Should Floyd be allowed to use xylocaine for his hands?

True, xylocaine does not enhance a boxer's abilities. But the opponent, who did not use xylocaine, is capable of injuring his hands during the fight thus rendering them ineffective. Now, does that look like a level playing field?

The opponent has the option of using it though, he is not doing something his opponent is not allowed to do.

Like I said before, I would be fine with the NSAC banning Xylocaine, but I don't think Floyd should be singled out as not being allowed to use it.
