they say she took steroids, etc...; it has never been proven. until real proof comes forth i'll just have to accept her as the greatest ever. if it was drugs, i wonder if that contributed to her early death.
fuck everyone who deosn't know what their talking about!!! during flo jo's autopsy they didn't find any steroids in her system!! AND PLUS EVEN MARION JONES COULDN'T RUN THIS FAST WHEN SHE WAS ON STEROIDS!! so flo jo's talent is all NATURAL!!! show respect to a LEGEND!!
If she was talking drugs it would not make her go from loosing to gapping people that big. So even if she was juicing, she would have still won. Educate yourself ass-wipes
@minkskarma yes ben johnson on drugs but margin was smaller !! The marrion jones too , but nowhere (aguably) near flo joes performance , and her physique was , again arguably greater with better training compared to pre 1988
I heard something a few years ago about Evelyn Ashford accusing Flo-Jo of drug taking... did she have concerns then in 1988 - if she did, why didn't she refuse to run alongside her in the relay?
Her own teammate Evelyn Ashford complained about her drug use! She had been a professional athlete for years when she suddenly improved by half a second over 100m in a few months, even though she was already 28! As soon as out of competition drugs testing was announced she retired, she cheated and everyone in athletics knows it. Eventually her records will be removed from the books,
tww08-The International Olympic committee knows thats who.. that is why her record is officially recognized as the fastest time ever run by a woman in the 100m & 200m. The only people who don't know are haters and losers who have absolutely no proof whatsoever to back up ther claims that she was using drugs. Bcuz if they had any real shred of proof against her it would have come up years ago by other nations who despise America anyway.
TO all the LOSERS who keep crying about how Flo Jo was on drugs. If u really believe it then File a complaint with the IOC and have them overturn her world records. other than that SHUT UP...PLEEZ.....only LOSERS sit back and assume that just bcuz they don't have a snowballs chance in hell at doing anything noteworthy,, that other people can't either. Again...if you believe she was doping and a grave injustice has been done to the world o T&F then do something about it. Until then SHUT UP!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!! I couldn't have said it better. Flo Jo set those records20 YEARS AGO! And people are still bitching! Thje woman has been dead for 11 years, she has a teenage daughter for christ's sake, does any of the HATERS think that she way xcome up on Youtube, and has to read these negative comments made about her mother???
I think she was a good sprinter , but this is just to much, but it´s almost a fair game back then since most people cheated, damn... that they couldn´t expose the drug users back then, nowadays the testing is very good so few records are broken.
do you even watch track????? How many times has the world record been broken in the last 4 years....including this past Olyimpics and this past Sunday...WTH???
Aqua thank you!! I have been saying that for years!! I ran track... Once a woman breaks 11 in the 100m even to this day her times barely moves it drops in hundredths!! Flo dropped 1/2 second from 10.9 to 10.49.. Went from looking feminine to looking like my brother.. Women don't produce testosterone like that unless it's assisted in a major way!!!
So your brother is toned up a woman with long hair, and 6 inch nails? Most TOP FEMALE ATHLETES are bulky, Serena Williams comes to mind....just another HATER.
It would be more plausible if she was anywhere near these 1988 times in the past or even since. She knew the game was up as the next year was compulsory drug testing(1989) so for me that is why she retired so quickly after the Olympics.
pls try to have more respect . Does it matter now ? 9 years ago it was believed that marion jones was going to be the all time great and maybe beat flo jos record . Despite it being revealed she was taking drugs , she could not do it . Athletes have gotten faster and retiring later does that mean they all must be cheating ?? yr talking hundredths of a second , second very fast . People have achieved great feets , great imrovements in short time .
She competed at the Tokyo Grand Prix Ocotber 7 1988 after the Seoul Olympics. She won In a time of 10.91 with Evelyn Ashford taking seconding In 11.++
Theres a great splitscreen pic of Flo-jo in 1986 to 1988...the bulk in muscle grwoth was ridiculous. Steroids.
Dr.Wade Exum the leading US anti-doping official revealed documentation in 2004 that between 1988-2000 over 100 US Olympians tested positive for steroids but was covered up by the US Olympic commitee...one such case being Carl lewis who tested positive for 3 banned steroids at 1988 US trials...concealed by US officials. This was before Balco that other US disgrace.
If that is true, then why are we only hearing about Lewis'positive test and not flo jo's? And for the record, I don't doubt that it is possible that she took drugs. But increased musculature and a blurb saying many US athletes were positive isn't enough to convince me of anything.
Just for the record, you probably couldn't run that. You gotta be real fast in the first place if you expect to run REALLY REALLY fast with drugs. Drugs don't make couch potatoes into world class record-breaking champions.
Flo Jo HAD to be on something from 1987 to 1988 as it is not conceivably possible to lower the 100m time from 10.90 to 10.49 seconds in 6 months without an "aid"! Wake up here!
I hear you. I do. I know that it is an astounding feat. But a couple things, the real record, according to experts is 10.61. The time she ran in winning the trials. Yeah it is still big to improve that much. But many athletes have done that in the same amount of time. Mike Marsh, b4 he ran 19.7, hadn't been under 20.2. Gwen Toreence went from 22.0 to 21.7. Juliet Cuthbert: 11.1 to 10.8. Shelley Ann fraser: 11.31 to 11.7. It's big but it's possible.
Still not convinced as she was NO WHERE NEAR those times in ANY WAY before! That for me proves something was not on the level with Flo Jo's times in 1988.
I can't prove anything. I don't KNOW what FloJO did. I don't exclude the possibility of drugs. Similarly, the possibility of working her ass off shouldn't be dismissed either. My point is that many athletes have cleanly made big jumps within a year's time. If they could, why not FloJo?
thats my point exactly . If flo jo was scared of drug testing , not health reasons for retiring , why did she labor hard to make comeback as late as 1996 ??
flo was running 10.8's in 84.four years of trainingshe could easily run in the 10.6's.she quit to start a family.people have all these stupid theories.she passed every test including the coroner test who didnt see no signs of a steroid related death!if you look her time they gradually went down from84 to 88.
Naw, Im sure she was using THQ (a synthetic steroid) undetectable until around the year 2000. The effects aren't as severe as anabolics but for a woman it will cause virility internally and externally.
cause she didn't have that nasty 80s set hair do, but she still had the long gorgeous hair, but by 88 she started looking too manly, and her voice wasn't just husky, it was the voice of an Arizona truck driver's
Judging from how deep her voice was by the time her world records came, and how her beautiful face adopted such a broad, manley feel in comparision to before, I would guess she was on testosterone, yes.
I agree with warmachine. Speculation goes nowhere and until there solid evidence against hher, then those records will never be duisconted. Nobody can say 4 sure you can only give ur opinions and opinions are worthless. Plus she passed the same tests Ben Jonson failed in the same year of 88'
Merlene ottey was the best sprinter ever because she was at the top of womens sprinting from 1979 - 2002, thats 23 years! Flo Jo had one remarkable season and retired when the IAAF introduced compulsory random testing and a wider compilation of banned substances. Ottey worked hard to be at the top but was never able cut it at major champs. If Ottey doped, she would have destroyed Flo Jo's records. Ottey ran 21.64 clean, which is way off what Flo Jo acheived when she was clean!
If ya think Ottey was clean ur crazy. What women at the age of 37 runs a 10. 74? I findf her more suspect than flo jo. Plus she has failed a drugs test b4 so what does that tell u.
she was 36 and it is possible. She devoted her life to track and if she were on drugs, her remarkable form would have been more consistent. She ran that 10.74 a couple weeks after being defeated yet again at the olympics
Anyway, whats more remarkable are the times shes run more recently. Even in her mid - late 40s she still hitting 11.1. She would have died by now if she were doping for even the last half of her career
we shouldn't ask why she didn't try to defend her titles but instead ask why before this was she nothing more than an AVERAGE runner and then BAM suddenly she breaks every world record??????????? It doesn't take a doctors degree to know why.
Avergae number? Flo Jon won the silver medal in 84' 200, Always finished up either 1st, 2nd and 3rd in 200 and 100 prior to this. So MORE than an average numbeer my friend. Funnny you mention doctors. Doctors are the one's that said she was CLEAN she was tested many times and there was never anything on her. FACTS!-which goes a long way. Speculation however goes nowhere.
Didn't she die of a heart attack at the age of 38? Normal athletes don't die of heart attacks at such a young age. Her heart obviously coudn't take all the muck that she was ingesting over the years.
She may have been clean according to testers but everyone knows the masking agents they used made the testing process futile. The testers knew they were being conned but there was nothing they could do about it.
i feel that with top athletes, there is always the possibility of early death, as they push or have pushed themselves to the max over and over. now i'm not clearing flo jo (we'll never know what she did/didn't take), but give me a break: the lady is dead.
I don't know if you know this but throughout the 1980's the entire East German team of athletes, swimmers ect were drugged by the East German sporting councils unbeknownst to most of the athletes. at the time it was pretty easy to get away with, cause they only tested after races. Flo jo was on drugs, there's no doubt.
Yeah she got silver in 84, but what was her finishing time? A PB of 22.04 which even by today's standards is mediocre! 0.7 seconds slower than her doped performance in this. Then, they were only tested during champs, not randomly as they do today. Plus it was much harder to detect certain substances in those days than today - it was easier to get away with in 1988 basically - and ultimately she was nothing without her artificially injected testosterone. Come on, she almost male in Seoul 88!
Um no she didnt drug testing was goin on in the 50's they advanced in 1982 then advanced even more during the years, she was getting on with her life, then she tried to make a comeback in 96 but pulled a muscle
Apparently being the best runenr in the world means you're always gonna be accused of steroids...can't people just accept the fact that some people have a natural god-given talent?
I dont believe it was roids! People can only speculate, If it were roids , then why in this day and age where technolgy is so advanced no one can run like this.I've never seen a better form and no one can deny it. 19 yrs later and not even Victor Conte Can come close, simply because it was God Plan.
they say she took steroids, etc...; it has never been proven. until real proof comes forth i'll just have to accept her as the greatest ever. if it was drugs, i wonder if that contributed to her early death.
