If Tyson Fury fails one more PED test, should he be Banned for Life?

They should perma ban ANYONE who fail for a banned substance just once....
Although it seems much better for just to include Tyson seen as he's the one boxer people have an agenda with at the moment...
Tyson's served one ban (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong).
The rest dropped.. do we act as juror and hang boxers for those crimes even though they are dropped?
The system stinks but it is what it is,Comment

Fury actually refused to take a PED test when he was visited in 2016 by a doping control officer. Under WADA rules, if a boxer refuses to take a test, it's deemed to be a failed test and he has to be banned for a minimum of 4 years as it's an intentional offence. Fury got away with only a backdated 2 year ban for the nandrolone. The additional 4 year ban was somehow avoided, I think because of his "mental health" defense.
Imagine if they had gone strictly by the rules and Fury got that 4 year ban, both Wilder fights would never have happened!Comment

Both charges for nandrolone and ******* were upheld. No charges were dropped. Fury got a 2 year backdated ban for the nandrolone and he just got a warning for the ******* with no ban.

So whichever way we are looking at it, the 2 year ban is the only recorded/official ban he's had? Which he served while he was out anyways... Lucky boy then.Comment
