    What a ****ing joke.

    Boxing is an utter disgrace when it comes to testing.

    Why are the American commissions so unwilling to enforce random drug testing?

    I don't understand why across the major organisations they can't come to some agreement about this to be honest.

    Porter tried delaying the fight to go through every possible loophole to get out of testing.

    It's pro sport. In other words, it's business.

    And most fans are naive mugs.

    There are drugs involved, always have been, always will be..

    Just enjoy it for what it is.

    And Kell Brook says there is. We don't know who's right. I hope there is drug testing though to make things fair and keep the fighters safe.
