I can't believe Larry has turned grass. With his background he should know better.

Re: Larry O gets his licence back.
We're not in the yard in junior school, PEDs are a poison in our sport. One day someone is gonna die in the ring as a result of someone juicing. The BBBofC need to do everything they can to try and keep them out of the game.mickey1975 wrote:I can't believe Larry has turned grass. With his background he should know better.

the line "a drug cheat and a grass" crossed my mind also but I didn't post it for the exact above reason.keithmoonhangover wrote:We're not in the yard in junior school, PEDs are a poison in our sport.

Drugs cheating should carry life ban and in boxing, I would suggest, a prison sentence. That said, everybody has flaws to one extent or another.

I think the board should introduce a '100% Clean' campaign, which fighters can sign up for and agree to voluntary tests.NorthEastBoxingFan wrote:the line "a drug cheat and a grass" crossed my mind also but I didn't post it for the exact above reason.keithmoonhangover wrote:We're not in the yard in junior school, PEDs are a poison in our sport.

Re: Larry O gets his licence back.
It should be. If I was a '100% Clean' fighter, I'd take a piss test every day, to prove I am legit.DMA1987 wrote:I like it keith. Why not make it mandatory though?keithmoonhangover wrote:

Really Mickey? Once most guys get caught they look for the way out, there's not many that don't say a word.mickey1975 wrote:I can't believe Larry has turned grass. With his background he should know better.
The 'myth' of keeping things on the quiet , its all balls really. They either stitch each other up, or drop one of them in to cover for the whole lot. Then mostly they go online and spout ablout 'all sticking together'

Are License holders willing to pay higher fees for it ?
Re: Larry O gets his licence back.
from a practical POV though who's going to test all that urine. Even the cheats would sign up to it if the reality meant they'd only get tested 2 or 3 times a year. Do they take blood as well these testers? They could put the licence fees up but it wouldn't be popular would it?

I was referring to his long custodial sentance and the hatred for grasses in prison when i said him of all people.Old bones Ian wrote:Really Mickey?

Re: Larry O gets his licence back.
fair enough mate, but i would say this is him helping the board because they are actually clueless, or choose to be clueless about the PED problem in boxing.mickey1975 wrote:I was referring to his long custodial sentance and the hatred for grasses in prison when i said him of all people.Old bones Ian wrote:Really Mickey?

Re: Larry O gets his licence back.
I think they could give plenty of samples, but they wouldn't all need to be tested. The possibility of them being tested would be enough IMO.NorthEastBoxingFan wrote:from a practical POV though who's going to test all that urine.

Re: Larry O gets his licence back.
The BBBofC should try and get some funding from the government or from Europe and lead the world in drug testing. They should make it so difficult for fighters to dope.
We would also need to tackle fighters coming into the country from elsewhere.
I'll never forget how Oliver McCall refused the test after the Bruno fight.

Re: Larry O gets his licence back.
Everyone is missing the real question in all this. What's larry going to be like without the peds?!
Re: Larry O gets his licence back.
i'd move to another country. I wouldn't get back in a boxing ring and expect people to like me ffs.
Re: Larry O gets his licence back.
Glad the report is untrue for now, there shouldn't even by a hearing. If larry serves less suspension time thn Tony Oakey then it will be rediculous. The man was a serial cheater of PED's. it wasn't a one time moment of madness.The Law wrote:Larry has not got his BBBofC license back. He has a hearing in June.

Re: Larry O gets his licence back.
Im hoping the board will uphold the ban that ukad gave him even though they have suspended it.Im not keen on drugs cheat in the sport I wonder how many others he brought to light tho.I wonder if these will be given the same deal eventually if enough people turn over all the cheats will be caught.Unless they just do it on there own
