No more PAWGs, PLEASE??!!!??
I wonder if all these fighters on Matchroom cards are getting caught because they ARE getting tested.
Or is there something else at play.

You might be onto something. So many techniques in flaunting the game.
Teo just retired. Retired fighters have an out. Do whatever they want, until they go back in camp. This is just one potential tactic. There's a dozen others.

I don't see the correlation, I mean maybe it's just these fighters that appeared on their cards recently that just happened to use more PEDs or they are really just more rigorously tested.
But an intentional foul play? Why? Baumgardner, Cusumano, Whyte, Benn, Helenius
There is no pattern that would suggest they fukk those who went against them or something. Some of these were really painful to them like Whyte, Benn or even Baumgardner, and others like Cusumano and Helenius... MR had just no reason at all to fukk them. So I don't think it's foul play.
I also don't think they intentionally hand out PEDs to their fighters, if anyone is doing that those are trainers, SnC coaches and whoever is involved in the preparation of a fighter.

I think that more testing means that more people are getting found out. OR there is a lot of contamination at the labs being used.
I don't think anything sinister is happening. According to Liam Smith's trainer, nobody came to test for the Eubank fight. I think Dave Allen confirmed this as well.
Everybody on a Matchroom card is tested by Drug Free sport

Watched Mayweather/Maidana 1 again..hr put up a real good fight..especially the first half..bullying...overhead looping rights kind of got through several times but he couldn't follow up afterwards. Center of the ring? Floyd just kept picking him apart easily..he was 37 in this fight. Ultra discipline.
He said he would come back if Canelo had the courage to call him out..Canelo grumbled a few things after Ward's criticisms but didn't directly call him out. Then he ran into Bivol and got humilated.
its a shame though...because kownacki got the shyt beaten out of him by that journeyman...i was talking to my boy who is cusumano matchmaker...he didnt even know that he popped dirty when i told him yesterday...needless to say CES is not happy over this...between the jamaine ortiz thing and this...now we wait and see what he (and helenius) popped dirty for
How can fighter be so fast, with cat-like reflexes, but be so defensively irresponsible? I will never understand this guy.
Yes if Mall would have went up to 68 im pretty sure mell would be at 60 or at max after undisputed vacated and moved up

Andre Ward giving Caleb Plant boxing lessons before the Canelo fight was a way to get back at Canelo lol

And Terence Crawford fought him on 2 weeks notice in his first step up fight and handled him succinctly

like i said i wasnt all too impressed with that fight in real time..largely because i was anticipating rios vs alvarado 2 in the main event
crawford beat him but he didnt stop him..i would have liked to see that..esp since mike alvarado was able to do it
