Whilst this is admirable idea some fighters aren't even getting paid what it costs to cover the price of a PED test let alone the multiple that would be required for this to be effective long term or worst still some are actually paying to fight.

If there is no "grassroots" boxing there is no boxing.

I agree with Pauli’s here that testing would have to start at the grassroots level. It seems that it’s only the higher profile fights that get tested and highlighted in the media. That makes it easier for up and coming guys to get away with it imo
