I don't completely disagree. I mean I like to box for the workout at the gym and to relieve stress but these guys who do it professionally all have obvious brain damage after a few fights anyway. Why not pump them up on steroids and make it that much more entertaining?Comment

Your link point to a great medical site. Thanks for the info on cholesterol and diabetes. However, I didn't see any reference to Aaron Pryor and steroids...just so other knowIn what promoter Bob Arum nicknamed The Battle of The Champions, Pryor defeated Alexis Arguello by a technical knockout in 14 in front of an HBO audience. The fight was named Fight Of The Year and later the Fight Of The Decade by Ring Magazine.
The fight sparked controversy however, because Pryor's trainer, Panama Lewis, introduced a second water bottle which he described as "the bottle I mixed" after round 13. The boxing press which had been heavily 'promoted' by promoter Bob Arum to support Alexis Arguello, seized upon these few words to claim that Pryor's overwhelming knockout victory in this fight was undeserved. [1]
Adding to the controversy, the Florida State Boxing Commission administered a post-fight urine test which Pryor failed testing positive for steroids. [2] [3]
In 1983, after defending his crown against former WBC world champion Sang Hyun Kim (KO 3), Pryor defended against Arguello again, this time winning by a knockout in 10 rounds in Las Vegas on September 9, 1983, but again tested positive for steroids.
You have to watch those high output guys... usually, it's steroids...
