People still don’t get
it PED’s are a problem in Boxing. When Floyd Mayweather Jr first implemented
his “anyone who fights me has to test” system people ostracized him calling him
afraid. But after Andre Berto, Lamont Peterson, Antonio Tarver, and Ali Adams
to name a few have all tested positive for PED’s he looks like a boxing
prophet. Allow me to reiterate that boxing is a life and death sport; someone will
die in the ring this year (boxing averages 11 deaths per year). Yet and still people
continue to ignore PED’s in the sport, 21 July 2012 boxer Adrian Bronner came
in 3.5 pounds overweight for his fight and he has been dogged in the media more
than Antonio Tarver who just failed his drug test. Bronner was fined $ 60,000
while Tarver was fined only $2,500 doesn’t anyone see the insanity in
this? When a man is hitting a baseball,
or swimming, or dunking a basketball I am not as concerned about PED’s but when
a man is hitting another man’s skull potentially hundreds of times in a fight I
have a huge issue with it.
By the way if a guy
turns down 40 million to make 20 million then I want a test for crack more than
PED’s but hey that’s just my opinion
sorry, Manny.
