    On point, can't argue with that.

      I think Groves is spot on. There are tougher sanctions for doping in sports that aren’t nearly as dangerous as boxing.
      It is a travesty that boxing can’t ban somebody that has tested positive for steroids multiple times. I think once is a fine and a suspension. The second time and you’re banned for life and possible criminal charges of permanent damage caused. It’s no different to loading up your gloves with bricks.

          heavyweight division is a wasteland so they figure they gotta let the juicers have a second/third chance.

            I agree with Groves. And I'm glad he spoke up on the issue, more fighters need to do so.

              Groves is right.

              They should not only be banned for life but charged with assault as well.

                Definitely one chance second infringement your out. Fighters are putting their lives on the line no need for one to have an unfair advantage over another.

                    Seems like a no brainer to me...but then this is professional boxing where money trumps everything.
