TRT… BANNED!!!

The ban is effectively immediately, stretches across the realms of boxing, kickboxing, and mixed martial arts, and not only includes future applicants for TRT, but also users who have received TUEs for TRT from the NSAC in the past.

“I’m comfortable with the information we have before us, and I would welcome and encourage the ABC (Association of Boxing Commissions) to look at this issue for all commissions in all states across the country,” NSAC Chairman Francisco Aguilar said. “I think it’s important that there be a standard set, and I think we’re not afraid of making that standard known, and then following the discussion after this point in time.”

“I do believe that this is something that gives people an unfair advantage for these actual benefits,” said Aguilar. “And I think that it’s unfair for those fighters who are lucky enough to not have to go through the process. It’s not fair to them when they have to meet a competitor who is, somehow, could be (using) an advantage.”
