    They're both ok with stepping into the ring with each other without testing. Why do you care if they're testing or not?

    Yea idk why mfers who are b^tching about it ARE b^tching about it.

    Fair play if both fighters want it. Fair play if both fighters don't want it. Til there is someone who takes a lead on PED testing in boxing that has some authority to be doing it this is how it is like it or not.

      Because it just encourages drug use. It's a slippery slope. I look at it this way. The winner needs an opponent but he doesn't want to do VADA because he wants to use PEDS. He finds someone that doesn't want to do PEDS but is broke. They agree because the other needs the money and it snowballs. The only way this is going to stop is if the Commission yanks their licence to box or broadcasters refuse to air fights unless there is VADA testing for at least the top fighters. The WBC is trying to do something right here. Boxing is already on a downslide. Getting caught cheating isn't going to help. If you want to watch the fight that's your business. It's obvious to me they are both going to cheat.

        It’s worth noting that drug testing is being done for this fight, just not through VADA.

        People care because they want to label a fighter they don’t like as a cheater.

            BULL****!!!

            Lack of punishment for drug cheats encourages PED cheats. How you gonna tell a guy not to take PED'S when you see cheaters getting only a 6 month suspension and coming back getting multi million dollar paychecks. Like I said in my thread the other day. If I was a fighter I would use PED'S. There's no real punishment and the reward is worth the risk

              I said yank their lisence to box and broadcasters should refuse to broadcast the fight if there is no VADA. How is that BS??

                I usually agree with you but not on this brotha. Sets a bad precedent for the entire sport. Two of our biggest stars aren’t testing. That’s a problem
