Yep. In previous fights, Marquez had hurt Pacquiao and even staggered him with the right cross counter, even at 125 lbs, but he wasn't landing it exactly right. After 42 rds, he finally landed it exactly right. And, Boxer4Life, bigger muscles don't make you a better puncher...Quote:

Who knows maybe JMM wasn't even on roids but one cant say that doesn't seem iffy.
Most of the reason you guys are giving me that steroids doesn't matter just proves that they do matter in my eyes. I don't know we must be on two different wave lengths.

Yea camboy but your missing some points your self if Holyfeild was using steroids his whole career which is like a 26 year career and never tested positive for a fight. So if a guy that high profile was never caught in or before or after a fight then it does not really matter because if he can get away with it then everyone damn near can. I think most people today are on roids or other forums of it and have been for a long time. So when the top guys face one another it does not matter who using because good chance both are so who really cares.

I'll tell you why I care is because its cheating. What would the fighter have been without it. Take a smart fighter who is a journey men level fighter and give him roids and he could be a top contender.
Take a contender give him roids and all the sudden hes fighting in championship fights.
If you give an athlete PED's its gonna take him up a couple levels just like if you take those PED's away its gonna bring them down a couple levels.
Take Barry Bonds 70 some home runs in a season and take that down to 60. Take a fighter who uses PED's SD victories and turn those into UD losses.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if Marquez(or most anyone) is/was on roids, but to attribute the Pac KO to that alone is nuts man. PAcquiao got reckless with seconds left in the round having had JMM hurt himself, and JUMPED into the punch. You never ever see that in top fights, his feet were both off the ground when it landed! I'm not sure my mother wouldn't knock some guys out if they tried that. Otherwise it's exactly the same kind of counter Marquez hit him with plenty throughout the first 3 fights. If those two could fight in exactly that same form 50 times, that would have only happened the one time. Nothing iffy about the KO whatsoever.
No other way to say it, this is just absolute nonsense...Quote:

One of the main reasons that fighters use steroids is for fast recovery from injuries in an injury-plagued sport.

Anyone, one of the main reasons that fighters use performance enhancing drugs is for the strength, speed and etc boost. Of course they use it for fast recovery too.
He did beat Frank Bruno twice....and we all know how you feel about himQuote:

In addition his weight gain from the third fight was minimal and in fact only a pound. He actually dropped 2 pounds prior to the 4th fight against Fedchenko. If the guy was juicing surly he would put more weight on then a pound.
