Ortiz fighting Wilder this weekend has two drugs bans to his name, Fury on the way back hailed as some kind of returning hero yet he's recently excepted a back dated two year steroid ban

It's everywhere and it's a farce.

Zero tolerance only way to stop it.

Only half listening to the news but the accusations have been made by a Commitee of MP's haven't they?

Don't know but I gather that no rules have been broken. It's just about ethics so why is there any fuss?

No wonder considering he's likely to be just 'Bradley Wiggins' before too long.

Why do we always build up our heroes then try to knock them down. I don't understand it.

Because IF they have cheated it needs outing . I love tour de France and the C4 guy ( can't for life think of his name ) was on the news last night and he said ( no idea if he has proof ) that the amounts found would be too much to be issued just for normal medical situations.
I love watching wiggo and think froome is doped . Do I think wiggo has cheated ? Heart says no but head is scrambled with smoke and fire.

Didn't realise cannelo had failed one but looks like the GGG fight still happens.

Anthony Joshua used to deal drugs, but is some sort of national hero. Can't wait til someone ends his sainthood. Tyson was a nasty prick, but at least he never pretend to be anything else. Good boxer, but as a person - complete wanker. Hope Wilder or Fury sparks him.

A guy who had a tough start in life, makes his mistakes but turns it around and decides he wants to be a good role model not a gangster pin up can't be a bad thing in the eyes of joe public really.

As for Fury he comes from a family of thugs and is trained by his uncle a convicted real drug dealer, that much of a drug dealer he had to pay the Police back 1 million quid of his stashed away abroad ill gotten gains or they'd slam him up again. This guy is held up by many as a role model boxing trainer, come on !!!!

Not having a go at you Reidy I just detest the whole Fury mob.

Then the fighter himself already served a ban for taking performance enhancing drugs, again come on. The sooner someone sparks that complete joker out the better he's the biggest farce I've known in 30 odd years of watching HW boxing.

30 years? That's a coincidence! It's about the same time that I gave up watching boxing tomphil.

You gave up when Mike Tyson was in his prime ?? You missed the most exciting heavyweight ever then :p

No maybe exaggerating with 30 years. I watched Iron Mike and when he faded that was it for me. Seems size is the only thing that matters these days.
With respects to Marciano and Lewis etc who were before my time I'd seen the best heavyweight boxer ever. Ali's balance and boxing skills will never be beaten. Also I'd seen the scariest and most menacing (forget Liston Tyson's aura was terrifying). I'd also seen what imo must have been the best middleweight division of all time too.
After that lot everything else doesn't really compare does it?
