    So your favorite football player doesn't take year round random blood testing,

    and you don't have a problem with that?

    You can say you do have a problem with that, but how many NFL seasons have you boycotted?

So if every other sports is pushing towards better PED testing, and boxing doesn't how does it's integrity remain the same? What if Dana White decides to start blood testing all of his fighters? Where would that leave boxing in the eyes of most?
      Boxing is still the least organized sport in the world. Since it's inception boxing has been like the wild west, little regulation with the people with the money being those who will be in power. If you've heard of the I.B.C from back in the day, they were the closest thing that boxing has had to a regulating power and they were as shady and corrupt as anybody being controlled basicaly by mob figures. The thing is that boxing has never thrived as it had under the I.B.C. and since the governments investigation and subsequent closer of the I.B.C has never reached that level since.

      Dana White has pulled the best fighters into his game. They are thriving and I'm sure that they could afford to pay the costs of drug testing for every fighter. Boxing on the other hand is still hugely segmented with everybody trying to make good for themselves rather than make good for the sport and the sport will remain that way until there is one large governing body to regulate, promote and bring in the cash needed for this drug testing of all it's athletes.........Rockin'
