          it's not that popular compared to other traditional asian martial arts here.

Given the events of the past few weeks, it seems many fans don't care either. Then you wonder why athletes like FloJo and others are dropping dead (RIP).
            Exactly!!! No one can vouch for someone else, I could have sworn Andre Agassi was the cleaness athlete in sports until i find out the man was on drug the whole fvkking time.

            If they implement tough and stricter testing into Boxing dont be surprise to see most of the top boxers retired all of a sudden, Flo-Jo broke all those records and people still put a (*) whenever they talk about her.

              I can imagine this scenario happening as well, as for Flo Jo she retired after the whole Ben Johnson scandal. If she wasn't prepared to deal with the long term consequences then she should of kept away from steroids.

                It's a shame people have to cheat to gain advantages rather than rely on their own natural physical attributes to compete.

                Using performance enhancers doesn't even guarantee anyone will win in any event.
