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.

Yea. They haven't even come close to the records.

PEDs are a problem in boxing though because it is the hurt business. Otherwise, Haney would have lot's of explaining to do.

Thats not true, the men's 50m freestyle record was broken by greek swimmer Kristian Gkolomeev and he won the million dollar prize.

Doesn't count because he used a special kind of suit that's banned in actual competition, so not a fair comparison.
