    I've heard people at the gym where I work out talking about Holy. The big dudes there all laugh that there are people who still think he's not juiced.

    You'd have to be a moron to think otherwise. I still like watching him though

    Exactly. Those who think he's never juiced have likely never touched a weight in their lives. I was an avid lifter for over 10 years and I can usually tell when someone's juiced. Especially if they gain significant muscle weight past their mid 20's.

    just cos he's lost weight doesn't mean he's in good shape. It wasn't like he was ever really flabby or out of shape, well, for a 44 year old. If anything, at his age, over-training might do his overall fitness no good at all.

    Fact is you cant turn back time. He might look cosmetically good, be lighter etc, but he's been shot for about 3 or 4 years now. Even if he beats Ibragimov, which isn't that likely, he's only gonna end up getting seriously seriously hurt as soon as he fights someone like Wlad Klitschko.

    Klitschko could kill Holyfield if they fought, if they let that fight happen I will be done with boxing, letting a man's courage cost him his health is very irresponsible.

    Ditto what Words said about overtraining - that's always been Holyfield's vulnerability. He seems to worry so much about being in shape, he leaves too much in the gym sometimes. But he's acknowledged this year that he needs to lighten up and give himself more time to recover.

    As for the 'roids, some folks here need to lighten up too. I love Holyfield. Do we hafta use a smiley every time we crack wise for the benefit of the clueless and humorless?

    Okey-dokey... :stir

    Let's put the steriod bull**** to rest with reality not bull****.

    #1 Holyfield has weighed from 208 to 218 from 1990 to present day and he's been ripped in every fight, that's 10 pounds in 17 years. With all the weight lifting and working out he does he would of gained a hell of a lot more weight than just 10 pounds since 1990, if he was on roids or hgh.

    #2 Since he's weighed and looked the same since 1990, than he must of been on roids or something since 1990, so how many drug test has he failed since 1990 or ever ??? Oh "0" that's right SFB.

    #3 These douche bags bring up the S.I. article, well what's up with that, haven't heard a single word in the media since, and believe me if law inforcement had any evidence against Holyfield they would go after he ass because he's a celebrity.

    So, Holyfield fans don't listen to any of these pencil dicks ***s talking **** about Holyfield.

    I guess by that, you mean that there will be no referee in there to stop it if Holyfield starts taking too many shots? :blood

    Will this be the first every title fight without a referee?

    :lol:

    It's easy to defeat the tests. It doesn't mean ****.

    The SI article offers very compelling evidence. You're grasping for straws if you think it doesn't mean anything. Again, people who work out religiously agree almost without exception that he's a juicer. Just like Bonds. It's silly to believe otherwise.
