When you say steroids, you give the impression that all they do is make you bigger.
What you are not realizing is there there are a bunch of other performance enhancing drugs that increase enduance, increase adrenaline so you don't feel as much pain, make your eyesight better, so you have better hand-eye coordination, and make you recover from workouts faster.
Someone taking all of Conte's Balco drugs is going to get more than just bigger and stronger, they are going to become a better athlete. Notice that I said better athlete, not better boxer, baseball player, etc because in the case of DLH vargas, DLH had the better technique throughout the fight and wore down Vargas.
If a boxer who is even with another starts taking all these drugs, many of which have very little side effects (unlike the steroids of the 80s) he will have a clear advantage in the fight, but unlike something like Track or swimming, there is more too it than just being faster than the other person in boxing. So you have to look at the big picture.
There is an article in outdoors ****zine about a 40 year old guy that started taking these drugs to see the effects and not to compete directly and he talks about the improvements that he makes and how tempting it must be for world class athelets to use and abuse them. I will post a link to it later if I can find it.
