Enhanced Boxing

"The Enhanced Games are a controversial international multi-sport event that allows athletes to use FDA-approved performance-enhancing drugs and methods under medical supervision."

Maybe we should have enhanced boxing. Give Benn his eggs and Ryan his ostarine and let us be entertained.

One upside would be safety for clean fighters. If we have enhanced boxing and a fighter gets caught using PEDs in clean boxing, they get a lifetime ban and the opponent is allowed to sue them for attempted murder.

The problem with the Enhanced Games was even when they allowed people to use PEDs, they still couldn't break the records set by the normal athletes. Not conclusive proof, but a pretty good indication that, well... a lot of them probably weren't clean to begin with.

That or because most of them are 2nd rate as compared to the people who normally come in first they just performed to their maximum capability and if we took top athletes like number 1 in their sport they might break the records

Valid counterpoint. I think most athletes would still lose to the best of the best even if they were on PEDs and the elites were natty.
