There is no excuse and I would ban them for life plus make them refund every penny of PPV Loot under the Proceeds of Crime Act.
Two year ban for a first offence, four year ban for a second offence, lifetime ban for a third offence.
It is essentially fraudulently gained money. Also how many clean boxer have been defeated by a juicer and never went on to earn big as a result. I hope 2 juicers fight and one get seriously hurt. Then this whole mess might be looked at properly
Should be a criminal offense, especially in boxing when it could be endangering the life of an opponent
Big Dave Price has been on the receiving end against 2 PED fighters, although I do accept his limitations in the ring. TT stopped him twice and his confidence totally evaporated with his career in tatters. We have PED Fury, PED Whyte, PED Povetkin and no doubt others raking in the PPV loot. All wrong in my opinion.
Other: free for all Since there isn’t the resources or the administration skill to effectively identify and ban cheats. We are currently left with the worst of both worlds. Those with the money and the power can do PEDs and even get caught and get away with it. Whilst your average fighter is left at a massive disadvantage!
Its a reality though. Who is the idiot here? Pricey getting bounced by doped boxers. All because he wants to do it ‘clean’. Or those at the top raking it in because they have that ‘edge’ that PEDs gives them.
If it’s steroids then you should be banned for life on the first offence. Anyone willing to put something like that in their body and proceed to punch people in the face should be no where near a boxing ring. I think exceptions should be made for stuff that could have been accidental and they have a legitimate excuse. And I don’t consider eating contaminated meat one of them tbh.
