    Quite a simple thread, what do you want to see next year, It don't have to be fights, it could be anything to do with the sport?

    I would like to see Uncle Frank grow a set of bollocks and maybe put his fighters in decent fights, personally.

    I also want to see better looking ring card girls in the UK, I only have 60 seconds at the end of a round to thrash one out, so the least they can do is give me some better material to work with.

    I do wish for drug cheats to be heavily punished, minimum 4 year ban, that might make the ****ers think twice about cheating.

    Proper procedures put in place for drug testing, as opposed to the issue being decided over the negotiating table.

    ''I'll let you take this, if I can take that - we can get USADA not to test for it''

    Deal!

    God knows.

    Apparently the USDA regime costs in the region of £80k for full OSDT, but WADA and VADA :)nut) costs next to nothing.

    I suppose Bob Arum was right back in 2010 when he said that USADA had no credibility, it's all come out in the wash in the past few months.

    The problematic individual for me is Haymon, and Schaefer - who has well and truly lived up to the reputation of a typical banker.... lying and cheating constantly to get his way.

    The TV companies should basically say ''we don't want a drug cheat on our channel'' - it'll send out the message that if you cheat, you won't earn money - but Haymon appears to be able to fix anything.

    Might send him my car next time it breaks down.

    The issue of testing shouldn't be sorted around the table, it should be mandatory, and accepted as such by the participants.

    Tennis players (Nadal aside :hey) have to let testers know where they are pretty much 24/7, I remember Andy Murray saying it's annoying and sometimes you forget but it's worth it as it keeps the sport clean, or rather, cleaner until someone gets caught.

    I think I'm right in saying that hardly any tennis players get caught cheating, because they know they'll be ****ed if they are.

    The punishment needs to act as a deterrent, in boxing a six month ban doesn't mean **** all, it's only a slightly longer than normal (for most) break between fights.

    I just want Tom Dallas to return tbh.

    Oh and Froch-Kessler, but that's not as important.
