    So if a trainer has one fighter test positive the rest are guilty?
    No it's just a feeling I get from him. I'd say he encourages it. I doubt boxers are smart enough to get hold of the correct drugs to take themselves so it's highly unlikely the trainer doesn't know about it. It's just a vibe i get from him when he talks about fighters making weight.

    Boxing camps are so close - they share tips about everything. When a guy gets caught doing it, does it mean his whole camp is? No, but it means that PED use is PROBABLY accepted within the culture of the camp.

    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I often wonder if Garcia's camp are more about cutting weight than fine tuning

    And to think he still topped off at 160+ lbs at the opening bell Fat wanker. He fought like he was stoned on hashish if anything.

    We need to redefine "PED"...cause if you suck, you'll still suck regardless.

    He couldn't make weight naturally... so I guess Ariza was just hired for comedy relief and the weak kick he threw at Roach in the gym. A nice way for Rios to piss away money he didn't even make yet.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.
