  • Are People With HIV/AIDs Not Allowed To Box?

    Some people have HIV/AIDS and do not know they have it for years as the symptoms can take years to appear, Anyone here can have it without knowing. Im not sure if Boxers are tested for Aids and if they have it they are not allowed to box incase they spread the disease to others?

    Anyone know what happens in this case?

      Even if they were, no one would want to fight them. A clash of head and both fighter get cut, the other fighter most likely will get the virus

        Dang! I can understand why they dont allow it but you and me can have the disease without knowing, I guess they are tested before bouts or something.

                    Commissions do health check and fighters have to pass a medical, blood is taken and tested.
