Comments Thread For: Kauffman: Don't Blame Luis Ortiz; He Cheats Because They Let Him

[W1LL]

Travis Kauffman is actually a step up in class for Luis Ortiz, compared to his most recent victories.

Ortiz won't need nothing to deal with him though

He ain't even talking trash, he's 100% right. They NEED to get more serious with drug testing. I have a feeling that we would be disgusted to see the true number of fighters that are on some form of banned substance and getting away with it. That's why when someone does get caught they should make the penalty so serious that it will deter people from taking the risk. Should have in contracts that if you are caught with banned substance than you forfeit your purse for that fight to the opponent and take a year suspension or something. 2nd offence 2 years. 3rd offence 3 etc. If you try to get an illegal edge than you should sit down for enuff time to make a difference. Some may end up having to sit out parts of their prime. Surely something strict like this would make all fighters think twice before attempting to cheat.

They should make it a criminal offence like they have done in France and some other countries. But it won't happen, they won't even do it in the UK, so no chance that happens in the US. Doping in boxing now is so prevalent there isn't a fighter who is free from su****ion.

I applaud Kauffman. He’s right. We have a middleweight champion (he really lost both fights) who failed not one but TWO tests and guess what? He’s the $365 million man!

Agreed. We can hope but it's all we can do.

Drug testing is a scam, they should just get rid of it entirely.
