    What about 2 different sports bodies?

    Like they did with darts,let the old school clean boxers fight bore the crowd to death and the new breakaway PED exciting K.O boxers punch each other lights out with all the razzmatazz?

    Or is that already UFC

    Every name fighter has been on gear since the Ali era. That's the cold hard fact. Time for people to grow up about it or shut the fcuk up and go watch under 12's boxing if they want to see boxing with no gear being taken.

    And the paying public won. That's what we pay for. We want to see supermen in the ring doing the impossible. Tyson vs Holyfield wouldn't have been all that for a HW superfight seeing two 14 stone men go at it.

    Exactly this...

    Do people want to watch the 100 metres final and every year they get slower or do they want to see a superhuman running as fast as a horse?...
    Facts are unless you are playing darts or snooker etc you are going to have to juice to be elite

    It’s quite possible the women’s 100m record will still stand as a complete outlier 40 years from being set. So obviously enhanced - if not ever caught - I’m surprised it doesn’t have an asterisk against the number. A few men have been caught trying to catch Bolt who is either just a freak of nature at his height or his rapid improvement was nobbled.

    I think every other Jamaican sprinter around Bolts era got tested positive...

    I know the naive think it's 1 bad apple but it's more than likely the opposite.

    I have zero interest in these misfits fights ,I've never seen one but on a platform like that you could put on 2 fighters full of roids.

    * edit- we've already had Thor v Eddie Hall
