It is starting to get ridiculous now with the number of high profile fighters that have pissed hot recently. Highly damaging for the sport...

I don't think think it's damaging unless one of the really big names gets caught like a Mayweather, Pac or Klitschko but they're clean based on the same tests that are catching the cheats so it's a good thing for the sport longterm.

Not completely the same tests in all cases, Peterson and Berto *although his is still under review* were caught by the VADA system which is far more precise than the methods used by the commissions! Pacquaio to my knowledge has only been tested by the athletic commissions. Mayweather and Cotto i know were tested by WADA i think who have a very similar system to VADA

Yes that's true, i was just talking about the Tarver case as that would be a standard commision test too.

Jcc jr.
Pacman
Khan.

All linked to Ariza and Roach.

Testing will let the top boys go abs catch the lower level fighters.

Tarver - if true he cheated - is the biggest fool due to having a solid career in place. Not anymore.

Tarver you fool, after the career he's had now smeared. Berto, Peterson ,Larry O, this so called minority gets bigger by the day. Harsh testing required flush out these twats.

He is a reformed crackhead isnt he?

Remarkable that he was able to make a career of pro boxing at all considering how he abused his body while still in the ams...

I bet we'll see a LOT of really good fighters start to look extremely beatable by close of this year.

Just like Pacquiao has all of a sudden.

Yep, admits it in his autobiography. Was the reason he didn't go the Olympics in 1996. Then he turned pro, thirty pounds heavier.

The preceding facts are in no way linked. At all.
