“The 40-Week Steroid Loophole: How Boxing’s Testing System Fails by Design”
Boxing is supposed to be a gentleman’s agreement. Two men step into the ring on a level playing field, each promising to follow rules. But beneath that veneer lies a bitter truth—the proverbial smelling salt under the nose:
the sport’s anti-doping system is broken—by design, not accident.
Let’s not continue to lie. In professional boxing, drug testing only takes place during training camp. That’s typically 8 to 12 weeks, a small and insignificant time period in a calendar that holds 52 weeks.
The other 40-plus weeks of the year? A free-for-all. No tests. No oversight. No consequences.
It isn’t a loophole--it’s a red-carpet encouraging cheating.
Most of the top boxers fight once or twice a year. In between fights, They are not tested. They are, for all practical purposes, free to use performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs) with impunity.
Growth hormone, designer steroids, EPO, testosterone blends—it’s the Wild West out there, but with better labs and smarter masking agents—like IV.
Once they have a date for the next training camp. They cycle off. All they have to do is know the right people, know the right doctors, the right nutritionists the right supplements suppliers and they’ll be clean before any commission ever shows up to draw blood.
Testing is a Mirage
Fans hear "drug tested" and think, “Oh, my fighter is clean.”
Reality check: boxing’s testing is a farce. Most fighters aren’t in any registered testing pool outside of camp. And even within camp, the testing is often scheduled or predictable.
Fighters and their teams know the system inside and out. And what we end up with grotesque parody of fairness, where clean fighters risk their lives against opponents who’ve had months—maybe years—of taking PEDS.
Let’s call it what it is: engineered negligence.
When you have enablers in High Places, the negligence is engineered.
Promoters don’t talk about this. Networks don’t mention it. And sanctioning bodies are too busy manufacturing belts to care about what’s coursing through the veins of their “champions.”
The unspoken rule in boxing is: Don’t ask. Don’t test. Don’t ruin the show.
What Needs to Change
Mandatory year-round testing. All top 20 ranked fighters in each division should be in a registered testing pool.
Randomized blood and urine tests. Not just during camp, but during off-season, vacations, and retirement announcements that mysteriously get walked back.
Independent oversight. Testing must be handled by third-party agencies, not commissions with conflict of interest or underpaid personnel.
Until these reforms happen, every fight is suspect. Every win is shadowed. Every punch carries the weight of doubt.
Boxing doesn’t just have a PED problem—it has a don’t-ask-don’t-tell culture. And as long as fans, fighters, and journalists pretend testing only matters during camp, we’re all complicit in the lie.

Piers Morgan Puts Nick Fuentes on the Spot Over the Holocaust — His Answer Takes an Unexpected Turn
Piers Morgan: How many Jewish people do you think died in the Holocaust?
Nick Fuentes: Maybe seven million. Six or seven million?
Piers Morgan: So you concede that six million Jews died?
Nick Fuentes: Possibly more. I’m open to believing the official narrative, but I don’t agree with imprisoning people for questioning it.
Piers Morgan: The evidence shows that at least six million Jews were murdered. Do you concede that number?
Nick Fuentes: I said it could be higher.
Piers Morgan: Should Holocaust denial laws be overturned?
Nick Fuentes: I don’t agree with them. People shouldn’t be imprisoned for speech.

Mehdi Hasan slams Republicans for their Islamophobic attacks on Abdul El-Sayed,
"A man who was born and raised here, running for office in this country, is somehow tied to terrorist groups, is disloyal, doesn't have allegiance to American"
"It's really disgusting and dangerous"
"It's insane, that every Muslim who runs for office is suddenly tarred as an extremist'
"The idea that Abdul El-Sayed is a jihadist or an extremist - he dances to Taylor Swift songs"
"He's more pro LGBTQ rights than I'm sure your Republican guest is"
My view:
Mehdi Hasan is right to call out the Republican attacks on Abdul El-Sayed. When a Muslim candidate runs for office, the debate can quickly shift from what he believes and what he would do to insinuations about whether he belongs, where his loyalties lie and whether his faith makes him a threat.
That is a double standard. Candidates should be judged by their actions, their policies and the evidence — the same standards applied to everyone else.
A Muslim politician should not have to pass an extra test of patriotism simply because of his name or religion.
And these attacks do more than target one candidate. They tell Muslim Americans that public service may come with suspicion attached, no matter how clearly they have shown who they are.
That kind of rhetoric narrows who is allowed to be seen as fully American — and it poisons political debate by replacing scrutiny with prejudice.
Hasan is right: this is disgusting, and it is dangerous
The Israelis applauding rape are disgusting.
"His wife was raped in front of him, so that they could get information from him."
Israeli academic Mordechai Kedar was confronted over a quote suggesting that threatening to rape Palestinian resistance fighters’ mothers or sisters could deter attacks, during a discussion on Piers Morgan Uncensored.
Kedar denied making the statement, but the exact wording from a 2014 Haaretz interview was read out, leaving him struggling to explain the remarks.
When pressed, Kedar attempted to shift the context of the quote, rather than directly address its wording.
British commentator Benjamin Moser then placed the remarks in the wider context of Israeli society, pointing to demonstrations defending Israeli soldiers accused of sexually abusing a Palestinian detainee and public rallies held in their support.
Moser questioned how people could take to the streets to defend soldiers accused of such horrific abuse, highlighting the disturbing public response to sexual violence against Palestinians.

Dolores Huerta spent her life advocating for the American worker, particularly for oppressed and voiceless farm workers. She was a hero without a cape. Attention must be paid. May she rest in peace. #SiSePuede

About my other social platforms,
I haven’t accepted friend requests
there for a long time because
I don’t use them much anymore.😅
It’s already hard enough to keep up
with everything here….and I haven’t
been active on the others for a long time.
I only keep them because of my friends.
Getting views and points here isn’t easy,
but there’s one thing I really love:
I can see and read the things I enjoy
in real time. In real time :) ☕️🧡
On other platforms, my posts often
received millions of views, and easy ..
5 million per post naturally.was :)
But I couldn’t always see or read
the things I loved right away.
So I gave up being active on those
platforms and chose to stay here.
Even though I still receive tons of
friend requests elsewhere,
I’m not accepting them…..sorry ..
This is the only platform where
I’m accepting new friends.
Good luck 🍀 and Have fun ☕️🍉

Good night, Punch🧡
Punch had another wonderful day,
eating well and having so much fun:)
A big thank you to everyone
who visits him every day.
I truly appreciate your efforts
Yuki :)🧡🧡🧡🍧and
There are still many anti-fans
targeting #Punch and his zoo,
and many people and accounts
are being affected by reports
and other issues.:)🤣🤣
That’s why you see so many
posts about these situations.
Some people are doing the same
thing on other platforms, too.
I think many of them simply
go around doing this without
actually having access to
the videos or photos.
So just scroll past those posts
and enjoy the fun moments!🍉🧡
At the end of the day,
we’re simply grateful that
#Punchi-kun is alive, healthy,
and growing stronger every day.
Keep enjoying your adventures,
little Punch🧡 sweet dreams 💤
