    Default Brandon Rios fails post fight drugs test!

    I've just seen the news on the ring magazine website he used methylexanamine to make the weight. That's a Shame!

    Goes to show you PED's can't help you win a fight. You still have to fight!

    I have a feeling a lot of Robert Garcias fighters use drugs to try make weight. No evidence of cause just a hunch.

    How fat are these fighters and why do they not fight at their normal weight?
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I know your angle, but you have to take the test to be busted.

    So if a trainer has one fighter test positive the rest are guilty?

    Haha, what a joke. This was his first fight at 147! What did he test positive for when he got that gift over Abril at lightweight? Dude should really just retire as he's never going to see that kind of payday again or beat anyone at welter.

    So all these Pac crybabies can stop bitching over JMM's monster KO of Pac?

    So true ....... All the more reason Pac's win is tainted and nothing more than a win over a mid level drug taking fighter. This is not the stuff that warrants a ramp up to WBC #1 and a mandatory vs Mayweather. Nothing more than free advertising for the WBC.

    If you beat a guy who used PEDS if anything it's a better win, but you're not about to be objective about anything involving Pacquiao, for whatever reason.

    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.

    Too much fat on the body and lack of dedication = cheat.

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