    Let's start with the premise that most people believe PEDs in boxing are a serious problem.
    Having established that it is a serious problem, the next step is to identify viable solutions.

    Cost, when weighed against the potential health and life risks that PEDs represent in the ring, should not be an obstacle toward providing a solution. More than adequate explanations have been provided as to how the financials would easily be worked out.

    What would be the next excuse to delay doing something?

    Everything from baseball to cycling is rife with it, but you think it's anything but rife in an already corrupt sport were under performing means getting punched in the face 100s of times, concussed, brain damaged or killed?

    I understand your point but we can't keep going around accusing fighters every time they have a great performance or look different physically. I'm all for better state commission drug testing but until then I rather give fighrers the benefit of the doubt.

    Yes that gets me a bit also. Manny had not even woke up yet and allegations started. Never mind the fact that Marquez only weighed 143 or 1 pound more the the last go, was heavy into weight training and landed a punch that would have ko'd half the planet.
