Comments Thread For: Bellew: I'm Disgusted - Drug Cheats Must Be Banned For Life!

[_Rexy_]

I actually agree with Bellew...weird

grey area though, Id say second pinch gets you banned for life, just because there are so many grey areas with PED's in boxing. If it's a legit PED like HGH or Anabolic Steroids, etc. then yes, lifetime ban. If it's a situation like when Stiverne tested positive after his fight because he had an energy bar before his match not knowing there was a specific ingredient in it...that doesn't warrant a lifetime ban. So there is a grey area. Also, I would like to see Cannabis removed entirely from the banned substance list, then maybe you won't have fighters taking harmful opioids because they're afraid of pissing dirty.

Ad Hominem attack committed by you = you are dismissed!

Far from the truth, I was actually trying to be helpful. I think your knowledge of terms like objectivity, ad hominem etc is less complete than it could be and that the way you deploy them, actually detracts from your argument rather than supporting it. However you don't appear to be confident enough to address such an observation. That's unfortunate.

UKAD are a complete joke as bellew rightly points out.

UKAD are also responsible for testing AJ, the most obvious drug cheat in world sport.

He said something to the effect of being able to go 12 with anyone in boxing, last year. Then he called out Ortiz. I respect Bellew.

Well, there is a bit of a red flag or reason to be a bit su****ious about AJ, but time will tell If he is using something I'm sure he won't remain undetected forever if he is.

I'm sure a billion dollar athlete like AJ will always be 1 step ahead of UKAD who are on that verge of going bankrupt.

The highest profile athletes are always the least likely to get caught. Just ask lance Armstrong.

Yeah I don't doubt it, I just wonder how accessible they are to say your average professional athlete. Although the testing agencies have a constant uphill battle they still have substantial resources backing them, so you wonder how big these illegal chemist operations are and how much they charge.

AJ and his drug dealing background would have plenty of connections to obtain peds.
