Peds increases stamina, so why dont we just allow it in boxing???

Substances arent banned if they are just performance enhancing alone, they also have to be either, bad for you or are against the spirit of the sport.

theres a number of supplements that help performance that are allowed.

The reason things like EPO that help with endurance are banned is because they are Perfrmance enhancing and dangerous to take.

Typically, a substance or method will be considered for the WADA Prohibited List if the substance or method meets any two of the following three criteria:

1.It has the potential to enhance or enhances sport performance

2.It represents an actual or potential health risk to the athlete

3.It violates the spirit of sport

how you figure that?

you are only looking at it from one perspective. the fact that a fighter has more stamina means he could put himself in better position, better situation to DEFEND HIMSELF. Not only that, a boxer with more stamina could end the fight quicker. instead of two fighters running low and are just beating each other to death with no end in sight.

who do you think is more at risk for brain damage or lmfffaaoo death?

a boxer with full stamina bar or a boxer running low on stamina and open to risk of getting hit?

that's an incredibly ****** reactionary post jas. im sorry to say that.

certain peds should be made legal. it would actually benefit the boxers and prevent them from suffering catastrophic injury.

people need to take a step back from the mob mentality of wanting to lynch and destory the reputation of any athlete that risk his life to take peds which are legal in other aspects of life but is shamelessly illegal for athletes.

YOU OUGHT TO BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF.

It's dangerous when fighters get hit like PAC did vs Marquez and the way Alvarado gotten beaten up every round vs Marquez - a 40 year old who looked faster and stronger than in previous years.

so what does that have to do with stamina?

how many boxers have died because he got beat up by a guy using peds?

I'm not saying Perez was on PEDs vs Magomed. But he was in visibly better shape vs Magomed than vs Jennings. Vs Jennings he gassed. Vs mago he didn't and because he was in better shape he threw and landed more punches.

Let them use plaster wraps too. While we're at it, let's change glove size to 8oz for 154-HW, 6oz for all weight classes under 154.
