Why cant boxing fans simply want better drug testing..

[BrotherDudeJack]

anyone who doesn't want a better testing is an idiot

as long as it is in the true nature of "for the betterment of the sport" and not politically motivated by some oppurtunists

this...................................

NSAC already said OST testing is not safe in pro boxing. Let them do their job as they know more about drug testing than us.

[led]

without being a "*****" or "hater" ?

Is it impossible for a boxing fan to simply think testing should be stricter?

Why cant we simply want our "heroes", "idols", or favorite boxers to be equal to their opponent?
(without siding or downing any boxer)


PLEASE DO NOT MENTION PAC IN THIS THREAD

Let us support it if its under commission's regulation. Also, not all fight can afford this expensive testing.

Oh btw, why wasnt Pascal asked Bhop (both of them get under this test) when Pascal said Bhop might be under PEDs?

bcause a certain fighter is scared of needels duuuuh!

[maguirre]

I support better testing! What do we do now?

If it is mandatory he will take it. It's not in the rules...it's a smoke to get psychological advantage over someone.

nobody's against better testing in the first place so what's the point of this thread? if you are pushing for a olympic style testing in boxing but only after floyd sr talked about it and after floyd jr demanded it then you're fake. it's all fanboy stuff. i haven't seen anybody here supporting better testing before the pac-floyd controversy so this kind of threads doesn't prove anything.

This has been discussed before...it is because it is too expensive. Imagine doing blood testing or OST for all fights including 4 rounders? Who's gonna pay?

it won't get done for all fights and all fighters, it's a sliding scale like every other sport where the top tier athletes are tested the most, with fighters at the lower tiers being tested less often, but still randomly.

This argument is crap, and i suspect you know that.

That's true....but most people (like me and probably you) didn't know boxing's testing procedures. I just assumed it was the same style as they do in am's for olympics and the like.

This controversy has highlighted a certain FACT that no one can dispute:


Professional boxing's PED detection regime is a complete and utter disgrace!

"I was a USADA fan before I was ever a boxing fan. I do like boxing, but USADA comes first. They just do it for me.

Ive only seen 1 pro fight in my entire life, and you can guess which one it was. I refuse to watch anything that doesnt have USADA involvement.

USADA is the only way to go. The ONLY way"
