Why the "?" ? :: I always wondered how much of Roy´s and Shane´s sensational athleticism was synthetic. Did we see the real Sugar Shane against Estrada or Cruz?
Because i'm at work and my boss was walking up. I got nervous.:: Someone replace it with an exclamation mark please.
this is nothing new. this was brought up soon after mosley protested on behalf of BALCO. HBO even showed pics comparing how he looked vs. oscar against who he looked vs winky.
Motherf*cker had to cheat to beat DLH in the rematch. Not surprising. Everybody on the net saw the pics of how huge and ripped Mosley was at the weigh in and knew he was on something. He's never been that ripped for any fight, prior or after. I hope he gets busted.
I wonder when the independent boxing websites and Ring Magazine will pick up the issue of doping in boxing. :: :: Surely Oscar will now investigate to clear up boxing. :clap: :clap:
Just curious why SI (who rarely covers boxing these days) decided to run this story NOW, when there are actually fights happening this weekend. The only relevance I see in recalling a 4-year old story came from sources quoted last November!
Main stream sites aren't interested in covering the sport unless they get the opportunity to use the tired "Another bleck eye for boxing" line. :doh: You know that Jake.
yeah but why wait until now? Why not release it, say before Shane's last fight, which would be more relevant and "only" two or three months after the meeting. Or... if they hate boxing that much, before Mayweather-DLH?
I have no sympathy for Mosley, but I wish some journalists would come after the NFL and MLB in the same way. Oh sorry, that will only get you in jail, while Bonds keeps swinging for the fences.
True, but doing it this way has become very popular. You can also see that more and more boxers are not training in altitude.
boxing is back !!! these (along with tranny photos) are exactly what the sport needs to garner more attention and become main stream once again. everyone knows Mosley was juiced for that fight. so this isn't news for us. but in SI it's fairly breaking, and probably captivating to a broader audience than the usual plots unfolding in boxing.
exactly. and i have the same attitude with respect to boxing as i do to other sports - so what? ok. i admire guys that can be at the top level without it. but i don't believe for one second that there's "would-be" elites floundering in obscurity because some average fighter uses drugs to enhance his performance. it'd be nice if there were no such drugs. but i don't look at it as some sort of moral or even ethical issue really.
Accusing people is wrong but Id say 90 % of fighters in the top-10 of their divisions take some illegal stuff
I don't understand what the point of the article is. ITs just a rehash of what happened four years ago. There's no new evidence, or witnesses being brought in to corraborate the accusations originally put forth. All this was covered several years ago.
I guess they got bored of covering Vick. So they need something bad to write about so they choose boxing.
