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.
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.
