Boxing Life Stories: Victor Conte
WE ARE BACK!!! This week, I'm delighted to have the colourful and controversial Victor Conte on the podcast.
Conte works with many of the leading fighters in the world, including Terence Crawford, Bam Rodriguez, Devin Haney, Joshua Buatsi and he's recently linked up with Chris Eubank Jnr.
Conte is very much an anti-doping advocate today, but he shot to infamy as the mastermind of the BALCO scandal in 2002, which saw him jailed for four months.
Subsequently, much has been said and written about Conte, including the Netflix Untold special, Hall of Shame, but here he has his say on what he has done, what he is doing, his portrayal in the media, his detractors, his regrets, and PEDs in the sport of boxing.
This is unmissable.

    "Evan Fields" wasn't BALCO, rather, a different steroid distribution operation.

    "Damage" is an awesome book. I hope you revisit this topic in the future as well. I've had time to revisit gyms and have noticed people "behaving weirdly." The more I think about it, the more I realize this "weirdness" is actually just brain damage that's accumulated.

    People from Sandy Hook and Whiting forensics confessed/recorded roles with location/s/names tied to Pito Cardona like a Phil Colello also as their roles inter-campuses with foreign and domestic intelligence, and "criminal enterprises," also abuses of, and/or use/s of the kids of leaders of kids, too, as roles with everyone repeating faked things also changed and faked for them. WFSB, channel three up here, they attached me to faked conversations with them and with others, per planting "predicate acts" collusion/s on/off and next to all natures of crime scenes, and them replacing and faking what's recorded, etc.. They forced a principal child abuser, also per use/s of the kids of doctors, and of prosecutors, and of judges as ones timed collusion/s with foreign nations, and with "criminal enterprises," also Connecticut inter-branch switching names. Wethersfield police are switching names, planting evidences on/off campuses, again, also news roles. Please get them onto paper inter-branch. It's also names on/off Corrections/Judicial offices used planting "predicate acts" roles/collusion/s on/off the difference/s of locations. Note how slavery was entrenched North/South. Note how other was/is communicated for James Madison, and for George Washington and the founders behind/as James Madison and his plan George Washington agreed to use; counter-extorting the first thirteen states from even more than thirteen colonies. The same names forced Saudis to collusion/s with police phones families wire crimes faked ties to kids into police records, medical, same ones with more child offenders, and on/off the Capitol, use/s of mayors. Forgiveness is to not leave out the breaching method/s with blame. The same names forced collusion/s also not realizing as all sides case in court next to WTC towers the day of the attack. Connecticut had roles with use/s of al sides and the difference/s. I know Paul fought him. I fought Paul at the Ohio State fair just noting. @judgenap

    Really enjoyed this interview! Henry Castle is a great guy and he still trains people at Salisbury gym and Southampton as well. I feel like he was robbed in his last fight, against Buckland. He beat Graham Earl and that was just after Amir Khan had beat Earl. Both beat him in one round, but I think Henry won it quicker than Amir did. Just finished a training session at Salisbury gym with Henry and he really puts us through it, but we also learn a great deal when he teaches us. Wouldn't want to mess with him in his day or even now for that matter haha! Top interview this!!
