    Default Why is Cocaine back as a drug for athletes?

    Big names like Tyson Fury and Jon Jones are finding it hard to quit the nose candy. How is it that this drug has snuck back into the sports world at such a high level?

    Don't they know not to take that stuff?

    It has status and is accessable. A cool drug.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Tell them it is cool after a few years and a hole in the wallet, heart and brain. In the 21st century drugs like that are for squares.

    Even if you want a high, there are sooooo many other "uppers" that are LEGAL you can have other than Coke. Coke is just bad, bad bad!!!

    I had some great times on coke when I was younger, it was never my favourite drug, give me speed any day, then again I'm not a professional athlete who faces regular drugs tests.

    people take coke because just a little bit can give enough of a bump without being overly noticeable to those who are not on it.

    I remember seeing an interview with Johnny Tapia where he explained that there is no greater feeling than being in the ring during a fight. The athletes are fighting for their lives against live opposition, surrounded by thousands of screaming fans, knowing that there are millions watching around the world, with hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars on the line. They're full of adrenaline, they're the biggest heroes, everyone is in awe of them. There is no better feeling--How could there be? So after the fight, what can they do to get that kind of euphoria? Whats going to make them feel like the greatest living thing on earth? Whats going to make them feel like the almighty invincible creature they know they can be? They can only fight 3 or 4 times in a year, even less when they've reached the highest level of the sport. So it's easy to understand why cocaine would be the next best thing.

    Johnny Tapia was an addict of many things.
