The act had a wide range. I worked on it with AABC and John McClain advising on the correct way to rate boxers and set up the compliant boxer aspect. Most Orgs ignore it, I don't think anyone enforces certain bits.
- A toothless fed law designed more to pay tribute to Ali than right the plethora of wrongs in boxing.
The NSAC is hardly the wronged party in this tempest in a teapot scandal after sanctioning a 2wk backdated TUE for you know who and allowing him pain relief injections for his sissy hands while denying the same for Manny's shoulder that required surgery afterward.
Then the case of 30x testosterone Bey busted by conventional testing. He was fighting months later with impunity, several times in Nevada.
As a high testa producing male, I sure could tell a big difference in my physiology and personality every time I engaged in heavy wt training, so this weren't some rogue supplement, but rather well beyond any semblance of normal training that now stains commish credibility. Shoulda been BANNED!!!
And remember Berto tested for strong steroids, given a suspension, so Oscar moved his Guerrero fight to Cali where Berto was BTFO enough to land the Ghost his moneymay fight.
I could go on forever and a day over NSAC transgressions, but it's more telling how the grown up righteous lot here have adopted BALCO Vic and VADA as some kinda knights in shining armor when they don't even test themselves or boxing officials and make all tests public for commentary.
Fast Eddy has his faults, but he's rightly upending the status quo and making big fights where he ain't protecting his stars...see AJ vs Andy rematch.
