    Without turning all TM on this.. would you rather fight someone coked off their nut or fight someone with a baseball bat?

    It's a no brainer.

    Both are just as bad in different ways....Steroids make you stronger, faster etc....

    Wraps can make you a fist of Iron.....

    Maybe you should try fihgting somebody coked off their nut. I am doing security as a part time job, and we work the police and a guy who used to be on the riot unit was telling me one time this guy who was 160 pounds, fought evenly with 4 cops all over 200 pounds all using their knightsticks, pepper spray, tazors, and like I said he was holding his own. There isn't a single person who would stand a chance with a baseball bat against that.

    Now steroids aren't the same being coked up, and I am aware of that.

    Also how can people deny the difference steroids make in performance? Like at Michael Johnson, Barry Bonds, Sammy Sosa, Mark Macguire. Especially the guys in baseball where hand-eye coordination, power, and speed play a factor. Hitting a baseball is suppose to be the toughest thing to do in sports, and look how dramatically. If it can change good hitters into the best hitters in the history of the game, and doubling their stats, it must do amazing things for boxers. Obviously, it would never make Arturo Gatti into Floyd Mayweather, but give it to a good fighter, and it would give them that edge that makes all the difference.

    Well i say loaded wraps because steriods can have different effects on people as for the people saying Tony had bricks in his hands well if he did Dont you think Williams and Clotty would of been busted up i mean starting to question if were going to say he was using warps then why were there faces not torn buy it and also i wish the just tell us what is was because if its not plaster and somthing elese like to have some proof on how much more damage it does then say the human hand like to know.

    I am not leaning into any side but steroids is supposed to be performance enhancement while loaded wraps' purpose is for damage enhancement. As a fight fan I would rather see fighters giving their best performance than inflicting possible fatal damage to somebody. It is indeed unfair to have any significant unjust advantage whatever way it is. But take it this way, what if both fighters have the right to take these performance enhancements? who will benefit? US. FANS. we won't see fighters gassed, unconditioned for a full fight. Unlike loaded wraps, no matter how well-conditioned a fighter is if he's getting hit by foreign objects that conditioning is definetely neutralized. and it is again, us fans who suffer. So, to me as long as these 'steroids' purposes is to 'sustain better cardio strength and not punching power', I'm cool with it.
