Yep. As Bigragu explained boxing is pain. And anything that masks that pain is an advantage.

BTW, most states in the US have ban this drug in boxing matches, even Nevada has followed suit. I believe all boxers should be natural. No pain injections, no PEDs, nothing.

BUt the USADA and WADA says it's not illegal to use, go figure. The plot sure thickens.

What the xylocaine/lidocaine drugs do.

-Increase pain threshold
-Sensation of euphoria
-Feelings of invincibility
-Failure to recognize injury
-psychological stimulation


This is a big discussion now on other boxing boards. And not everyone that is saying that this shit is an unfair advantage is a Pacman dikrider. Bigragu isn't one and neither am I. In fact I have been pretty hard on Pacman for refusing random blood test. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.
i'm confused


You realize that Floyd is the one using xylocaine and not Pacquiao right? for his hands?

I believe the topic is about Mayweather or even DLH who used it before. What does Pac has to do with Floyd or even Oscar using drugs for their hands?
