Imagine suing somebody for battery in a professionally sanctioned fight.

A question NO ROID RAGER wants to ask

Hey, Google......
Why are steroids banned in boxing ?!?

"Steroids have many harmful effects on an athlete's body. The body uses various hormones to control metabolic activities. In children and adolescents, steroids can lead to early stoppage of bone growth resulting in growth ******ation which is irreversible. Steroids can increase the risk of tendon and muscle injury."

(Children and adolescents ?!?!?!)
So, it's more harmful to the taker ?!?!?
Umm, boxing even without roids is dangerous to the taker.

Let's delve further

Again, cries about harmful effects ON THE USER !!!!!

On line with my opinion -

Rethinking boxing's PEDs conundrum


"I think that PEDs use significantly contributes to the increased risks of brain injury in fighters," Dr. Goodman said. "I am hoping this will be proven one day -- soon."
Soooooooo, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING CONCLUSIVE

Moving on.......

Hey, Google.......
What advantages do steroids have in an actual boxing match ?!?

"Anabolic steroids help build muscle tissue and increase body mass by acting like the body's natural male hormone, testosterone. However, steroids cannot improve an athlete's agility or skill. Many factors determine athletic ability, including genetics, body size, age, ***, diet and how hard the athlete trains."

Why Some Athletes Abuse Anabolic Steroids -
Believing that anabolic steroids can improve competitiveness and performance, uninformed or misguided athletes, sometimes encouraged by coaches or parents, abuse these drugs to build lean muscle mass, promote aggressiveness, and increase body weight.

(Not boxing specific, doe )

Nothing scientific as far as the web can see.....

And yet, MFers want to shake their fists at the sky

Opening that Pandora’s box would be detrimental to boxing

That is a death senteance to the sport.

That is a death senteance to the sport.

Exactly but yet so many so called boxing fans siding with Haney is ridiculous
Fighters are going to be asking for guarantees or something to that nature to even get in the ring when there could be a lawsuit against you

[IronDanHamza]

Hamza, I have always respected your boxing acumen. I have always regarded you as one of the most knowledgeable and respected posters on NSB.

So please don’t start disgracing and dishonouring yourself now..You know that it has always been protocol for every fighter to submit samples of their specimen to the governing bodies following their bouts for a urinalysis.

I have no reason to lie about this. This was stated by Devin Haney himself. You don’t have to take my word for it; look it up by YouTubing it yourself.

I can’t state with moral certainty whether or not the two fighters were ever tested by the commission because I wasn’t there and neither was you.

All I am saying is what Devin Haney said. He was the one who invented the five failed drug test theory not me.

Respect you too mate, no malice here.

But right is right and wrong is wrong. If Devin Haney said that then he is wrong, or at best misinformed.

We know the facts, he failed two VADA tests. Not four, two. That's an objective fact.

He certainly would have been tested by the NYSAC. But he didn't fail a test with them, if he did, we'd know.

These are facts of the matter.

No hard feelings here either. We all good. It was a just minor misunderstanding that’s all. I agree. Haney did exaggerate the total amount of tests Ryan Garcia failed and that’s a fact.
