Which is worse?

Roids can also give a fighter the mental edge, if he knows he took roids, he feels he is invincible, besides, there's different kinds of steroids that have different results. Not all just buff you up, some enhance your stamina, I think that's what Mosley used, where it raised your red blood cell count and allowed more oxygen in you. That is actually not a steroid its blood doping but your right it is used for an increase in stamina. Tour De France guys test for this and thats what a few of them have been caught with.

Cheating in boxing should be dealt with in the most serious way and with the harshest consequences. The reason I feel this way is because, in boxing like no other sport, a cheater is potentially hurting a man with the possibility of ending his health,carreer, or potentially his life. Boxing has a balance that has developed over time that allows for the top performers in the sport to understand the limits of the other guy to an extent, cheaters disrupt this balance. The sport is still developing, a long time ago I heard George Foreman sugest a head band that would protect the neurological sensitivity of a fighter, this to me seemed like a good idea. cheating in other sports like basketball, baseball or football causes monetary damage for the most part, however in boxing the consequences are the worst. on a side note: trainers, managers and promoters who go into contract with a kid at the begining of his carreer should sign an agreement to take care of the man if he should get damaged neurologically and phisically. just saying.

steroids would increase a fighters strengh and speed..cause they could train harder substantially? i thought they helped add bulk, and we all know muscles aren't the be all and end all in boxing

i am not very knowledgable on this subject admittedly, but it was my understanding that steroids in boxing were mainly used to help fighters move up weight classes effectively? if this is the case, then it is far less serious than plastering your gloves can someone explain what other benefits taking steroids might give a boxer?

The plaster can seriously hurt someone, or maybe even kill them... If he got caught after the match and he had fought with that in the match, he would have been arrested.

There is an even simpler question. Would you rather fight a guy who took steroids or a guy who has loaded gloves. I'd personally prefer to go against the guy who just takes roids.

He could do serious damage, for real.
