Should boxers who tests positive for PEDS be banned from competing for a lifetime?

No, that's pretty harsh to ban someone forever who may pop for some tainted supplement or false positive (I know, probably rare but it could happen).

I'm much more in favor of harsh financial penalties going to the clean fighter for this (90% of purse or something like that) and especially missing weight harsh financial penalties.

 

There should be a line. Repeat offender should be treated harshly

 

Isn’t it hard enough to get the fights we want, without introducing more inhibitors & caveats in the mix?

 

Yes. 100%.

 

And what if Inoue tested positive one day, what would you say then?

 

Same thing I would say if Pac had popped dirty. Permanent ban.

 

And their children shouldn't be allowed to box either!

No ways Jose!

 

As long as a the fighter proves that a doctor prescribed a medication that contains the banned substance and/or gives advance notice, then no, no ban or punishment.

 

100% YES!!!! ban for life. Its the only way to curb the blatant cheating & corruption They be no more " Mr Mayweather did nothing wrong" or Canelo had atainted steak when he had lunch with Clinton ROFL !!!!!!!

 

We should make a list of all the guys who popped dirty

 

Don't forget Steroid Shane Mosely ?? He claimed to have passed two polygraphs claiming he thought he was being treated for hay fever Till BALCO produced the receipts & he had to come clean & admit he took steroids. Was he punished?? Hell No he was inducted into the HOF ROFL

 

Povetkin's positive tests were not for steroids. The amount of a previously legal supplement in his blood was infinitesimally tiny. VADA declared him positive because of political reasons, and because Wilder/Haymon did not want to fight him.

Jarrell Miller on the other hand tested positive for multiple steroids.

Others who tested positive include Roy Jones, Tyson Fury, James Toney (multiple times), Dillian Whyte, Shannon Briggs, Luis Ortiz, Bermane Stiverne, Billy Joe Saunders and Kid Galahad.

 

And if they doctor their gloves, prison for attempted murder.
