This totally ruins it for me! Holyfield was skilled enough and you have to think he used these performance enhancers pretty much since moving to heavyweight! I have no respect for drug cheats.

Well to be honest it should make a big difference but going on what has happened to past boxing drug cheats, then everyone will forget.
Shane Mosley, James Toney and Roy Jones
All did exeptional feats in boxing and all wer caught using steroids
This is part of the reason Shane will lose this weekend
For any clever replys about Mayorga using banned substances it was a diuretic against De La Hoya, not a performace enhancer, he was too lazy to make weight and train![]()
Are you sure Shane was caught using steroids? I know there was some sort of nebulous association with BALCO, but I don't think he ever tested positive. Nor was there evidence he was shipped steroids as was the case with Holyfield. Correct me if I'm wrong though.
Steroids was not the only thing BALCO was into.
The Evan Fields thing was laid to rest by the government.. there wasnt enough conclusive evidence.. innocent till proven guilty.. Evander was never proven guilty or failed a test
Mosley never tested positive, but admitted to using illegal performance enhancers by BALCO, saying he was duped into it and thought they were supplements.
I'm not too sure how I feel about the whole steroid/performance enhancer thing.
I'm against cheating and all that, but another side of me thinks that I'm being too naive and that most world class athletes use roids or some sort of illegal performance enhancer.

I have no problem at all when it's a legal supplement.
When it's a banned substance like stanzol, "the clear", EPO, etc....then I start to have mixed feelings. I don't like that, but maybe the reality is that the majority of world class athletes use some sort of illegal substance.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Roy Jones using a substance that was legal at the time?
