    Yea but unless there is rampid drug use going around, testing a few of literally thousands of fighters wont prove anything. Testing a small percentage could mean that every user could slip through the cracks. What are the chances that the small percentage being tested is actually using

      My guess is that there IS a rampant drug abuse in boxing. One can rip great benefits from the endurance and power EDs.

        Well until that cant be proven with positive test, i dont think the commision will see a reason to make Olympic testing neccesary

          You can prove this ONLY if you can conduct rigorous testing. The current testing system is extremely poor.

          You can start with an experiment by rigorously monitoring 100 fights, and then draw robust conclusions.

              BREAKING NEWS! POVETKIN FOLLOWS PBFs LEAD; WANTS KLITSCHKO TO TAKE RANDOM BLOOD TESTS

              The ripple in the water caused by Floyd Mayweather Jr's demand that he and Manny Pacquiao be randomly drug tested using WADA/USADA standards has reached the former Soviet Union. Wladimir Klitschko's IBF mandatory challenger Alexander Povetkin has reportedly demanded that he and Klitschko be tested by the WADA (World Anti-Doping Agency). Povetkin's manager, Wladimir Hryunov, told Gazeta.ru that the demand has already caused the cancellation of one negotiation between Sauerland (Povetkin's promoter) and Shelly Finkel (Klitschko's manager).

                    tells me two things.

                    1. povetkin doesn't want a fight

                    2. povetkin is scared to lose

                    either or.
