding based upon your interaction with a few internet users?

    Couldn't make it up.

    I don't second what you quoted at all, but I will say...

    Americans don't overrate their fighters more than anyone else. I would say it's pretty clear that the American market for boxing shows a willingness to like/watch/root for international boxers more than any other country. Most boxing cards in the US do feature an amazing number of Mexican fighters, for one.

    Think about the hype British fans put on their fighters? An insane amount relative to their talent. And that is to be expected from a country not quite as racially diverse or populated as the United States is.

    As for expecting ATG's from their fighters, I would tell you to not read in to ESB as much as you apparently do. And if I wanted to be nationalistic I would tell you that such an expectation is more warranted than any other country as any respectable opinion would say that about 75% and possibly more of the sports' "All Time Greats" have been American (going by the general feeling that there are somewhere around 50 ATG's ever; this does not go toward "ATG's in each division").

    Don't listen to him. He's a troll a decent % of the time.

    He also thinks that deer antler spray is not a PED and that it does literally nothing to the human body that would impact an athlete in any possible way.
