Can we have a good fight on May 5th instead of GGG vs Spike O'Sullivan?

Then don’t fight for “religious” reasons in the first place.

Nah, but he can be scared of scissors.

Serious question.

Can, let's say Canelo, decline any further testing and claim religious beliefs?

No. And if that ever happened...then you might as well allow PED use in boxing.

You can only be scared of needles while having multiple tattoos

He could but it would be the same as failing the test. A boxer's religious beliefs don't change the rules. They are the same for everyone.
