Maybe now with Peterson testing positive it will open up some eyes and push the Random Drug testing issue to the forefront. I like Peterson and his whole coming from nothing story but if he cheated which it looks like he did then I can not support him. I think it's time to finally clean up Boxing. Right now Boxing is in the same spot as Baseball was when all the roid cheats were starting to surface and get exposed. Now hopefully fans will look closely at the Boxers who refuse random drug testing. If you're clean there should be no hesitation in taking a random drug test for the good of the Sport.
    I agree man boxing is a dangerous sport for people to be cheating. every state athletic commission should require random olympic style drug testing. if other less serious sports do it then boxing should.

        At the low end of the sport it is not really feasible, but TV and big cards of a certain finacial level it shoud be required.

            It's amazing how some people think. Rome wasn't built in a day. And the first person who thought of building it was probably ridiculed.

              Martinez is asking Chavez but when asked about for the Macklin fight, Dibella said "it wasnt necessary"
