    I agree , but when it's deemed a mega fight the promoters should stump up the cash for it , small hall shows ? I can see the promoters argument for not implementing it .

    I'm of the opinion these days, scrap testing, let everyone go for it.

    Someone could be born with naturally occurring 200% higher test levels than someone else, should the guy with less be allowed to put his to same level as the other guy who was born that way.

    Open the gates, let everyone do whatever they want and it will be exciting as ****.

    It's not juice that is the problem in aus boxing it's meth . Too many blokes walking through crazy punishment like they are superman . Be a matter of time before some **** has a heart attack in the ring . We all know that **** increases your heart rate and a fighters heart rate is high enough to begin with . It's a recipe for disaster .

    They should test Aussie boxers for a lack of skills imo.

    Test when they sign up for a fight and a month or so before.testing at the weigh in would most probably end with a fair few fights called off

    Not many match-ups stay in tact 4 weeks by fight night. Most promoters are usually stuck looking for replacements @ short notice.

    I'd kill to be a Promoter.....can't think of a better job :lol:
