A blood/oxygen booster like EPO is very dangerous when used without Hemocrit monitoring equipment. Several cyclists that began using this in the early '90s died from heart attacks in their sleep because their blood thickened while not active. It's not something you want just anybody playing with.

You must never allow PED use in professional sports of direct competitive nature, for obvious and multiple reasons.
If so, it'll become a sideshow sport and it's participants will be regarded as such.
Class must be maintained in the sport.Comment

it has nothing to do with hardcore or trying to be badass.
do you not understand that there is another perspective to see about this subject?
im not trying to troll here.
why is it ok for you or me to use medication made by the ingenuity of man to enhance our performance to make money to get something accomplished, to be a better person but somehow if an athlete takes it, its some abhorrent affront to life and justice?
do you not understand that PEDS keep athletes safe, allow them to perform at a high sometimes artistic level for the masses to enjoy, allow them to make a great deal of money to provide a better life for their families?
why is it so wrong for them to take something so they can achieve those things? THERE IS NO RISK TO YOU. THEY ARE THE ONE TAKING THE RISK.
Do you not know that every governing body by every sport already allows athletes in their respective sports LEGALLY DEEMED OK PEDS? That they make those decisions almost arbitrarily without any real medical justification?
Its 2015.
Its time to move away from UTTERLY IDIOTIC SELF RIGHTEOUS IDEAS like JESUS AND ALLAH ARE real and that peds taken by athletes is somehow some evil deed and abomination to fair play.
Its not.
Its human evolution, progress and brilliance of mankind.Comment

IMO most pro athletes use em bro so dont even sweat it hahaha
the better money they make the more access they have to a ton of substances out there that are not detectable.
Dont u find it awesome when a soccer player ( to put an example ) gets seriously injured and after a month he is playing again at a very high level... do they have super human abilities to recover ? ... think again bro
The physiques of the athletes of everysport has changed dramatically in the last couple of decades, thats a combination of nutrition and yeah ... lets call it "sports technology"Comment

fck off. no.
you watch sports because you want to be entertained. i want to see my athletes perform at extraordinary levels. you take drugs to continue living. to stay alive and healthy to make money.
why cant athletes?
its absolutely absurd people were su****iously hating on ray lewis when he came back from injury with deer antler spray. so what?
why would you not want to legalize a drug that helps heal athletes quicker? wtf is so wrong with that?
why did kobe have to go to germany to get platelet therapy that is illegal in america?

Big problem is getting universal controls in place in boxing. As it is now it's up to the fighters camps signing the contracts as to whether there are going to be any controls or not. Not only that but the tests have to be administered in a timely manner or they are useless to anyone savvy as to beating the tests.
There is going to be resistance to any kind of universal controls in this sport so long as you have so many sanctioning bodies influenced by promoters and fighter's camps that don't really want their fighters tested. It's hard enough to get this right in cycling where you have one sanctioning body.....with a recent history of corruption itself.Comment

Speaking on epo
***8220;I think it should be regulated,***8221; said Dr. Goodman. ***8220;I think it should be tested for in an appropriate way. No I don***8217;t think it should be legalized because I think that number one nobody knows how potentially harmful these things are and how harmful are the usage of these things to someone***8217;s opponent. And plus, it takes the fairness out of the sport. I guess you can argue that with baseball or the NFL or any of these other endeavors whether or not it is the right thing to do. I just think that it***8217;s important for someone to not be on some sort of performance enhancing substances if they are going to be beating somebody else in the head. It***8217;s just not fair to the opponent. It***8217;s not fair to the sport and it is not what boxing is about.***8221;
