Tony Thompsons doping comments

[beenKOed]

This isn't strange at all, you can completely see where a guy like Thompson is coming from. He's an old, solid veteran who has probably been clean and worked his ass off his whole career. Clearly he wouldn't throw this out without having a pretty good idea of how rampant doping is in the sport, and he probably feels that he's likely been cheated a couple of times himself. He would certainly be slightly more informed than the chap who's apparently "sickened" over his comments! I'm not ideally in favour of the legalization thing of course, but I honestly think it may be a fairer system than what is currently in place. All of these banned substances(which differ everywhere) aren't unlike the gun law at all, it's a perfectly good point. Without adequate standardized testing, or anything even CLOSE to it in many cases, outlawing banned substances truly can punish the fighters who choose to stay clean.

I agree, until every pro is being tested, we're spinning our wheels. A lot of noise but no real progress.
